【Extending the exchange cycle】 From resin molded products to "metal + antistatic PEEK coating." Increased rigidity and wear resistance of the handle, reducing maintenance labor by half.
In semiconductor and electronic component mass production lines that operate continuously for 24 hours, frequent replacement and maintenance of transport hands are a significant bottleneck that causes the entire production line to stagnate. ■Challenges of Resin Hands - Conventional resin hands wear out quickly, requiring complete shutdown of manufacturing equipment with each replacement (resulting in downtime). - Since the working environment is a "clean room," strict entry procedures for workers and pre-cleaning (cleaning and degassing) of replacement parts are essential, leading to significant waste of labor time and costs. ■Switching from Resin to "Metal + PEEK Coating" In response, we proposed "high-rigidity metal (such as SUS) hands + antistatic PEEK coating (PEEKCOAT N04blk)." As a result: - By using metal for the core material, the mechanical strength of the parts themselves is dramatically improved, preventing deformation and cracking due to repeated transport loads. - The PEEK surface layer exhibits excellent wear resistance, significantly extending the lifespan compared to resin hands. - Maintenance labor and equipment downtime in the clean room are dramatically reduced, contributing to improved overall equipment efficiency in the factory.

basic information
【Construction Method】 High-performance PEEK coating applied to metal substrates (such as SUS) 【Adopted Grade】 PEEKCOAT N04blk (with anti-static function) 【Maintenance Benefits】 ■ Dramatic improvement in wear resistance lifespan Due to the metal base, there is no damage or wear deformation at the tips like with pure resin products, significantly extending the replacement cycle. ■ Reduction of labor in clean rooms Eliminates the hassle of frequent parts replacement, reducing labor costs and time associated with entry procedures and pre-cleaning (washing and degassing) of parts. ■ Maintenance of cleanliness due to anti-static properties Possessing conductivity that dissipates static electricity, particles are less likely to accumulate on the hand itself, reducing the frequency of cleaning maintenance. *Contract processing is available for your existing metal hands.

Applications/Examples of results
The introduction aimed at improving the operating rate of mass production lines and reducing maintenance labor is progressing. 【Main Applications】 ■ Semiconductor and LCD transport robot parts for continuous operation 24 hours a day ■ End effectors for high-load and high-speed handling ■ Precision positioning jigs that are sensitive to dimensional changes due to wear 【Implementation Effects】 By replacing conventional resin-cutting hands, the lifespan of parts has dramatically improved. This reduces downtime caused by unexpected equipment stops and maintenance, contributing to an overall increase in factory operating rates.

Company information
Nikken Coating Industry Co., Ltd. has been a specialized manufacturer of functional coatings for contract processing, earning the trust of customers across various industries for 79 years since its founding. We leverage our processing technology to maximize the properties of fluororesins, such as non-stick, lubricity, and chemical resistance, providing high-performance coatings that directly address customer challenges, including "Thermo Pro Release" for thermal welding processes and "NonStick STC" for blades and precision molds. In recent years, in response to movements regarding regulations on fluorinated compounds (PFAS), "PEEK resin," which is gaining attention as a substitute for fluororesins, has become a focus. Nikken Coating Industry commercialized the world's first PEEK resin coating, "PEEKCOAT," in 1999. Based on the solid knowledge and know-how accumulated over more than 20 years, we are further intensifying our research and development efforts to explore the potential of next-generation PEEK coatings! We aim to be recognized as "the go-to for PEEK coatings" and will continue to lead the way. As "the best partner for functional coatings that builds trust through technology," Nikken Coating Industry will continue to contribute to the creation of high-quality, high-performance products.
