The First Truly Durable Badminton Shuttlecock Is Here~
We often see nylon shuttlecocks, which are quite resilient and long-lasting. To explore the possibilities of 3D printing, I decided to create a shuttlecock using TPU, carefully referencing the dimensions and weight specifications of official shuttlecocks. After several iterations, I managed to achieve a weight of around 8 grams—compared to the standard 5 grams for a regulation shuttlecock, this is already pushing the limits.
Under wind tunnel testing, the shuttlecock generates spin, helping to stabilize its flight path.
To ensure the right weight, avoid tweaking any parameters other than material settings—and refrain from adding extra supports.
I included a support structure in the design; once printing was complete, I simply removed the cylindrical support and the “flow channels” on top.
