Customers transitioning to the new LubriOne formulations will be able to reduce the torque required to mold parts, enabling efficiencies and increased flexibility in their manufacturing operations.

These products have high-strength, low stretch, and excellent fatigue properties, and are properly torque-balanced for optimal performance.

Torque balanced aramid cord

THE SOLUTION In the development of the Caplex PRO-002, Humotech sought a material solution that would provide high torque, flexibility, and durability for key components of the foot. The robotically-controlled forefoot component needed to store energy and reduce torque tracking errors.
