PEEK 应用到机器人结构件(外壳、骨架)的介绍
在机器人的研发与制造进程中,结构件作为基础支撑,对机器人的性能、稳定性以及应用场景拓展起着关键作用。PEEK 材料以其卓越特性,在机器人外壳与骨架领域展现出无可比拟的优势,正逐渐成为行业革新的关键驱动力。
一、PEEK 材料特性剖析
高强度与高刚性:PEEK 具备出色的机械性能,其拉伸强度和弯曲模量可与部分金属材料相媲美,能够为机器人外壳和骨架提供可靠的结构支撑,确保机器人在复杂工况下维持稳定形态,抵御外部冲击与应力,保障内部精密部件的安全运行。
轻量化优势:PEEK 的密度约为 1.3 - 1.4g/cm³,仅为铝合金密度(约 2.7g/cm³)的一半左右 。这种轻量化特性对于机器人意义重大,在同等强度要求下,采用 PEEK 制作外壳和骨架,可大幅降低机器人自身重量。以人形机器人为例,减轻的重量有助于提升其动作灵活性、响应速度,同时降低能耗,延长续航时间,使其在服务、救援等对续航和机动性要求较高的场景中表现更优。
耐化学腐蚀性:在工业、医疗、食品加工等诸多领域,机器人常面临各种化学物质的侵蚀。PEEK 材料对酸碱溶液、有机溶剂等具有极强的耐受性,能够有效防止外壳和骨架因化学腐蚀而损坏,显著延长机器人的使用寿命,确保在恶劣化学环境下稳定运行。例如在化工生产车间,使用 PEEK 材料结构件的机器人可长期抵抗腐蚀性气体和液体的侵害。
良好的热稳定性:PEEK 可在高温环境下保持稳定性能,其玻璃化转变温度约为 143,长期使用温度可达 240左右,短期甚至能承受更高温度。这一特性使机器人能够适应高温作业场景,如汽车焊接车间、高温物料搬运等,避免因温度变化导致结构变形,影响机器人的精度和可靠性。
二、在机器人外壳上的应用实例与优势
防护与耐用性提升:工业机器人的工作环境往往较为恶劣,存在碰撞、摩擦以及粉尘、油污等污染物。采用 PEEK 材料制作外壳,凭借其高强度和耐磨特性,可有效抵御外界碰撞与刮擦,减少外壳磨损,同时防止粉尘、油污等附着和侵蚀,保护内部电子元件和机械结构,降低故障发生概率,提高机器人的整体耐用性。
设计灵活性增强:PEEK 材料易于加工成型,通过注塑、模压等工艺,能够制造出形状复杂、造型多样的外壳。这为机器人的外观设计提供了广阔空间,不仅可以满足不同行业对机器人外观的个性化需求,还能在保证结构强度的同时,优化外壳的空气动力学性能,减少风阻,提升机器人在移动过程中的效率。例如,一些服务型机器人采用流线型 PEEK 外壳,既美观又能降低运行噪音。
降低成本:虽然 PEEK 材料的初始成本相对较高,但从长期使用和维护角度来看,其出色的性能可大幅减少机器人的维修次数和更换频率,降低总体使用成本。同时,PEEK 材料在加工过程中材料利用率高,且可通过优化设计实现一体化成型,减少零部件数量和组装工序,进一步节约生产成本。
三、在机器人骨架上的应用成果与价值
支撑性能优化:机器人骨架作为承载核心,需要具备足够的强度和刚性来支撑各个部件并传递动力。PEEK 材料的高强度和高刚性确保了骨架能够稳定承载机器人的重量,同时在运动过程中有效抵抗扭曲和变形,保障机器人关节活动的精准性和稳定性。以多关节工业机器人为例,PEEK 骨架能够使机器人在高速运转和高精度操作时保持良好的姿态控制。
实现轻量化与高效运动:轻量化的 PEEK 骨架可显著降低机器人的惯性,使机器人在启动、停止和转向时更加敏捷,响应速度更快。这对于需要频繁进行快速动作的机器人,如分拣机器人、物流搬运机器人等尤为重要,能够大幅提高工作效率,同时减少能源消耗,降低运营成本。
适配复杂关节结构:随着机器人技术的发展,关节结构日益复杂,对材料的适应性要求更高。PEEK 材料良好的加工性能使其能够制造出与复杂关节结构完美适配的骨架部件,确保关节活动的流畅性和灵活性。例如,在人形机器人的四肢骨架中,PEEK 材料可根据关节的运动特点进行定制化设计和加工,实现更加自然、灵活的动作模仿。



Introduction to the Application of PEEK in Robot Structural Components (Enclosures, Frameworks)
During the research and manufacturing process of robots, structural components serve as the basic support, playing a crucial role in the performance, stability, and expansion of application scenarios of robots. PEEK material, with its outstanding characteristics, demonstrates unparalleled advantages in the field of robot enclosures and frameworks, gradually becoming a key driving force for industry innovation.
