New! A space efficient and cost effective alternative for bicycle assembly

TCS SPOKE

New for carbon wheel production

TCS spoke

Holland Mechanics designed and patented the TCS spoke. It carries a correctly oriented square section that our machine can grip, which is now correctly oriented. The TCS carbon spoke are made by Sapim and Alpina under licence, so you can specify it for your wheels today.

TCS gripper that grips the square of the carbon spoke, preventing torsion and spoke damage

WHAT THE TCS SQUARE DESIGN CHANGES

1

A surface built to be gripped

The TCS gripper closes on the square and on nothing else, so no torsion ever reaches the carbon spoke.

 
2

The nipple turns, the spoke does not

Tension goes in with zero wind-up, on round and bladed carbon spokes alike. No damage, no breakage.

 
3

Held means controlled

With the spoke fixed, the machine can tension, center, stabilize and correctly measure the wheel as one sequence.

 
4

Aligned square, accurate measurement

The square has to face the gripper in the right orientation, that is where the machine engages from, this goes hand in hand with bladed spokes.

The square has to be oriented correctly for the machines to grip and measure it.
