HEADWAY Company Overview

■ Features and Differences MXL (trapezoidal teeth / 2.032mm) and S2M (arc teeth / 2.000mm) must not be mixed due to a pitch difference of 0.032mm. MXL: Low cost and easy to replace. Suitable for unidirectional constant speed and light load applications (e.g., office equipment, conveyors). Issues include backlash during reversal, stress concentration at the tooth base, and noise. S2M: Arc teeth distribute stress, achieving minimal backlash and high quietness. Designed for high precision and high-speed forward and reverse rotation (e.g., 3D printers, semiconductor inspection, medical devices). ■ Selection and Design Points Material: For high-speed lightweight applications, use "aluminum + hard anodizing"; for high torque, use "medium carbon steel + electroless nickel." Improving runout: Ghosting during reversal and trajectory disturbances can be resolved by switching to S2M. Preventing tooth skipping: Ensure engagement of 6 or more teeth, or adopt S2M and widen the belt.

Handokwei (HEADWAY) will announce its two major strategies of "Smart Automation Technology × Green Energy Transition" at the 2026 Taipei International Automation Exhibition. It aims to support decarbonization and cost reduction. 【Two Major Driving Engines】 Smart Automation Technology: By introducing high-precision, long-life "ball splines" and image measurement devices, we will establish a high-efficiency, zero-error production chain from manufacturing to quality inspection. Green Energy Transition: - Commercial Smart Cleaning Robots: Equipped with 4-in-1 functionality and SLAM/AI. Achieves ROI recovery in 1.1 to 1.8 years through human-machine collaboration, avoiding rising labor costs. - Commercial Food Waste Processing Machines: Reduces waste by 90%, alleviating labor burdens. Complies with ISO 14064/14067 to reduce Scope 3 emissions. 【Three-Stage Policy】 - Short-term: Expand B2B sales channels to resolve outsourcing cost crises. - Mid-term: Transition to in-house development and local production of core components. - Long-term: Support the establishment of low-carbon factories through local assembly (MIT) and CO2 reduction certification. Exhibition: Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center Hall 1, 1F K1222

Basic Comparison of T Shape and AT Shape T5 / T10 (Standard Type): The tooth root is thin and designed for light loads. Stress concentrates during sudden stops, making it prone to skipping and tooth breakage. AT5 / AT10 (High Load Type): The tooth root is thickened, improving torque transmission by 30-50% at the same pitch ratio. It is optimal for low backlash, high precision forward and reverse rotation, and multi-axis robots. Points for Operation and Improvement Mixing is not allowed: Due to different tooth groove shapes, belts and pulleys must be replaced simultaneously. Change to the same pitch is recommended: When torque is insufficient, changing to the same pitch AT5 to increase strength without altering installation space is optimal rather than enlarging to T10. Improving Precision: Reducing backlash prevents response delays during frequent forward and reverse rotations. *The content of this article is based on information from specific cases, and actual application effects may vary depending on industry characteristics, specification requirements, and usage environments.
