Altair HyperWorks platform has enabled Cleveland Golf to revolutionize driver design with the release of the HiBore XL. By utilizing Altair’s advanced simulation and design technology, Cleveland Golf was able to push the boundaries of traditional design limits and create a driver that enhances sound quality, MOI, and forgiveness.
Through the use of Altair HyperWorks platform, Cleveland Golf was able to explore a wide range of feasible designs, ultimately leading to the development of the HiBore XL. Altair’s technology allowed the team to perform concept evaluation, rapid design exploration, physics-based simulation and optimization, and design for manufacturing, giving them the flexibility to innovate in new ways.
The collaboration between Altair and Cleveland Golf resulted in the creation of a custom ribbing optimization process that maximized stiffness and minimized mass in the HiBore XL driver. This process helped improve the club’s sound quality, center of gravity, and MOI, showcasing the power of technology-driven innovation in sports equipment design.
The HiBore XL driver represents a breakthrough in golf club design, breaking free from traditional geometry while maintaining compliance with USGA club requirements. The collaboration between Altair and Cleveland Golf demonstrates the effectiveness of combining advanced technology with industry expertise to create cutting-edge products.
