Gravity Casting

Robotic Arm Joint Housing

A hollow joint housing for collaborative robot arms, gravity cast in A356 and T6 heat-treated, then machined on 5-axis centres so the bearing seats and gearbox flange need no secondary work.

Product Overview

A hollow joint housing for collaborative robot arms, gravity cast in A356 and T6 heat-treated, then machined on 5-axis centres so the bearing seats and gearbox flange need no secondary work.

What Makes This Part Reliable

  • T6 heat treatment lifts yield strength roughly 40% over the as-cast condition.
  • 5-axis machining keeps the bearing bores and flange faces true to each other.
  • Hollow rib design cuts rotating mass without losing torsional stiffness.
