COMEPLAY / HEXATI Brompton Titanium Main Frame Upgrade: 3D Printed Hinge Clamp & BB Manifold | A/C/P Line | Grade 5
Brompton Frame Revolution: 3D Printed Titanium Main Frame with Aircraft-Grade Strength
🔬 Technology Breakthrough
*"Inspired by Brompton's T Line but engineered to surpass it: We replace weak cast hinge clamps and bottom brackets with laser-sintered 3D titanium structures. Using topology-optimized Grade 5 titanium tubing (thinner walls, higher strength), we achieve radical weight reduction without compromising durability – a true first for aftermarket frames."*

📊 Weight/Price Flexibility: Choose between CNC (cost-effective) or full 3D (ultra-light) BB
Technical Differentiation Section
The 3D Printing Advantage vs. Casting:
"While Brompton's T Line uses cast components prone to micro-voids, our laser-melted titanium:
Eliminates porosity defects
Increases yield strength by 23% (per ASTM F3001)
Enables complex internal reinforcement lattices"
Grade 5 Titanium Science:
*"Wall thickness reduced by 18% vs. industry-standard Grade 9 tubing while maintaining higher fatigue resistance (per ISO 12106).
