Super lightweight air shaft "Air Capsule" *Case study introduction page available!
Air capsule
Lightweight, precise rotation, long lifespan for cost reduction and safety measures! Usable in clean rooms as well.
The "Air Capsule" is an ultra-lightweight air shaft that features a hollow shaft with an integrated structure of the journal section and the main body, into which a high-density urethane capsule is inserted. It allows for precise rotation without core wobble, making it less prone to failure and ensuring a long lifespan. It is highly compatible with metal and plastic cores, enabling the secure transmission of high torque. Currently, we have a website showcasing case studies available! You can view it from the link below! ★ Himecs Case Study Introduction Page http://www.himecs.com/case.html 【Features】 ■ Approximately 50% lighter compared to the lug-type tube (with the same material) ■ Suitable for use in clean rooms ■ Reduces core wobble by fixing the core at the axis center as the force point ■ Enables use in a vacuum by utilizing high-density urethane ■ Achieves lightweight design (e.g., 15 kg for a total length of 2340 mm) The air shaft in the photo has a total length of 2000 mm and weighs 14.4 kg. By using urethane molded parts for the core gripping section and CFRP for the main shaft, we have realized a lightweight air shaft. *For more details, please refer to the catalog.

basic information
【Case Study Website Content】 ◎ Example of Introducing a Primary Raw Material Manufacturing Line *First external link case Due to the use of heavy shafts, a primary raw material manufacturer contacted us with concerns about work efficiency, and we introduced air shafts for them. ◎ Example of a Film Transfer Device Manufacturing Line *Fifth (last) external link case They wanted to add a 6-inch option to a device handling 3-inch products. Other shaft manufacturers said it would weigh around 70 kg, but due to handling difficulties, they inquired if it could be made lighter. *For more details, please refer to the catalog.
