What is CNC machining? What are its benefits?
CNC is a digital carving technique that greatly enhances the precision and durability of products. Currently, most manufacturers of gear heads still rely on plastic and die-casting processes, but we are the first to produce a CNC gear head.
What is the material of this gear head?
It is made of high-quality aluminum alloy, including the knobs and other components. It is resistant to low and high-temperature environments (-30°C to 60°C).
What is the difference between a gear head and a regular ball head?
A gear head is ideal for demanding photography, providing high precision and fine-tuning capabilities. In contrast, a regular ball head is more prone to angle changes and potential loss of focus with even slight movements.
Tips for Extending the Lifespan of a Geared Tripod Head: Handle the geared head knobs carefully, adjusting them within a 120-degree range per adjustment. If you encounter resistance, avoid using excessive force to protect the internal delicate structure.
