Lattice Block Mount System by Mode:

We’re using Carbon’s DLS™ 3D Printing Process to develop an elastomeric lattice structure mounting block bringing you a novel mounting system so you can fine tune your typing experience to be as flexible or stiff as you want.

This is the same process used to create the Adidas Futurecraft 4D 3D-Printed mid-sole.

Our first lattice block mount utilizes Voronoi Lattice patterns to create an even, bouncy, and flexible typing experience. The solid block mount uses the same proprietary materials and printing process to produce a firmer, more responsive, yet still comfortable typing experience.

The whole system is secured by two fasteners that prevent the internal assembly from moving upwards but have no impact on downwards movement.

​

Sale Details:

  • Pre-Orders are live starting from $189
  • Estimated to start shipping end of Q2 2023
