Mechanical structure, high-performance materials, mineral casting/mineral cast.

RAMPF's mineral casting kit "EPUSELF" is available for DIY use! Why not try mineral casting easily? ☆ It comes in a 11.24kg package, including epoxy resin (base agent + hardener) and mineral filler. ☆ The mineral filler is in a poly pail, and the resin is in a bottle. An instruction manual is also included. ☆ The material mixing ratio is set, so just mix the base agent and hardener, and then mix it with the mineral filler (if using the entire amount). ☆ The fluidity of the materials has been enhanced, so a vibrator is especially unnecessary (however, please ensure to pour it into all corners and compact it firmly). ☆ The price is a nationwide flat rate including shipping (please inquire about the selling price as it is made to order). The catalog (English version only) can be downloaded from the URL below. Of course, direct inquiries are also very welcome! https://mono.ipros.com/company/detail/2066038/catalog/

**Resolving the Labor Shortage: RAMPF Mineral Casting's Helpful Technologies** Recently, the labor shortage has become a pressing issue, and it is said that maintaining and improving productivity has become a challenge for equipment manufacturers. In addressing such challenges, I would like to introduce two points where mineral casting can contribute. The keywords are "no machining" and "no assembly": 1. **No Machining** With RAMPF's unique "high-precision transfer technology," surfaces that require micron-level precision, such as guide contact surfaces, can be achieved without machining. Additionally, the precision of the manufacturing molds is excellent, and mineral casting itself has outstanding dimensional stability due to its room temperature curing, allowing for a precision of 0.1–/1000mm without any modifications. Areas that traditionally required machining, such as mounting seats for auxiliary parts like sheet metal components, can be addressed without any processing. 2. **No Assembly** As mentioned above, due to the room temperature manufacturing, insert screws (serving the role of tapped screws) and cooling pipes can be installed beforehand before pouring in the mineral casting. Using the transfer method mentioned in point 1, guides can also be affixed here, and of course, painting is possible as well. For more details, please feel free to contact us!

The only 'domestically produced mineral casting' mass production plant is starting operations in April! We apologize for the long wait for those who have been looking forward to this. The mineral casting mass production plant, which is currently the only one in Japan, has begun operations at the Tochigi factory of Hinode Suido Kiki Co., Ltd.! It will take a little more time until full-scale mass production begins, but preparations such as test runs of the production line are steadily progressing. We are ready to start production at any time! We are also accepting requests for tours, so please feel free to contact us via DM or other means. We look forward to hearing from you.
