Polyamide 6 Carbon Fiber For Robot Arm

Polyamide 6 carbon fiber for Robot arm

Product Details

Carbon fiber not only has the inherent intrinsic properties of carbon materials, but also has the soft processability of textile fibers, and is a new generation of reinforcing fibers. Carbon fiber is a microcrystalline graphite material obtained by carbonizing and graphitizing organic fibers. The microstructure of carbon fiber is similar to that of artificial graphite and is a layered graphite structure. Each carbon fiber is made up of thousands of smaller carbon fibers, about 5 to 8 microns in diameter. The carbon fiber at the atomic level is very similar to graphite, and is composed of a layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal shape. The difference between the two lies in the connection between layers. Graphite is a crystal structure in which the interlayer bonds are loose, while carbon fibers are not crystalline structures, and interlayer connections are irregular. This prevents the strength of the slip enhancing material. The density of carbon fiber is generally 1750 kg/m3. The thermal conductivity is high but the power transmission capacity is low, and the specific heat capacity of carbon fiber is also lower than that of copper. When heated, the carbon fibers become thicker and shorter. Although the natural color of carbon fiber is black, it can be dyed in different colors.

Application Robot arm

◆Metallic materials are used in the manufacture of industrial robots. The strength of metal materials is relatively large and it is not easy to wear. However, metal materials have limited space for light weight. The metal material commonly used in manufacturing robots is aluminum alloy, the proportion of stainless steel is small, and aluminum alloy is more convenient to process than stainless steel.

In the manufacture of robots, materials such as ABS resin, PVC, nylon, and plexiglass are sometimes used. Compared with metal materials such as aluminum alloy and stainless steel, the advantages of such materials are mainly light weight and easy processing, but the strength is relatively small. Can be applied to some non-stressed parts of the robot.

In addition, composite materials made of glass fiber or carbon fiber have been developed rapidly in recent years, and their application potential is huge. Carbon fiber is a new type of high-strength, high-modulus fiber material with a carbon content of more than 95%. Carbon fiber "outer and soft inside", outstanding mechanical performance, tensile strength is several times that of steel, density is only 1.7g / cm ^ 3, 2 / 3 of aluminum, is an important structural material in defense military and civilian use.

Polyamide 6 Carbon fiber composites have many excellent properties. Their specific strength and specific modulus are higher in existing structural materials. Conductivity is between non-metal and metal, thermal expansion coefficient is extremely small, and anti-vibration energy. Good performance, insoluble in organic solvents, acids, alkalis, and outstanding corrosion resistance.