I. Analysis of PEEK Material Characteristics
High strength and high rigidity: PEEK possesses excellent mechanical properties, with its tensile strength and bending modulus comparable to some metal materials, providing reliable structural support for robot enclosures and frameworks, ensuring the robot maintains a stable form in complex working conditions, resisting external impacts and stresses, and guaranteeing the safe operation of internal precision components.
Lightweight advantage: The density of PEEK is approximately 1.3 - 1.4g/cm³, only about half of that of aluminum (approximately 2.7g/cm³). This lightweight feature is significant for robots, allowing the use of PEEK to manufacture enclosures and frameworks with the same strength requirements, significantly reducing the robots own weight. Taking humanoid robots as an example, the reduced weight helps improve their movement flexibility, response speed, and energy consumption, extending their battery life, and enabling them to perform better in scenarios requiring high endurance and mobility, such as service and rescue operations.
Chemical corrosion resistance: In various industries, such as industrial, medical, and food processing, robots often encounter various chemical substances. PEEK material has strong resistance to acid and alkali solutions, organic solvents, etc., effectively preventing the enclosures and frameworks from being damaged by chemical corrosion, significantly extending the robots service life and ensuring stable operation in harsh chemical environments. For example, in chemical production workshops, robots with PEEK structural components can withstand the corrosive effects of gases and liquids for a long time.
Good thermal stability: PEEK can maintain stable performance in high-temperature environments, with its glass transition temperature approximately 143℃, and a long-term use temperature of around 240℃, and even can withstand higher temperatures in the short term. This characteristic enables robots to adapt to high-temperature operation scenarios, such as automotive welding workshops and high-temperature material handling, avoiding structural deformation due to temperature changes and affecting the robots accuracy and reliability.
II. Application Examples and Advantages of PEEK in Robot Enclosures
Enhanced protection and durability: The working environment of industrial robots is often harsh, with collisions, friction, and dust, oil, and other contaminants. Using PEEK material to manufacture enclosures, with its high strength and wear resistance, can effectively resist external collisions and scratches, reduce enclosure wear, and prevent dust, oil, and other substances from adhering and eroding, protecting internal electronic components and mechanical structures, reducing the probability of faults, and improving the overall durability of the robot.
Increased design flexibility: PEEK material is easy to process and mold, through injection molding, compression molding, etc., it can be manufactured into complex-shaped and diverse enclosures. This provides a broad space for the design of robots, not only meeting the personalized needs of different industries for robot appearance, but also optimizing the aerodynamic performance of the enclosures while ensuring structural strength, reducing wind resistance, and improving the efficiency of the robot during movement. For example, some service robots use streamlined PEEK enclosures, which are both aesthetically pleasing and can reduce operating noise.
Cost reduction: Although the initial cost of PEEK material is relatively high, from a long-term usage and maintenance perspective, its outstanding performance can significantly reduce the number of robot repairs and replacement frequencies, and lower the overall usage cost. Meanwhile, the PEEK material has a high material utilization rate during the processing, and it can be integrated through optimized design to reduce the number of components and assembly processes, further saving production costs.
III. Application Results and Value in Robot Frameworks
Optimization of Support Performance: As the core component for bearing, the robot framework needs to have sufficient strength and rigidity to support various components and transfer power. The high strength and rigidity of PEEK material ensure that the framework can stably bear the weight of the robot and effectively resist twisting and deformation during movement, guaranteeing the accuracy and stability of the robots joint movements. Taking multi-joint industrial robots as an example, the PEEK framework can enable the robot to maintain good posture control during high-speed operation and high-precision operation.
Realization of Lightweight and Efficient Movement: The lightweight PEEK framework can significantly reduce the inertia of the robot, making it more agile during startup, stopping, and turning, and having a faster response speed. This is particularly important for robots that need to perform rapid actions frequently, such as sorting robots and logistics handling robots, which can significantly increase work efficiency while reducing energy consumption and lowering operating costs.
Adaptation to Complex Joint Structures: With the development of robot technology, joint structures are becoming increasingly complex, and higher adaptability requirements are imposed on materials. The good processing performance of PEEK material enables the manufacturing of framework components that perfectly fit complex joint structures, ensuring the smoothness and flexibility of joint movements. For example, in the limbs framework of humanoid robots, the PEEK material can be customized and processed according to the movement characteristics of the joints, achieving more natural and flexible imitation of movements.
