Sungil Machinery. Co., Ltd has localized various kinds of high-precision couplings for the fi rst time in Korea.

Currently, its share of the Korean coupling market is over 60 percent. Sungil’s couplings have been exported to 25 countries worldwide. Support units, power locks and other factory automation parts, other main items of Sungil, are manufactured and off ered to the domestic and oversea markets based on the top-tier precise quality.

The company has continuously aimed for new product development to meet its customers’ diverse needs and will strive to be a global top-tier parts manufacturer in the factory automation industries.

Couplings are core parts to transfer motion and power that can absorb misalignments and vibration for accurate rotation. The SRB Series are radial beam-type fl exible couplings that are made of high-strength aluminum alloy in one-piece structures. Sungil Machinery has maximized the advantages of the German VMT type and made up for weak points.

The product features high torsional stiff ness, a highly permissible torgue and stability in high rotational speed and a low moment of inertia. A major characteristic of the Oldham Coupling is its excellent fl exibility and a wide range of parallel misalignment acceptability. No restoring force leads to a litt le weight (load) on the bearing and shaft.

Ball screw support units are excellently standardized and have very precise straightness, squareness and concentricity for ball-screw support. Power locks clamp a shaft with a hub very precisely and strongly. Their uniform material property makes the power locks easy to dissemble and reuse.

It keeps a promise with customers to be a strong company and does its best to provide affl uence to customers’ lives for its products.

Various Windows and Doors Produced by Wonjin Aluminum

Casement windows are mainly used as ventilation windows or escape windows, and are opened from the inside toward the outside. The maximum opening angle is 90 degrees.

Normally, when the outside air fl ows in through the gap between the window frame and the window, insulation will decrease. Designed to overcome this, the casement window adopts a method that provides excellent insulation eff ects by covering the section of the frame that is exposed to the outside air with insulation materials combined with aluminum.

As for curtain wall windows, a polyamide insulation material is applied between the main member and the fi xing plate for the primary insulation, and polyurethane is applied to the middle section of the fi xing plate for the secondary insulation. In addition, polyamide is applied to the member that is connected to the external cap for the third insulation. Thus, the curtain wall window is a highly insulated window.

System doors can be mainly used for doors that come in contact with outside air directly. It is a highstrength system door that can be used as a main entrance door of a house and an entrance door of an offi ce. As special hardware is used, the system door provides excellent air-tightness and insulation and, accordingly, is suitable for an entrance door of a building as well as for laboratories, test rooms and recording rooms.

Lift sliding window will be lifted 8mm above the rail and slide with the help of a special hardware operation method, thus allowing a large-sized window to be opened easily and smoothly. It provides excellent insulation and air-tightness because of the use of a gasket made of a special material that has excellent durability and restoring force.
