GF series Green Frame
GF-series structural aluminium frames have been designed as a material for work boards, trolleys, chuters, and racks, to offer the optimum adaptability to factory automation.
Its unique sectional form is most suited for simple and fast assemblies and modifications with use of a single bolt, This offers the maximum flexibility to unexpected additions and layout changes frequently required in manufacturing sites. The lightweight aluminium frame, with elegant alumite treatment, will help you maintain aesthetic appearance of the factory for long. What's more, the aluminium is an excellent material for recycling and reuse.
Perfect freedom to choose the best combination of frames and accessories allows for a customized system that will satisfy your needs.
Nonconventional Low Pricing
Light weight, Recycle
It's lighter than existing iron, plastic or composite pipe and has excellent recyclability because Green Frame adopts aluminium extrusion.
Easy to disassemble and reform
It's easy to disassemble and also reusable because all of the connectors can be combined by bolt. In order to improve the recyclability, we adopted aluminium material for connector, too.
Labor and power saving
Because connector is combined by one bolt nut, assembly procedure is reduced, and contributes to save customer's power.
Saving Resource
For aluminium reclamation, about 3/100 energy of manufacturing new bare metal is needed. We can reduce consumption of natural source "bauxite".
Good design with high durability
Green Frame excels in design and maintains glazing for a long time, because aluminium surface is anodized (more than 9µm). Also, painting is not needed.

-
The frame is equipped with a pair of grooves in each of the four directions. A connector can fit in the grooves with use of a single bolt.
-
Degree of perpendicularity and parallelism is apparent with use of grooves facing the four directions.
-
Connectors fit in with a bolt allow for easy assembly and disassembly.
Green frame features Green frames and connectors are made of aluminium
-
AIuminium weighs one third of steel
Increased speed enabled by the lightweight tools results in high efficiency (a green frame weighs two thirds of a steel and plastic frame).
-
Quick to deliver
We respond to urgent orders.
-
A broad range of sizes available
Length can be selected within a range between 100 and 4,000 mm.
A broad range of applications is available to meet individual needs.
Example1 Work board
Easy to modify layout
Work board combination can flexibly be modified according to working space and staffing conditions of a cell production system.
Individual work boards can easily be connected for line works, and vice versa.
Example2 Chuter
Flexible to modify to meet varying working conditions
Suited for use as shelves to store supply parts and works. A convenient chuter can be created when corocon parts are combined. Angle and shape customization is possible to fit any type, number or size of container.
Even large-size chuters, being lightweight and easy-to-move, require minimum workload for transport.
Example3 Trolley
Reuse with easy disassembly
Convenient for transport of parts and works.The lightweight aluminium frames reduce operator workload and offer freedom to modify size as well as shape of the composition.
Example4 Clean booth
Rust-proof material prevents paint strip-off
Applicable to pillars and components for simple clean rooms, or desktop compact clean booths. Anodized aluminum is a rust-free material that effectively prevents paint from stripping off.
Example5 Partition
Lightweight and movable
Lightweight aluminum is suited for making easy-to-move, simple partitions. Different applications are possible with varying panel material/part options.
