[Solution Case] Development with a Reversal of Thinking

Introducing examples of innovations that have realized production previously thought impossible through a shift in thinking!

At Okabe Maika Industrial, we primarily produce mica tape by laminating film and glass cloth with mica. However, we received a request from a customer to laminate with a substrate that has a strength we have not previously encountered. The substrate requested by the customer had the following issues: 1. Due to its lack of strength, using it in the normal lamination process resulted in wrinkles. 2. When applying adhesive and drying it through heat treatment, the substrate would stretch. To address these challenges, we optimized the manufacturing process by implementing 1. optimization of the transport path and 2. introduction of a heat-pressing method through optimization of the lamination roll. We achieved results that satisfied the customer while also meeting the proposed cost. [Solution] ■ We implemented optimization of the manufacturing process by introducing a heat-pressing method through optimization of the transport path and lamination roll. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
