Pressing process
This is the process of making the main parts that form the framework of the body, such as the ceiling and hood.
In the pressing process, a single steel plate is cut and formed into a three-dimensional body shape using a press machine.
Servo Press Synchronous Belts Ultra PX Belt HY Type
Servo presses operate continuously and are subjected to frequent impact loads, so belts required must be highly rigid and strong.
Ultra PX Belt HY Type is a belt that has achieved significantly higher strength and rigidity through the use of a hybrid core wire made of glass and carbon. It has achieved a transmission capacity improvement of approximately 1.3 to 2.0 times that of the conventional HC Type. This also allows for downsizing of equipment and makes it more compact.
