The ProSort CC-60 is a mechanical device to collect, sort and stack shuttlecocks dispersed over badminton courts after training drills. For club and professional players: tedious, manual sorting is history!
500,000 people play badminton every week in England. The game is even more popular in Asia, with 250 million badminton players in China alone. Speed, stamina, strength and agility are essential for developing as a badminton player at all levels, and consistent improvement is achieved through badminton training drills. Drills are a series of repetitive shots performed by a player on one side of the court, with a coach or launcher machine feeding shuttlecocks continuously from the other side.
Although crucial to player development, these drills lead to hundreds of shuttlecocks being dispersed around the badminton court. Players must manually gather and stack shuttlecocks back into long columns, typically 20 each, ready for the next set of drills. This is a time-consuming, tedious and tiring task for players, especially straight after intense training drills. Doing this task by hand was the only viable option, until now.
ProSort is proud to present the CC-60. As the first in the Cambridge Collector (CC) series, the CC-60 is a compact, effective and efficient mechanical device collecting, sorting and stacking up to 60 shuttlecocks. Players no longer have to waste time and energy gathering and sorting shuttlecocks by hand, but instead can use an efficient, effective and entertaining device to do the task with ease.
The CC-60 has a wide entrance to maximise collection of shuttlecocks dispersed across the badminton court. A brush sweeps shuttlecocks harmlessly onto ProSort cables, consistently orienting shuttlecocks head down. A wheel-powered gear mechanism drives the cables, raising the shuttles, and dropping them into 3 ProSlot tubes. Our solution provides a high capacity, easy access and instantaneous stacking effect. Shuttlecocks are sorted and ready for immediate play.
