The Linotype and similar Intertype machines came out with paper tape and electronic automation near the end of their lifecycles, which allowed for the news wire services to send breaking news to remote newspaper offices for prompt setting into late editions. There are so many different kinds of players looking for increased ball speed from their irons, we needed more options for them at a fitting level. The custom studios use shaft selection incredibly well to help with launch angle or slower swing speeds , but the JPX923 Hot Metal HL gives them a great new tool to work with.” CHRIS VOSHALL - Director of Product

The Hot Metal Pro irons have a slightly thinner top line and narrower sole compared to the standard JPX 921 Hot Metal irons. However, the standout difference, for me, is the reduced level of offset. In practice, the difference in control and shot shaping between JPX standard and pro irons is minimal. Both are pitched for distance and forgiveness over the playability of the MP-range. However, both offer far greater control and playability than comparable game improvement irons, such as the TaylorMade Sim-Max or Cleveland HB irons. Mizuno JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro – Golf Insider verdict The daily crucible, the dullest newspaper in Fleet Street, is suddenly taken over by media magnate Terence "Twiggy" Rathbone. Its editor Harry Stringer is 'promoted' to managing editor, and is replaced in his old job by Russell Spam. Spam then takes the paper shooting downmarket and turns the crucible into a sensation seeking scandal rag, very much in the style of the British tabloids of the 1980s. He is helped along by his ace gutter journalist, Greg Kettle, who intimidates his tabloid victims by claiming to be "a representative of Her Majesty's press" and produces stories such as accusing a vicar of being a werewolf. Throughout the first series, a running plot involved cub reporter Bill Tytla gradually uncovering an actual newsworthy story that went to the very heart of government. Both series of Hot Metal have been released on DVD. A 2-disc set of the complete series has also been released. In March 2022 the series was added to UK streaming service BritBox.

Increased Stopping Power

Similar to the standard Hot Metal irons, these are cast, not forged. The smaller head does result in a sharper and crisper feeling when striking these irons out the sweet spot. However, they are noticeably different from the buttery, soft feel of the MP irons, but beautiful nevertheless. Control & shot-shaping

The JPX 921 Hot Metal irons are Mizuno’s most forgiving and most powerful in the JPX line up. However, they are not exclusively designated for high-handicappers, rather golfers preferring a larger club head and great distance. Looks In printing and typography, hot metal typesetting (also called mechanical typesetting, hot lead typesetting, hot metal, and hot type) is a technology for typesetting text in letterpress printing. This method injects molten type metal into a mold that has the shape of one or more glyphs. The resulting sorts or slugs are later used to press ink onto paper. Normally the typecasting machine would be controlled by a keyboard or by a paper tape. In the second series, Harry Stringer had vanished in a "mysterious aircraft accident", to be replaced as Managing Editor by former daytime chat show host Richard Lipton ( Richard Wilson). The cub reporter investigating the running plot this time was Maggie Troon ( Caroline Milmoe).Usually game improvement irons are traditionally suited to players with mid-to-high handicaps although some professionals have occasionally put game improvement irons in the bag at the longer-iron end of the bag. They tend to suit players who need help with distance and forgiveness, and as such they are not best suited for players who want more feel and workability. If you really want your job to stand out from the crowd, then metallic effects or 3D textures are the way to go, nothing else quite shines like gold! Nothing else quite feels like a debossed board… NCR / Carbonless Combined with Mizuno’s vibration controlling V-Chassis and deep CG design, the JPX923 Hot Metal irons are as enjoyable and controllable as they are long. The custom studios use shaft selection incredibly well to help with launch angle or slower swing speeds , but the JPX923 Hot Metal HL gives them a great new tool to work with.” In total, twelve episodes were made and broadcast. A Comic Relief special episode was also broadcast.

