Handcraft meets high tech
Effortless Playing, Fast and Direct Reaction!
The trombones, resulting from daCarbo’s research are remarkably easy to play in all registers at supreme sound quality. They allow excellent articulation and direct control.
The carbon fiber outer slide can never bend or dent and is manufactured much straighter than a brass trombone slide. As a result, the gap between the outer and inner slide can be held at a minimum, allowing only enough space for lubricant. Furthermore, the new carbon fiber outer slide is extremely light, giving you the utmost comfort in performance.
This new technology enhances the sound, speed, and comfort of your playing experience.
The daCarbo trombones are made with the highest precision and are therefore very durable and easy to maintain. They are an absolute eye-catcher and can be played in such a relaxed way that you can concentrate on the music instead of the technical aspects.
The unique sound of the daCarbo Trombone warms up the entire room. Every note sounds rich and clear. The Trombone is easy to play even in the high registers. The horn behaves very evenly over all registers and dynamic levels.
daCarbo has developed an injection process for the production of complex tube geometries from carbon materials. The components of the daCarbo trumpets produced at Nägeli Swiss AG have a perfect surface quality inside the pipe. The process guarantees a consistent, uncompromising quality, more precise than is possible with traditional instrument manufacturing techniques. In every instrument, however, there is still exact craftsmanship and thus the love of the instrument maker.
Carbon
Carbon fibers consist almost exclusively of the element carbon. The atoms are arranged in microcrystals which are aligned longitudinally to the fiber axis. This alignment makes the fibers stiffer than steel at a four to five times lower density. Therefore, these fibers are particularly interesting for lightweight construction.
To take advantage of these properties, the fibers, which are more than 10 times thinner than our hair, must be kept within one component. This function is performed by a plastic matrix in which the fibers are embedded. A good carbon component has a fiber content of more than 50%.
However, a carbon component becomes particularly easy not only because of the excellent ratio of stiffness to density, but also because of the ability to align the fibers along the loading direction. This minimizes the use of materials.
daCarbo does not use the freedom of fiber orientation and wall thickness distribution in its instrument components for reasons of weight but to optimize the wall vibrations of the musical instrument.
