The most mind-blowing part to me is the combination of low and high-tech. They have a robot arms to lift and move the pressure vessels in one step, but the molds were first made, held together with binder clips that a person has to hand-clamp on and off!

[@d.b.pooper5276]

I particularly enjoyed the precision rag at 12:22.

[@CrankyCorvid]

Came here to say much the same. And some poor guy has to manually pour the solution for the weights into the molds, but at other points the main body and color layer are done via machine? And people have to manually screw on the bolts holding the body molds together, then unscrew them?? And why are there those stems after the bodies and top layers are cured so long? Why can’t the machines measure out just enough material so there’s not so much that has to be shaved off (I can see leaving a much shorter stem to ensure there’s enough material to form a perfectly round ball)? So many points involving manual labor, so many questions.

[@rickalford]

This brings back a lot of memories as in the early 90’s I learned to drill bowling balls and had my own pro shop, eventually drilled for highly talented tournament bowlers. I drilled balls for almost 20 years. This particular ball that they are manufacturing is a high-end ball with a symmetrical or non-symmetrical weight block which allows the driller to position that block in a location That will handle different oil conditions for the bowler plus allowing them to hook or not hook the ball more or less. If you notice on the label of the box each ball at the end of the process is weighed in a way that tells the driller where the center of gravity is, where and how the weight block sits, how much top weight is Positioned in various places on the ball and allows for more flexibility in the drilling process. The simple “ house balls“ that bowling alleys carry for every day bowlers to use off the rack have a pancake weight block or no weight block at all and the process is 90% straightforward and easier as it’s just a simple solid pour and a clean up label and shine. Nice video as it brings back many memories of my pro shop in Alaska.

[@backslash_iii]

Thanks for the extra details - I had so many questions about what was going on!

[@rickalford]

You are welcome@@backslash_iii . Bowling and it's equipment can be very simple or super complicated depending on the level you take it. Pause the video at 12:27 and you'll see a round dot and a horseshoe marker. Dot is the top of the weight block and the horseshoe mark is the CG or center of gravity of this 15 lb ball. All very important in the layout of drilling this ball. Afternoon 2 games with you friends having fun or bowling 30+ games a week preparing for a marathon tournament on Sat and Sun where you could bowl another 15 games a day. Lot's of super glue on your thumbs and fingers to seal or prevent the blisters and cuts. I can remember traveling from AK to Reno for big tournaments with 12 bowling balls all drilled different to bowl on whatever oil condition was thrown at you. It can be joy or it can be heartache but were always prepared. One of my 300 games in Reno at the big Bowling Stadium was a highlight.

[@Doxymeister]

I remember getting my first custom-made ball for my 22nd birthday. Really beat the heck out of using house balls! I was never a great bowler, but we bowled in two leagues, had a fine time bowling, eating burgers and hanging out with friends. I'm old and crippled now, but this brought back wonderful memories for me too.

[@bushratbeachbum]

[@Qingeaton]

When I was a kid in 1980, I drilled bowling balls for a large retailer in St. Louis, Mo. . They came in without the finger holes and my job was to drill them out for the customer. There are quite a few ways to screw that up, but apparently, I was pretty good at it, because after a few months being there and doing it, ALL bowling balls were then done by me, when it was whoever was working at the time before that. You had the size of the holes, the space between them, and the angle at which they were drilled to account for. All variables that had to be perfect for a perfect feel. I enjoyed it.

[@redwater4778]

When you were a kid bowling balls were made in America.

[@Qingeaton]

@@redwater4778 Yes they were, and they were kind of expensive really, so if someone screwed up the drilling, it was a loss for the company. They were sent back to be "refilled", but then resold for a lower price because of it.

[@flogrown2014]

That’s the core. In a reactive ball they are either symmetrical or asymmetrical. That, along with how the ball is drilled, decides when, and how much, hook the ball has. The cover stock also comes into play with those things.

[@thedarkknight1971]

It's fascinating to see how there are MANY different and weird shaped (and misshaped) cores within a bowling ball to give it different spin and 'Curving' control when bowling. Until a few years back I thought they were 'Just round balls' until I saw an episode of TVs 'How It's Made'. It also showed how they tailored finger holes for each customer. It made me think "Ohhh, right, THAT'S how they do it!". 😏 😎🇬🇧

[@delphireactor]

It's amazing just how much science goes into it. I have four of them myself, each with different cores and coverstocks -- not to mention the oil conditions of the lane will make them react and hook differently. When people tell me they suck at bowling, I always respond with the fact between the shitty house balls and awful shoes, there's a glass ceiling on how good people can be. Just having holes drilled to match your hand makes a stunning amount of difference. You don't have to expend so much energy just gripping it, wearing your hand out in the process.

