Design my own Motorcycle helmet
Component I: Nolan Factory Tour
Background
Whenever CIMA Overseas, the U.S. importer and solution center for Nolan Helmets inside U.S.A., asked basically'd like a personal tour of this Nolan helmet factory while I was in Milano for EICMA tv show, we normally jumped within chance.
In a past life, We worked in manufacturing after which as a manufacturing specialist, traveling all around the U.S. and assisting makers find out about and apply brand new technologies, procedures and practices.
I must say I enjoy checking out factories and seeing firsthand just how products are made - it's always amazing, awe-inspiring and great.
People never have a clue about how precisely daily items are made and it's a real pity that teenagers aren't getting an opportunity to discover what must be done to create, manufacture and offer products - while making a revenue.
Should they did, we'd definitely do have more interest in manufacturing as a vocation.
But even with all my production experience and visits to actually hundreds of manufacturers all over the world, I'd never been in a bike helmet factory.
The closest I got was in 2008 when I went to MXL Industries, a business in Pennsylvania which makes face shields for Shoei as well as others. That check out was explained during my article "steps to make a Motorcycle Helmet Visor".
Nolan Motorcycle Helmets
Nolan gave me complete accessibility all of these manufacturing facility and processes and I also am profoundly grateful the time and effort help with by of all of the Nolan staff and in their very gracious web hosting of my go to.
We invested a complete time touring the polycarbonate and composite helmet production facilities and so they responded all my concerns and allowed us to take many pictures and plenty of movie.
Ivano Prudente, Nolan's Area Sales Supervisor and Marco Mazza, Export Area management for Nolan, led me through two split facilities in Brembate di Sopra, Italy, northwest of Bergamo and about 65 kilometer from my resort in Rho, beyond Milano.
