Matex Corporation exhibited at the 27th Mechanical Elements Technology Exhibition M-Tech held at Intex Osaka. At this exhibition, in addition to our long-loved planetary gear reducers, we showcased the high-efficiency and compact "reducer for Matex servo motors." By combining it with various servo motors, it can be used in applications that require high positioning accuracy. We also displayed a variety of products, including the "planetary gear reducer" unit type, "backlash-reducing planetary reducer," "super engineering plastic injection molded products," and "automotive resin injection molded products." This is a great opportunity to see our products up close. We look forward to welcoming customers, such as machinery manufacturers, who wish to miniaturize and lighten their drive mechanisms. *If you would like a free invitation, please feel free to contact us. *For more details about our products, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

The "Planetary Gear Reducer Unit Type (Backlash Reduction Type)" reduces backlash compared to our conventional products and can be repurposed for applications that require higher precision, such as collaborative robots and electric mobility. It incorporates a main bearing inside the reducer, allowing it to be used as a standalone unit. Additionally, it maintains the high efficiency of conventional products and achieves excellent backdrive capability. It can also be used as a speed increaser. **Features of Our Planetary Gear Reducer:** - Multiple reducers can be connected using a unique coupling mechanism, allowing for any desired speed ratio. - By using resin for some components, we achieve cost reduction and weight savings. - Supports full custom, semi-custom, and shaft processing. ★ In addition to product materials, we are currently offering a collection of application examples for the reducer and proposal materials.

Matex Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. have jointly developed the "HECY Series" reduction gear using lightweight, high-strength resin materials. Utilizing the design technology for precision control reduction gears for industrial robots held by Sumitomo Heavy Industries and the production technology for reduction gears through resin molding possessed by Matex, we have achieved not only weight reduction but also high precision by using lightweight, high-strength resin materials, specifically super engineering plastics, for the main components. The parts made of resin are produced using injection molding machines, allowing the "HECY Series" reduction gear to be manufactured at a low cost. This makes it well-suited for service robots that require lightweight and low-cost solutions. 【Features】 - High precision - Use of lightweight, high-strength resin materials for main components - Weight of approximately 0.5 kg, which is less than one-third that of reduction gears in the same class We will be exhibiting at Robotech, which starts at Tokyo Big Sight, so please stop by if you are in the area!
