The U- shaped crossbow intervenes decisively on the ends of the slat, stiffening the edges and leaving more freedom in the central area. This type of approach is perfect when you want a slat with aggressive reactivity and very fast closing times.
It is recommended for configurations where:
Maximum openness is needed in a short time
The aim is to optimize the flow under maximum load conditions.
You work with high pressures and you need to reduce the risk of flutter
Thanks to its "extreme" control, the U type improves the seal during the pressure return phases and allows the reed to behave in a more "decisive" manner, with a significant reduction in closing latency times.