Bowling is very popular in the ROK. 😉

[@PIEDUDE17]

​​@@danielkokal8819 bowling ball technology has changed drastically in the last few decades. Bowling lanes are oiled before every league and the oil on the lane can vary in length and volume. Think of the ball you see in the video as a sponge, as the outer layer (cover; what the red material was in this video) is designed to soak up oil so the ball can "hook" at the end of the lane to produce an optimal angle for throwing strikes. Over time, the cover of the ball soaks up oil which makes the motion both later and less overall, you can "bake" a bowling ball in a temperature regular oven (usually sits around 130-140°F) to remove some of this oil but over time the cover stops being able to absorb oil. Because of this, bowlers tend to get a new ball every 1-5 years. There are also different weight blocks inside of the ball as you saw at the beginning that let's the ball make the motion i mentioned; how it makes the motion changes with the core shape. That, along with different cover formulations that are meant to make the ball "read" the lane at different distances makes it so bowlers may have multiple different bowling balls; if you ever watch bowling on TV, you'll see the professionals use multiple different balls for different purposes. Hope that helps.

Chuck and I worked together in a small tool room about fifty years ago. He was a serious bowler, and thought that he needed to re-drill one of his spares to his specs. A Bridgeport mill and a small plastic bucket were the drilling fixtures. We had much more enjoyment before and after the failed experiment, than he did 300 games. This was quite a process to watch and enjoy. That must be a magic ball at the end, or a magic glove on that little girl’s hand.

볼링공 제작과정 0:47 코어재료 배합(코어: 볼링공 중심부에 있는 축, 비대칭 또는 대칭 코어 / 원반형 등이 있음, 볼링공이 꺽이게 되는 훅성을 만들어내는 중요한 부분) 1:22 코어 몰드에 코어재료 넣기 2:22 코어 쇼트 작업(코어 표면을 거칠게 만들어 나중에 이너쉘과 잘 결합이 되도록 하는 과정) 2:56 코어 핀 타공(핀의 위치가 중심에서 가깝거나 먼 정도에 따라 볼링공의 스펙을 결정) 3:10 코어의 불필요한 부분 제거 3:35 코어를 볼링공 속공인 이너쉘 몰드에 결합 (볼링공은 코어 +이너쉘 + 외피 또는 코어 + 외피로 이루어져있음) 4:18 속공 몰드에 이너쉘 주입(이너쉘은 부풀어 오르는 특성이 있으며 부풀어오르는 시간을 조절하여 이너쉘의 밀도를 조정함. 볼링공의 무게에 관여함. 같은 파운드의 볼링공에 약간의 무게차이가 있는 이유) 5:38 속공 주입구 제거작업 5:54 쇼트작업이 완료된 속공(외피와 결합이 잘되록 하는 이유) 6:15 속공을 볼링공 외피(커버스탁) 몰드에 결합 6:29 볼링공 외피 재료 주입(외피 즉 커버스탁의 스펙에 따라 볼링공의 마찰력에 결정적인 영향을 줌) 6:52 외피 재료를 굳히는 작업완료 7:51 볼링공 외피의 불필요한 부분 제거 8:22 볼링공의 핀위치 구멍(다른색으로 채워 넣어서 핀위치를 표시를 한다) 8:42 볼링공을 완전한 구형태로 깍아내는 과정(볼링공의 지정된 크기에 맞추어서 깍아낸다) 10:02 1차 샌딩 작업 10:32 볼링공 사이즈 규격 검사 (두개의 링중 하나는 통과해야하고 하나는 통과하면 안된다.영상에는 하나만 나옴) 10:40 영상에선 생략된 부분이 있음 (CG / PAS(mass bias) 위치 표시 등의 내용 :깊은 내용이라.. 볼러들도 어려워하는 거라 생략... 저도 자세히는 모름) 10:57 볼링공 브랜드 및 네이밍, USBC 넘버(공인구 인증번호) 각인 11:19 각인 부분에 컬러 채워넣기 11:45 단계별 샌딩작업: 거친 사포에서 >> 고운 사포로 (마지막에 폴리싱 작업이란것도 있는데 코팅이라고 생각하면됨. 영상의 볼링공은 코팅작업은 없는 볼링공) 외피 가공에 따라 볼링공의 마찰력에 영향을줌 13:24 지공전 엄지덤 사이즈 체크 및 스판 확인 (엄지홀로 부터 중약지 한마디까지 거리) 13:43 지공작업(전문지공사 혹은 볼링 프로 분들의 영역이라 잘 모름. 맡기면 알아서 잘해주심) 끗~

