Customer's concerns and problems / Before
Our proposals and improvement effects / After
We made a proposal for ceramics using Asuzac’s cavity-integrated technology.
Using the integrated cavity technology, it is possible to remanufacture a large, high-strength but very light suction End Effector / Handling Arm.
The suction End Effector / Handling Arm used to be replaced once a year in SUS steel, but after the change to ceramics, the frequency of replacement became once a few years, resulting in cost reductions, reduced replacement time and productivity UP.
Point of the proposed example / Point
The point of this case is that the service life has been extended more than twice as long by using ceramics from metal materials.
By taking advantage of the light weight, high rigidity, and high strength that are characteristics of ceramics, it is possible to achieve excellent effects.
The Fine Ceramics Division of ASUZAC Corporation, which operates the Ceramics Design Laboratory, handles everything from material development and preparation to design and manufacture, as well as surface treatment, inspection, and cleaning.
We can also offer our own coating-technology for adding functionality to ceramics materials, as well as the selection of materials such as ceramics materials with high heat resistance and conductivity, and high-purity alumina and SiC that are highly pure and prevent contamination.
If you have trouble with the existing suction hand, please feel free to contact us.

Customers who used to use suction End Effector / Handling Arm with SUS bonding specifications consulted about the need for frequent replacement due to SUS peeling during use.
