Flexible screw
Bendable and flexible toner transport screw
By realizing the flexibility of the screw, which is essential for toner transportation, it is now possible to freely design the toner transportation path, which has been difficult to achieve in the past.
It realizes drastic downsizing of copiers and printers and overall cost reduction.
Characteristics
Toner transport amount
・Due to the screw shape, it can be expected to increase the amount of toner conveyed compared to conventional metal coil products.
High productivity
・Productivity is high, and it is possible to improve the ability to respond to volume fluctuations during mass production.
・Since molding is possible with existing equipment, no capital investment is required.
Cost reduction
・A significant cost reduction can be expected by simplifying the configuration and reducing the number of parts.
Improved functionality
・By optimizing the blade shape and shaft diameter, it can be expected to lead to countermeasures against toner aggregation and improved durability.
・Since it has a shaft part, it is possible to convey toner from bottom to top, which was not possible in the past.
Weight saving
・Due to its low specific gravity, weight reduction is possible.
Quietness
・Compared to conventional metal coil products, it has better noise reduction and can be used to reduce abnormal noise.
Compared to conventional metal coil products, it has better noise reduction and can be used to reduce abnormal noise.
Application
Replenishing toner to the developing unit
Waste toner transport
Example of usage
Copier/Printer
