Synthetic Korea Casting tape

ITEM SPECIFICS

Strong and Comfortable
Robo Cast is 20 times as rigid as conventional plaster cast.
Though it is thinner, and lighter tnan conventlonal plaster cast by 5 times.
Durable
Robo Cast is strong against impact and durable on edge sides.
X-ray translucent
Robo Cast has outstanding x-ray translucency.
Environmentally Friendly
Robo Cast can be incinerated after use.
Conformable
Excellent multi-directional stetch makse it easier to wrap and shape
Better Sanitation
Robo Caste is highly permeable to water vapor, reducing bulid-up of moisture inside cast.
Less Dust
No Potential Hazard of Fibreglass Robo Cast Polyeter produces signiflcantly less dust than fiberglass product during removal.
Tacky-Free
The slip addifives in the Robo Cast provide tack-free properties and excellent end lay down.

-1. Stretch of the Product
Stretch% length-way is one of crucial factors which decides the quality of the product, because it is required when the product is applied on body contour such as elbow and heel.

-2. Lesser Bubble-Out of the Lubricant
Bubble-Out of the Lubricant from ROBO Cast is significantly less than competitors that may cause skin problem to patient. Tested by rubbing 15~20 times for molding.

-3.Low Foaming ; Test by TEM analysis
Lesser Forming occurs on surface of the ROBO Cast during the hardening process, which keeps the structure of the Knit Tape in shape. So, the cast made of ROBO Cast has smoother surface, better ventilation, and stronger compression strength. Pictures below show the magnification on the casts after hardening process.

-4. No Furs on ROBO Cast Polyester
No Furs are found on ROBO Cast Polyester and Only a little are found on ROBO Cast Fiberglass.
This kind of fur is one of the main factors that cause patient to have itching or allergy problem. So, doctors are very reluctant to use the product with furs on the cast.

-5. Hard to Break/ Chip off
Green Cast - M Cast made in USA - (Left in the picture) and most of Fiberglass Casts are breakable, especially on edge-sides.
On the other hand, Blue Cast - ROBO Cast Polyester (Right in the picture) is very hard to break / chip off, but flexible and soft on edgy sides.
