Examples of technologies utilized in the recycling industry

CFRP加工

CFRP

In CFRP processing, the manufacture of parts using recycled materials is also progressing. CFRP scrap recovered from aircraft and automobiles is crushed, reprocessed, and reused as recycled CFRP, making it possible to manufacture highly functional parts while reducing environmental impact. Typical applications include bicycle parts, sporting goods, covers for home appliances, and reinforcement panels for building materials. By recycling waste materials while maintaining the excellent moldability and specific strength characteristics, sustainable manufacturing that contributes to a recycling-oriented society will be realized.

金属3Dプリント

Metal 3D Printing

Metal 3D printing is used for recycling-oriented manufacturing in the recycling industry, including the reuse of used metal powders and the remanufacturing of damaged machine parts. The ability to remanufacture only the necessary quantities of wear-prone or discontinued parts for repair is a feature of this technology, and it plays a role in sustainable manufacturing processes.

樹脂3Dプリント

Resin 3D Printing

Resin 3D printing allows for the reproduction and manufacture of prototypes, promotional items, and mechanical parts using recycled filaments generated from recovered plastics. This initiative to transform waste materials into valuable forms is also linked to the promotion of the circular economy and the appeal of the company's environmental contribution.

板金加工

Sheet Metal

Sheet metal processing is also a suitable processing technology for manufacturing metal parts that utilize recycled materials. Specifically, recycled aluminum and stainless steel are used to produce appliance housings, signboard frames, shelf frames, and architectural panels. Recycled metal materials are characterized by their ability to significantly reduce environmental impact while maintaining strength and workability. Through processes such as cutting, bending, and welding, parts and structures with high design quality can be efficiently produced, leading to the development of sustainable products. It is a processing technology that will become even more important in the future as manufacturing sites aim for a recycling-oriented society.

切削加工

Machining

Cutting is an ideal technology for utilizing recycled materials to produce high-precision parts. For example, recycled aluminum and recycled plastic blocks are used to produce machine parts, prototype models, precision brackets, and exterior parts for electronic devices. Cutting enables the production of parts with excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish, even from recycled materials, and is unique in that it maximizes the quality of the reused materials. Material loss is also minimized by machining only the necessary shapes, enabling both sustainable manufacturing and high-performance product development.

射出成形

Injection Molding

Injection molding is a processing technology suitable for mass production utilizing recycled materials. Recycled resins such as recycled ABS and recycled polypropylene are used to produce exterior panels for home appliances, containers for daily necessities, parts for office furniture, and in-vehicle interior parts. Because the recycled resin is injected into a mold and molded as a single piece, stable quality can be ensured even for complex shapes, and the process is cost-effective. By devising formulations that maintain strength and durability even with recycled materials, the process can also be used to develop environmentally friendly products. This processing technology is suitable for establishing a mass production system while making effective use of resources.

冷間加工

Cold Forming Process

Cold working is a processing method in which materials are plastically deformed below their recrystallization temperature, and is also used in the manufacture of parts that utilize recycled materials. Since cold working is a processing method with relatively little material loss, it can increase the utilization efficiency of recycled materials. At the same time, it can reduce environmental impact because it consumes less energy than hot processing. Cold working using recycled metals has been incorporated into the manufacture of automotive parts, construction materials, and furniture and household goods.

Examples of materials utilized in the recycling industry

recycled plastic
Recycled plastics such as recycled ABS, PET, and PP are made by reusing materials recovered from discarded products and containers, and are utilized in the manufacture of various components. The characteristics of each are as follows Recycled ABS: Excellent moldability and impact resistance, used for exterior panels of home appliances, remote control covers, storage boxes, etc. Recycled PET: Excellent transparency and strength, suitable for stationery cases, containers for daily necessities, lighting covers, etc. Recycled PP: Lightweight and chemical resistant, used for buckets, tool cases, chair seats, etc. Recycled plastic is attracting attention as a material that can both reduce costs and environmental impact and waste.
Recycled Aluminum
Recycled aluminum is an aluminum material that is re-refined from used cans and industrial scrap, and is characterized by its light weight and corrosion resistance while significantly reducing environmental impact. Specific examples of applications include bicycle frames and rims, housings for laptop computers and home appliances, and window frames and paneling as building materials. With performance nearly equivalent to that of original aluminum, and suitable for machining and sheet metal processing, it is reused in a wide variety of products. It is also an excellent energy-saving material that contributes to sustainable manufacturing.
Recycled Stainless Steel
Recycled stainless steel is a stainless steel material recovered and re-refined from used cookware and industrial parts, and can be reused while retaining its corrosion resistance and durability. Examples of major parts include panels and sinks for kitchen appliances, architectural hardware (handrails, door handles), frames for medical and welfare equipment, and vending machine exteriors. The material is also highly processable and can be used for a variety of finishes such as bending, welding, and polishing, making it suitable for products that require a high quality of appearance. For these reasons, it is attracting attention as a material that both makes effective use of resources and reduces environmental impact.

In addition to this, we can handle all kinds of materials.

Key to Successful Parts Manufacturing Using Recycled Materials

Proper understanding and selection of the characteristics of the original material

In manufacturing parts utilizing recycled materials, it is important to correctly understand the characteristics of the material and select the appropriate material for each application. Recycled ABS, PET, aluminum, CFRP, and other materials may have performance similar to that of the original material, but may vary in strength, color tone, and workability. Therefore, it is important to select the appropriate material according to the performance required of the product, and conduct prototyping and physical property evaluation as necessary. Understanding the properties of materials will help achieve both product quality and environmental friendliness.

Take measures to stabilize quality.

Recycled materials are prone to variations in quality depending on the raw material lot and reprocessing method. For example, it is recommended to secure the wall thickness instead of making it thinner than necessary, to provide R (curved surface) in areas where stress is likely to be concentrated, and to allow for a margin in dimensional tolerances. In addition, avoiding complex shapes and improving formability can reduce deformation and defect rates. Thus, by designing based on the characteristics of the material, it is possible to manufacture parts of stable quality even when using recycled materials.

Use of appropriate processing techniques

To take advantage of the characteristics of recycled materials, it is important to select the appropriate processing technology for the material. For example, recycled plastics are suitable for injection molding and 3D printing, which are effective for manufacturing complex shapes and lightweight parts. Recycled aluminum and stainless steel, on the other hand, can be used in sheet metal processing and cutting to produce high-precision parts. Considering each material's workability, thermal deformation susceptibility, and risk of strength loss, selecting the appropriate processing method will ensure consistent product quality.
