The hail cannon test was designed by Knittex’s team of experts because no machine could test what they wanted to see: Can Knittex’s nets survive the large, heavy hailstones falling at a high speed?
The test results show that the material does not only survive the impact of hail, but also resists it.
After thorough investigation and research into meteorological data, the Knittex team designed a cannon that fires different hailstones at different speeds to test the limits of materials. With the test, they can see that the standard is kept as high as practically possible
That’s how Knittex makes sure that every farmer is prepared for what Mother Nature throws their way.
