Metal carrier
Steel & Stainless Carriers
Thin metal carriers engineered around tooth engagement, dimensional control, wet-process compatibility and repeat loading.
FIRST REVIEW
Information that moves engineering forward.
- Carrier OD, tooth count, module or DP
- Target thickness, flatness and inspection method
- Workpiece loading and pocket clearance
- Corrosion, chemistry and expected service life
APPLICATION FIT
Typical directions to explore.
- Silicon and sapphire wafers
- Optical glass
- Precision hard parts
PRODUCT FAMILY STORY
Custom-made around the job—not selected from a fixed shelf.
Metal carriers are made around a controlled drawing, not a generic diameter. Material grade, heat-treatment direction, tooth engagement, pocket population and finished thickness are connected to the actual machine and wet process.Within this family
- Blue-steel thin workpiece carriers
- SUS303 and SUS304 directions
- Project-specific precipitation-hardening stainless routes
- Custom pocket and identification layouts
Design focus
- Tooth data and machine gear interface
- Thin-section flatness and stiffness
- Pocket edge condition and loading
- Corrosion, wear and surface treatment
VALIDATION & RESULT FOCUS
Build evidence before making a production promise.
Every application is reviewed against its own machine, material, process and acceptance method. These are the evidence points normally carried into the next decision.- 01Drawing-to-sample dimensional comparison
- 02Material and surface-condition record
- 03Inspection-aligned repeat lots
ENGINEERING DEFINITION
Four connected decisions before a repeatable product.
Define the machine interface
Confirm plate size, carrier OD, inner and outer gearing, tooth data, motion, load and liquid delivery.Protect the workpiece
Review workpiece material, pocket shape, clearance, thickness, orientation and every possible edge-contact point.Match material and chemistry
Connect strength, wear, acid/alkali resistance, corrosion, metal-ion risk, slurry and cleaning requirements.Validate the route
Agree first-article measurements, acceptance evidence, change control and the path toward repeat supply.DRAWING & DESIGN INPUTS
What the product page cannot safely assume.
These fields turn a general product enquiry into a controlled engineering review. Share what is available; missing inputs can be structured together.- Geometry
- OD, tooth count, module or DP, pitch circle, pocket geometry, thickness and datum
- Workpiece
- Material, size, finished thickness, quantity, orientation and protected surfaces
- Process
- Single- or double-side route, speed, pressure, slurry, temperature and cleaning sequence
- Acceptance
- Flatness, parallelism, TTV, finish, edge condition, contamination and service-life method

Useful answers before sending the first drawing.
Is a drawing required?+
A controlled drawing is the fastest route. If none exists, share the sample, machine and gear data, workpiece dimensions and process target so a reviewable design direction can be prepared.
How is carrier pocket clearance defined?+
It is application-specific. A +0.2–0.3 mm diametral allowance is a common discussion starting point, then material, loading, liquid film, temperature and edge risk determine the final drawing.
Can material be recommended?+
Yes. Blue steel, stainless steel, resin, engineering plastic and composite-insert directions are compared against stiffness, wear, chemistry, contamination and contact protection.
What confirms production readiness?+
The agreed drawing, measured first article, application trial and acceptance method form the release baseline. Final feasibility remains process- and validation-specific.
