吉田ＳＫＴ List of Products and Services

Yoshida SKT offers "coating" and "functional surface treatment" that address concerns such as highly adhesive materials sticking to equipment and components, hindering production or reducing production efficiency. By providing surfaces with the function of being "less sticky," we aim to resolve these issues. 【Improve CFRP production processes with coating from Yoshida SKT】 ■Challenges - Cleaning tools during CFRP autoclave molding is burdensome. ■Solution - Features of optimal coating for cutting blades. ■Features of selectable coatings - Excellent release properties for epoxy resin. - Long-lasting coating effects. - Silicone-free treatment options available. ■Challenges - Release treatment during CFRP molding causes waste and unevenness. ■Solution - Features of high-release surface treatment. ■Features of selectable coatings - Low-temperature treatment minimizes damage to CFRP (mold). - Particularly strong grades with non-stick (release) properties. - Long-lasting coating effects. - Can also provide tackiness (properties that make surfaces less slippery). *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

To prevent noise in production sites and to reduce labor and weight of equipment, switching from metal to lightweight and high-strength CFRP materials is effective. However, changing materials is not always beneficial. In actual production environments, there may be challenges such as, "Once we switched to CFRP rollers, we could no longer perform the surface treatment to prevent adhesion." ■ With Yoshida SKT, improvements can be made even with CFRP rolls and jigs through coating. 【Effects of Coating on CFRP Rolls】 - Adhesive adhesion measures can be implemented, making cleaning easier. - No adhesive residue, eliminating negative impacts on products. - No line stoppages, improving production efficiency. ◆ Coatings Used ◆ ■ Super CTT Coating (Silicone-based contact area reduction coating) 【Features】 - Release properties - Cushioning properties - Tackiness ■ Super Alloy Coating (Flexible alloy coating) 【Features】 - Release properties - Slipperiness - Wear resistance; hardness: HV600 *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

■Sites Requiring Surface Treatment - Due to adhesion to transport claws and placement platforms for transported items, it has been difficult for grasped items to be released, hindering automation on the line. - Transport processes involving resin parts and hot melt adhesives before they cool and solidify, as well as label adhesive areas and food, are in a state that easily leads to sticking. ■Points of Innovation - By applying the appropriate coating, it is possible to prevent sticking of transported items. - Adhesion issues during transport are not easily resolved through soft solutions like teaching, and even if a release agent is applied to specific areas, its effectiveness can diminish quickly depending on the usage environment, necessitating frequent reapplication and increasing manual labor. In contrast, coatings improve sticking efficiently, have high functional durability, and expand the areas where robots can operate in fields requiring automation. ■Examples of Coatings for Improving Robot Transport Adhesion Issues - Bi-Coat(R) - MRS Coating (Silicone Coating) - Fluorine-based Silicone Convex Coating - Teflon(TM) Fluororesin Coating *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

- Smooth operation of the line is necessary for the automation of transport lines using robots. ■ Sites requiring surface treatment - Factories aiming for increased manufacturing efficiency and speed. - Sites where the transport line is being accelerated to match the high-speed movement of robots, raising concerns about jams and difficulties in flow. ■ Points of innovation - By applying surface treatments that improve slipperiness to guides and chutes on the transport line, we can prevent troubles such as jams and difficulties in flow. - For example, in lines where unstable shapes are supported by guides or in transport processes for products with grip, changing the slipperiness of contact surfaces through coating can smoothen transport and reduce the likelihood of sudden line stoppages. ■ Coatings to improve robot transport troubles - Bi-Coat® "Slipperiness + Wear resistance" - Convex coating for reduced contact area "Slipperiness + Reduced contact area" - Teflon™ fluororesin coating "Slipperiness + Prevention of product scratches" *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

■Sites Requiring Surface Treatment - Environments where corrosion of robot arm covers is a concern - Sterilization environments using UV - Environments requiring cleanability ■Points of Innovation - By applying a corrosion-resistant coating to robot arm covers, we protect the metal from many acids, alkalis, solvents, and other chemicals. - The surface is resistant to degradation even in special environments such as UV, making it suitable for protecting robots. - It offers superior cleanability compared to metal, allowing for safe use even in conditions where food may adhere and create a breeding ground for bacteria. - It enhances efficiency in sites where "environment" and "atmosphere" have been bottlenecks, raising concerns about equipment deterioration. ■Examples of Coatings for Improving Robot Transport Adhesion Issues - Teflon Coating (Fluororesin Coating) - Antistatic Fluororesin Coating "Safron" - Antistatic Fluororesin Coating "Safron AP+" - Organic-Inorganic Composite Coating "Cerashield" - Fluorine-based Room Temperature Coating "Cerashield F" *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*
