PRINCE PRECISION TUNING CENTER FEATURES
The Prince Precision Tuning Center or "PTC", allows you to measure the 3 most critical characteristics of a racquet: weight, balance and swing weight. RACQUET SPORTS INDUSTRY MAGAZINE REVIEWA review of the Prince Precision Tuning Center featured in the April 2006 issue of the highly respected Racquet Sports Industry Magazine. Here's what they had to say about it:
The scale measures mass in grams. The clear glass platform is about the same size as other scales, but on the PTC, there are two flip-out "wings" to support oversize racquets, a very nice touch. The large LCD screen shows the scale reading with one-half gram resolution. Readings are accurate to within one gram. The balance board measures racquet balance in centimeters and inches, and the scale is etched into the glass for good legibility. The front of the balance bar is flush with the front of the PTC, but it slides out to handle extra-wide racquets. The surface of the steel balance beam is slightly textured, which helps reduce slippage between the bar and the racquet. The swingweight tester features the industry-standard spring-loaded snap-over clamp to hold the racquet handle. After mounting the racquet, you simply rotate the racquet to the extreme left and hold it until the PTC beeps, then release the racquet. The read-out appears on the LCD screen, both as a numeral and as a scale that reads from 0 to 400. The swingweight tester makes use of a state-of-the-art optical sensor for generating readings. Swingweight readings are in kg·cm2, and correspond with industry-standard readings from other machines, so you'll know immediately if you're in the ballpark or not. The PTC can be configured to allow swingweight testing of racquetball racquets, which is difficult or impossible on some other machines, and the range of swingweight readings is wide enough that you can test everything from badminton racquets to super long, super head-heavy tennis racquets. In the case of the latter, the scale at the bottom tops out at 400, no matter how much higher the actual reading shown on the numerical display. Readings are accurate to within 2 kg·cm2. The PTC comes with a calibration bar that allows you to check both the scale and the swingweight tester. Adjustments are easily made with the included screwdriver. The PTC also comes with a translucent cover, an owner's manual, and a one-year warranty. The voltage is selectable between 110V and 220V."
