Throughout the history of protective equipment, helmets have remained very important for safety. Recently, attention has turned to develop new helmets not only safe, but also light-weight and comfortable. Our organisation, TQ, is leading the way with our development of composite helmet moulds for lightweight ballistic protection. These molds are made with an advanced material and the latest technology to give you a helmet which offers the ultimate in protection without the extra layer of gear
Advanced materials the key to helmet mould design revolution
Material science development Mould design for helmets has been greatly influenced by the most recent advances in material science. TQ is made with industry light weight high performance composites made up of material such as carbon and fiberglass mould mixed with the resin. Not only are such materials lighter than their metal counterparts, they also carry higher strength to weight ratios. Helmets, which means helmets can be made that are lighter without compromising on safety. These materials also make it possible to have more complex patterns which are able to both absorb and spread impact - key to providing ballistic protection
Advanced Technology in MX Helmet Manufacture
At TQ, we utilize state-of-the-art technology in manufacturing composite helmets. This includes use of advanced molding technology to produce precisely the raised arched Arizona Cardinals team logo. The composite materials in our manufacturing technology are layered and then heat- and pressure-formed into the desired shape. This advancement enables the creation of helmets that are not only lightweight and strong, but fit perfectly. Robotics and automation in manufacturing also guarantee that every helmet we produce is consistent, and is the best we know how to make
Ballistic Protection Reinforced with High Performance Lightweight Composites
Increasing ballistic protection while minimizing weight is one of the key objectives of our m88 helmet designs. We accomplish this by providing the helmet with a greater capacity to absorb shock using lightweight materials. For military or law enforcement who don’t want to be weighed down by any more gear than is cleanly necessary. What we do know is that our helmet is tested again and again to surpass all safety testing and guidelines, including the CPSC standard for bicycle helmets
From Steel to Composite
Traditionally, helmets were constructed mostly out of steel, which provided good protection but was heavy to wear. The jump from steel to composites represents a huge step forward in helmet technology. Composites provide the same or better level of protection as steel, at a fraction of the weight. Not only does this transition make the strap more comfortable to the wearer, but also increases the user's overall performance in the field through fatigue reduction
Innovative Mould Making for Ultimate Lightweight Protection
We believe at TQ, that innovation is the key to our being able to manufacture the best lightweight protective wendy helmet. Our mold making there is other technology to be able to insert multi-material into a mold. This multi-material construction not only improves protection but also adds a level of light weight. We also actively test out new materials and technologies that can further expand what's possible in helmet construction. Through this commitment to side plate innovation, we continue to be at the forefront of ballistic protection.
