Achieving high-speed transport with robots. Improving adhesive troubles that hinder automation with fluorine and silicone-based release coatings.

■Coating to Prevent Adhesion of Sticky Substances Utilizing the non-stick properties of "Teflon fluoropolymer," we go beyond just coating and propose optimal treatments based on the mechanisms of adhesion for various purposes and target objects. ■Coating Resistant to Mechanical Loads Conveying tools that repeatedly grasp, transport, and place products experience significant loads. The coating must have appropriate resistance, achieved through various combinations of processing materials and methods. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

What are the methods to enable robots to exist in harsh environments? We will introduce surface treatments (coatings) that implement corrosion prevention measures such as robot covers.

■Coating Resistant to Chemicals Coatings using Teflon fluororesin and similar materials are rarely corroded by chemical agents such as acids and alkalis. Additionally, by increasing the thickness of the coating, it prevents strong chemicals from penetrating to the substrate. ■Coating with Suitable Processing Temperature for the Substrate Teflon coatings and fluororesin coatings typically undergo heat treatment at around 400°C. For robot arm covers, materials like aluminum castings can be used, and applying fluororesin or fluorine-based coatings at lower temperatures can reduce damage to the substrate. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

What types of fluororesins are suitable for applications such as non-adhesiveness, slip properties, and corrosion resistance? It is necessary to consider the characteristics and properties of the resin, as well as the selection of processing methods.

**Features and Effects** ■ Non-stick Items and dirt are less likely to adhere, and if they do, they can be easily removed. ■ Slipperiness Items slide smoothly and very lightly. ■ Chemical resistance Prevents corrosion of the substrate without being affected by most acids and alkalis. ■ Heat and cold resistance Can be used at a maximum temperature of 260°C and as low as -269°C. ■ Electrical properties Exhibits excellent properties in various electrical characteristics. ■ Flame retardancy Almost does not burn. Specifications of the coating may vary depending on usage conditions and applications. For more details, please contact us.

We solve transportation challenges with coatings that excel in lubricity and wear resistance to prevent robots from stalling.

■Coating for Improved Slipperiness By applying a "Teflon (TM) fluoropolymer coating," objects become easier to slide. Furthermore, with "Bicoat (R)," the combination of fluoropolymer with metals or ceramics enhances the wear resistance of the coating, and the "unique reduced contact area convex surface coating" can achieve a higher level of slipperiness by altering the surface shape. The improvement in slipperiness also contributes to safety measures by preventing material entanglement and component snagging.
