Example Applications of  Futaba's CFRP PLATE

This example shows a case in which the material reduces the weight of an end effector component. Even robots with small payloads achieve the targeted production capacity.

​

Increased workpiece payloads attributable to lighter hand components eliminates the need for large robots and the associated capital investment, and also minimizes power consumption.

Reducing the weight of the guide rail doubles conveying speed and boosts production efficiency.

Compared to aluminum breadboards, breadboards made of Futaba's CFRP PLATE exhibit lower reflectance over a broader range of wavelengths. The material is ideal for use in breadboards for experiments involving optics, as base plates for precision instruments, and other assembly applications.

Use of this material reduces the weight of load bearing assembly jigs. The light weight achieved reduces the strength required for operation (making it easier for female workers), improves the work environment and boosts productivity.
