Raw Material Research

Thorough research of raw materials is the first step to produce high-quality automobile parts. The best raw materials, most suitable for varied requirements, are born by repeated testing with state-of-the-art equipment.


Formula design
Rubber Kneading
We mix a variety of chemicals and knead rubber to satisfy our customers’ requirements.


Accumulation of material-specific data
We have more than 100 formulations to meet customers’ requirements such as heat-resistance, oil-resistance, and low temperature. Also, short-time development is made possible for newly-arising needs by applying past data of mixing design.

Evaluation
Micro-infrared spectroscopic meter
Evaluate the substances in gaskets & seals at a micro-level, and make use of high technology materials.

Universal tension, compression tester
A tensile, compressive performance may be evaluated under numerous conditions of temperature, humidity, ultraviolet rays, and the like.

Tension measuring instrument
This evaluates the tension of rubber products like a rubber gasket.

Gas chromatograph
Continually identify various kinds of materials and grasp the latest market trend.

Direct current magnetization characteristic testing equipment
It checks magnetic characteristic of magnetic materials which is required to magnetic encoder transmitting rotation signal of ABS.

Differential scanning calorimeter

This uses a small sample of the material to measure its low-temperature performance as well as its melting point.

 

 


Friction abrasion testing equipment
A test piece is used to measure friction and abrasion resistance which are required for bearing seals.
