MakeYour Small Robots Much Smaller April.13, 2018

We make rough-surface shims.
When you use it for your small robot joints, what will happen?

With its rough surface of shims, namely with their higher friction, joints become tighter and  rattling between the jointed parts will be reduced.
 If you use 4 bolts in one joint with the current joint method, our rough-suraf shims may help you to use only 3 bolts in the same joint. Or joint parts may be smaller.

This way if you have higher-friction shims, the number of parts may be reduced and joint parts may be smaller.  This brings abour cost efficiency.

Our high-friction shims are:
- Base material is high tensile stainless steel like SUS304H, thickness from 0.1mm.
- They have about 50 micron thick layer with rough surface on both surface of the base matrial.

Friction Pad, Enforcing Friction and Grip Jan. 19, 2018



All of our belts are manufercutered on our plant in Hamamatsu-shi Shizuoka.
Most belts are shipped directly from this factory to our customers.

Other products like  ”Super-Thin Friction Pad” , however , are usually shipped from Dymco in Yokohama.

This pad is thin and rough face. 
It is inserted between two connecting parts like the base and the nut.
Due to its rough surface this tie and connetion becomes tight.
Good example is a scalar robot.  
Its arm junction is made up of several parts.
When a friction pad is inserted, connecion of these parts become tight.
Furthermore, size of these parts cannne smaller,
becasue the grip is strengthened, conneion areas become smaller.
This makes the entire robot compact and light.

This friction surface is possible for many parts.
Chuck parts, high-friction roller are another examples.

By the way when we packed these pads, we found a lucky heart.

One of the leading packign material maker in Japan presents the heart-shaped buble wrap at the very rare rate, almost one-ten-thousandth.
The sense of humor  makes me smile and I get more motivated for my work !
