Surface texturing applied on key components in the eco/bio industry
or product and technology for surface texturing application
Client / Market
- Friction reduction transportation field, machine lubrication field, Solar cell
luminance efficiency improvement field, hospital’s anti-virus biofilm and selfcleaning
field, display industry
Necessity of this Technology
- Relying on the shape and material of components processed using existing technology
has limits regarding friction reduction and pro-/anti-cell increase technology, and
to create a surface with additional function, smart surface texturing technology with
surface pattern with the size up to several hundred microns needs to be applied.
- Relying on the shape and material of existing components has limits regarding
friction reduction and pro-/anti-cell increase technology-this technology can be
considered very original as it is an eco-friendly process-based high-precision
machining technology that replaces existing chemical etching or MEMS method.
- Need friction reduction, pro-cell functional effect realization, and various converged
machining
Technical Differentiation
- Using a component with fine patterns created on the surface, a functional
component can be created. Obtainable effects include friction reduction, cell and
virus-related characteristics improvement, and enhancement of optical function.
- Analyzing and simulating the smart textured surface in nature require pattern
shape measuring technology, computer simulation technology to copy the pattern
and estimate the function of the pattern, high-precision machining and control
technology to process pattern, and chemical process for post-processing of
surface; its technological ripple effect throughout the field of engineering is great.
- Based on realization of the eco-friendly method, this technology grants detailed
surface texturing using a method other than chemical treatment-partially applied
in the industry, and in particular, the technology goes beyond the limitations of
material as it can even be applied on metal surface.
- This technology includes technologies for various ripple effects regarding surface texturing
module, applicable eco/bio-related products, and machine for module application.
- As machining realizes uniform function, it is favorable for creating consistency in
function between products.
Excellence of Technology
- For dimple and riblet machining, lubrication friction and air/fluid friction is reduced
by up to 8 to 10%, which has been proven with theory and experiment.
- High-precision machining method for surface texturing can be directly applied on
hard material.
- Surface texturing shape research, machining process development and shape
measurement/function evaluation technology is a leading advanced technology
growing globally.
- Has 3 international patents and 34 other patents Received multiple awards including
Award Certificate of Director of Patent and Trademark Office (No. 7487, 2009) and
Order of Science and Technological Merit (Jinbo Medal) (No. 94, 2011)