[@Eatandtravle]

03:30 핀홀이 코어마다 천치만별이네요… 공마다 무게중심이 다르고 회전각 차이가 있겠네요 조금더 정교한 공이 한극애서 만들어지길 바랍니다

Amazing work they do, could they use more robot or automation to bypass some manual tasks in this process?

Wow ! Didn't think I'd watch the whole video !

[@michaelougarezos8963]

very well made and a pleasure to watch how it was done. Great video thank you

[@MSSmith1022]

I remember right after getting my first bowling ball in the late 1970s, I had a really weird hook. I'm right-handed and my ball should hook right to left, but there were times it would cross the lane about halfway down and then hook left to right and other times it would hook right to left into the pins. I was also able to get it to go straight if I really needed it to and I ended my bowling season with a 198 average.

[@TheLunarLumen]

Is a 198 average good in bowling? I've never bowled before.

[@MSSmith1022]

@@TheLunarLumen it's about mid-point for an Amateur bowler (170-220). The average is based on the total pin count (Points) for three games for the season divided by the total number of games in the season. For a member of the American Junior Bowling Congress (AJBC) a season average of 198 is considered slightly above average.

[@TheLunarLumen]

@Mike Smith Awesome. That sounds like fun to go bowling. It's on my bucket list now. Thank you for responding. 🙂👍

[@MSSmith1022]

@@TheLunarLumen just to let you know, the average for the casual/beginner bowler is around the 120 to 175 range.

[@sunnidays]

@@TheLunarLumen Bowling is fun and can be frustrating only if you let it be, my bowling ball has always been familiar with the gutters LOL - not great bowler, but always enjoyed it --- Have a great time

I used to work at a manufacturing bowling ball company I worked in every department over 5years before closing down in baltimore maryland faball home of the hammer bowling ball

[@motioninmind6015]

Interesting! I've been looking for information on early bowling ball manufacturing processes (I know that sounds silly). Maybe you'll know this. Do you know how Brunswick made their bowling balls in the early days? The supposedly used a mercury bath to polish the balls to perfect roundness, but the process seems to be lost (or hidden).

[@christr339]

​@@motioninmind6015 Maybe all who knew about this process died due to Mercury poisoning?!🤔

[@noahpennington9861]

That’s really cool! I’ve been bowling about 8 years and just two years ago I got a Faball Blue Hammer which I’ll still use on shorter patterns when my Purple is too much

[@alveolus2854]

​@motioninmind6015 have you learned more on this? They also used lead powder in the middle to better place the centre of momentum (?) for accurate spin.

As a former bowler, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I loved bowling and would still be doing it if not for arthritis in my hands.

[@t-time00]

I always think: Does the world need that much bowling balls, so a company is producing them 24/7?

[@AlphaTroll]

I sometimes think, does the world need that many hammers and screwdrivers? Don't they last a lifetime? Then I walk into a Harbor Freight and it's always full of people buying these simple tools, imported from China and sold for cheap.

[@craigarnold323]

@@AlphaTroll Set that to music, ; )

[@xyzbuge]

I buy 6-10 a year. I think that is average for most avid bowlers

[@Yoda052]

I love the high tech plastic cup starting sequence.

[@pat_welsh]

You know what would be a cool twist to this? If the machines that have the suction cups on them if they went completely berserk and started throwing balls over the factory. And when someone comes to fix it they throw balls at that person as well.

[@processarea91]

I never knew bowling balls had such a process! Do you think the color or weight matters more for a perfect strike?

[@Sharon_for_real]

Seems like a lot of pointless use of robots tbh

[@m.dewylde5287]

Wow! Precision and saving time in order to increase productivity and quality must mean nothing to you. But you comment on a video about high-tech . How stupid the Japanese engineers must be, compared to YOU!

Made in south Korea, yet at 13:54 the girl marking the ball for drilling is using a "Pro Sect" measuring device "Made in USA" !!!!! That kinda warmed my heart.

[@michaelgoble8200]
