Case Studies

Customer’s Requirements

Develop a larger robot arm while maintaining the stiffness required for precise substrate handling.

Super Resin’s Solution

Optimized the laminate design by combining multiple types of carbon fiber to achieve the required rigidity while balancing cost.

Material

CFRP

Customer’s Requirements

Develop a lightweight, high-precision pointing mechanism capable of supporting atmospheric carbon dioxide observation from orbit.

Super Resin’s Solution

Designed and manufactured the mirror drive unit for the satellite pointing mechanism. We also developed in-house copper plating and cutting processes for the polyimide (PI) film used in the flexible printed circuit (FPC), enabling custom FPC geometries optimized for the system design.
Technical Highlights
• Reduced weight through the use of foam-core CFRP
• Achieved a lightweight, high-rigidity structure using Cesic® (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Silicon Carbide)
• Improved drive performance and reliability through the development of a cable wrap mechanism
• Established in-house manufacturing and assembly of the FPC