This isn't just one of the best game improvement irons then, but also one of the best distance irons money can buy, with the explosive feel on impact a big confidence booster when over the ball. It also has plenty of loft variations to suit an array of golfers. All golf irons, and golf gear, goes through a thorough and comprehensive testing process at Golf Monthly. Before testing, the Golf Monthly team will usually attend product launches and meet with the manufacturer’s R&D experts to understand the new technology. Usually, when it comes to hitting the clubs, we use an indoor simulator at Foresight Sports so we can hit in a controlled environment using premium balls and a launch monitor. HoTMetaL went through several incarnations from versions 1 though 6. The Macintosh version survived until at least version 3. [3] Eventually, the product line was discontinued as an HTML editor, although the user interface lives on in XMetaL, a commercial XML editor. Seamless cup face construction delivers the deep centre of gravity needed for a high launch and controllable landing angle. Rathbone is I think an amalgam of all of the proprietors of what is known here as the gutter press, while Spam is the same as regards their editors, by far and away the worst being the Australian Rupert Murdoch.V-Chassis for mode solid feel - Mizuno's new V-Chassis delivers a more solid satisfying vibration pattern, even though the clubface is 8% thinner Increased All these line-casting machines used various alloys near the eutectic point and which typically consisted of approximately 4% tin and 12% antimony and the balance being lead. These alloys were proportioned such that the type metal would solidify as rapidly as possible at the lowest possible freezing point. As we get thinner and thinner on the clubface to enhance ball speed – the next challenge becomes sound and feel.

Once the line approaches its correct length, the operator is made aware of this by a bell or other indicator. If the line is ‘loose’ or too short, there is too much ‘white space’ for the space band wedges to fill out the line, and the matrices could possibly turn sidewise or fail to seal against each other as the machine prepares for the casting operation. If the line is ‘tight’ or too long, the elevator carrying the matrices and space bands will not seat properly in front of the mold slot. Both the Linotype and Intertype machines have two important safeties that act during the casting operation – the ‘pump stop’, which comes into play on loose lines, and the ‘vise automatic', which comes into play on tight lines. Both scenarios, if not stopped by these safety features, usually result in a “squirt” of molten type metal, encasing the matrices and the elevator in metal in the process. Not only is it time-consuming to clean up after a squirt, a tight line usually has not come down far enough to mate with the slots on the mold face, resulting in damage to the matrices. Therefore, it is considered very poor form for an operator (or the machinist who cared for the machine) to permit this to happen. The capital letters in HoTMetaL spell HTML. The term comes from hot metal typesetting which involves melting alloys into the shape of letters so they can be used by Linotype machines to print words on paper.Non-ferrous metals also originate in coke, coal, and ore burden. Coals with P content below 0.08 % are normally desired. Thermodynamics and metallurgy within the BF concentrate the trace metals into the different output streams. The more volatile elements, such as cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg), leave through the top BF gas and are removed in the gas cleaning plant (GCP), and hence these are not found in the HM. The less volatile ones, such as zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu), partition between the HM and slag. Mizuno’s new V-Chassis delivers a more solid satisfying vibration pattern, even though the clubface is 8% thinner. HM contains carbon (C), silicon (Si), manganese (Mn), phosphorus (P), sulphur (S), trace metals and some gases besides iron (Fe) which is the main constituent of HM. P and S are considered as impurities in the HM. HM contains around 3.5 % to 4.5 % of C with S content less than 0.05 % and P content can be up to 0.12 %. There are two main qualities of HM normally being produced in the BF. These are basic grade iron and the foundry grade iron. Basic grade of HM has less than 1.0 % of Si, and lower than 1 % of Mn. This type of HM is mainly used for steel making. There are several grades specified in various standards based on Si and Mn content of the HM. Foundry grade of HM is mostly being used in iron foundries as pig iron for remelting and casting into cast iron products. It contains higher amount of Si. Various standards specify composition limits for Si and Mn for different grades of this type of HM. Si content in foundry grade is much higher and usually is in the range of 1.5 % to 3.5 %. It can be as high as 4.25 %.
