In the early days of baseball, players often made their own bats using hand-held cutters. With the advent of turning tools, standard baseball bats appeared on the playing field. From the original manual wood lathe to today's fully automatic CNC wood lathe, the production of wooden baseball bats has also been upgraded step by step in terms of quality and speed, and most carpenters and manufacturers have begun mass-producing baseball bats.

MLB wooden baseball bats are made from several different types of wood:

70% of baseball bats are made of maple

First, maple bats are hard and quite thick, allowing for extra power after hitting the ball although there is little flexibility when hitting the ball with them. It’s no surprise that sluggers often choose to use Maple Leaf bats. Bats made from maple are less likely to crack or break due to maple's density. The disadvantage of maple bats is that they retain moisture over time, which increases the w8 of the bat and reduces swing speed.

25% of baseball bats are made of ash

Ash was one of the 1st woods used in standard baseball bats. Many MLB players still use baseball bats made of ash wood because they provide greater flexibility, which increases bat speed. The disadvantage of ash bats is that their material is ring-shaped and porous, which can cause the bat to dry out and break over time.

5% of baseball bats are made of birch

Birch is another common wood used in bats. Birch is both soft and naturally durable, somewhere between ash and maple. Birch bats typically combine the durability of maple bats with the flexibility of gray bats. But its drawback is its softness, and hitting the ball often leaves dents in the shaft of the bat. In terms of durability, it is not suitable for long-term use.

Why Choose CNC Wood Lathe for Baseball Bats Making?

Are you still making baseball bats by hand? Or bothered by the inefficiency and dangers of a manual baseball bat lathe? Manual turning and sanding has become a hobby and is no longer in keeping with modern woodworking trends.

Why not upgrade to a fully automatic CNC baseball bat lathe? It is high-speed, efficient, safe and user-friendly, allowing both beginners and professional woodworkers to easily turn out high-quality personalized baseball bats in batches.

A CNC wood lathe machine is an automatic turning tool kit that can easily create personalized baseball bats. From the initial single-axis lathes to the 2-axis lathes, and the more efficient 3-axis lathes, baseball bat makers have also experienced upgrades from one to more at a time. However, We continues to innovate in the capabilities and performance of lathes. It has been continuously upgraded and launched an automatic loading attachment, which completely frees your hands and makes baseball bat making easier.

Here we focus on the dual-spindle CNC wood baseball bat making machine that is mostly used by carpenters, woodworkers, and baseball bat manufacturers.

Dual spindle CNC baseball bat lathe machine is an automatic twin-turret turning tool kit to create 2 wooden baseball bats at one time.
