Composites for Manufacturing Equipment
Composites for Automation
Carbon fiber composite structures are the state-of-the-art for performance. The material is stiff, lightweight and strong.
For automation, manufacturing or robotics applications this provides several important benefits:
Lightweight
By moving to lighter structural components, existing motors, bearings and actuators are capable of handling more load with an existing configuration.
High Strength
Carbon composites are aerospace grade strong. In fact they are 30x stronger than aluminum. Our clients report dramatically lower component failure rates and savings on repair costs.
High Stiffness
Stiff components mean better accuracy, improving placement, repeatability and tolerances. Carbon is 3 times stiffer than aluminum.
