Challenge to higher speed and higher accuracy
Feature of our composite materials
- Material with high specific stiffness (Young’s modulus/density)
- Excellent vibration damping
- It is possible to match the linear guide used and the thermal expansion.
Name of our composite material
- AC-Albolon (aluminum borate/aluminum composite)
- AC-Alsic (silicon carbide/aluminum composite)
- AC-Alcon/new material under development (composite material of silicon/aluminum)
Solution to a challenge
< Problem > | < Problem resolution > | ||
---|---|---|---|
If you are using aluminum |
![]() |
By changing to Albolon and Alcon, it has the same density and Young’s modulus as aluminum, and has the same vibration damping performance as cast iron. |
![]() |
If you are using cast iron |
![]() |
By changing to Albolon, Alcon, and Alsic, the density is equivalent to that of aluminum, and the Young’s modulus is comparable or higher than that of cast iron (AlSic). |

Trouble with heating and cooling
Features of our material
• Technology to wrap heater wires and water cooling pipes in molten aluminum (Casting)
• By casting with molten aluminum, the air layer between the aluminum contacts is eliminated, greatly improving thermal conductivity and heat uniformity.
• By sandwiching a mica heater between the upper and lower cooling plates, a structure that
integrates both heating and cooling is possible. (example: Heating & Cooling plate)
Application
- Heater (casting)
- Cooling pipe (Joint and casting)
