Traditionally, this fully automatic gas replacement function was a specialized feature of high-performance upper models. Recently, there has been a trend in research and development of lithium-ion batteries that requires very strict management of moisture and oxygen levels inside glove boxes. In particular, when bringing samples or equipment in from the pass box, it is generally considered effective to perform gas replacement three times or more to shut out the moisture and oxygen that may enter. However, performing gas replacement more than three times requires considerable time and effort due to valve operations and gas introduction. This low-cost option 'APC' from UNICO allows you to set the vacuum time and the number of gas replacements, and then simply press the start button to complete the gas replacement automatically, significantly reducing the time spent on the traditional lengthy manual tasks.

The world's first square pass box!!! This is a personal glove box equipped with a large pass box measuring 350×250 mm. In recent years, there has been a significant demand from customers in the glove box industry for vacuum drying using plate heaters and other equipment inside the pass box. Traditionally, the maximum size for a pass box in glove boxes of the 800 mm width class was around 250×250 mm. However, with this pass box, even when including equipment like plate heaters and slide trays inside the pass box, the new model [Vacuum Type Glove Box UN-800Ls] has a large pass box that still provides ample space. It has overwhelming space that can accommodate several 2-liter PET bottles standing upright, thereby expanding the field of research. As a long-established specialized manufacturer of glove boxes, we propose low-cost, high-spec glove boxes to everyone, leveraging the technical expertise we have cultivated over many years.

In a glove box, proper environmental management during standby (when not in use) is essential for controlling the atmosphere of oxygen and moisture. This is because the glove box is susceptible to changes in room temperature at its installation site, which can cause fluctuations in pressure inside the glove box. When the temperature drops, it can lead to a decrease in pressure, causing the gloves to be pushed inward. Simultaneously, oxygen and moisture can permeate into the glove box. To maintain the appropriate conditions inside the glove box during standby, it is necessary to keep the internal pressure consistently on the pressurized side. For this purpose, it is essential to have an automatic internal pressure adjustment function (which we refer to as AGC). Glove boxes that lack this function incur additional effort and costs for atmosphere control each time, making them very inconvenient. Until now, the only option for an automatic internal pressure adjuster for glove boxes was to choose an expensive model with a touch panel. Therefore, as UNICO, which has led the personal glove box style for over 25 years, we felt it was imperative to develop a low-cost, high-spec automatic internal pressure adjuster and have brought it to market.

This is a large-capacity glove box with a main box size of approximately 390 liters. Nowadays, this glove box, UN-1000L, is used in various research and development scenes, including battery research. It has ample size even when a hydraulic press unit is placed inside, and it is often used for tasks involving clamping anvils, boasting one of the leading delivery records among domestic glove box manufacturers. It is possible to install UNICO's uniquely developed APC (Automatic Pass Box Replacement) as an option.

The UNICO glove box, which is highly popular for its high quality and low price, has a solid reason for its sales success. The atmospheric pressure type glove box UL-800A adopts a patented catch clip structure that makes it easy to detach the full glass, allowing for a large opening to be secured in just a few seconds when moving in and out large equipment such as ball mills, hydraulic presses, and spin coaters. Additionally, in this class of large-capacity glove boxes with a volume of 370L, an automatic internal pressure regulator, which is essential for atmosphere control during standby, is necessary. This is because oxygen and moisture can permeate through the gloves during standby, compromising the atmosphere inside the main box. The UL-800A comes standard with UNICO's uniquely developed AGC (automatic internal pressure regulator), so you can rest assured about atmosphere control during standby. This is a price that only UNICO, leading the glove box industry with low cost and high specifications, can offer. Please feel free to contact us for more information.

UNICO Co., Ltd. - JAPAN MADE - We are pleased to introduce the high-quality, low-cost "Vacuum Type Glove Box UN-650L," which is used for the development of cutting-edge technology at UNICO. The vacuum type glove box is designed to have excellent gas replacement efficiency, allowing for gas replacement after being evacuated. However, the term "vacuum" often leads to perceptions of "high price" and "difficult operation," similar to vacuum devices. In contrast, the UN-650L and the "UN Series" of vacuum type glove boxes from UNICO combine "affordability" and "ease of use" (including new mechanisms with patented technology), thus dispelling these negative images and emerging as the latest model of "JAPAN MADE."

In the domestic glove box industry, there are manufacturers that specialize in low prices and those that focus on high quality. However, the reality is that there are very few manufacturers that truly balance low price and high quality. Companies that promote low prices often reduce essential features in their glove boxes under the guise of offering "only the necessary equipment," while those that claim high quality tend to have higher prices. UNICO aims to create glove boxes that achieve both low price and high quality. Just as there is competition in various industries, the domestic glove box industry should also strive to produce truly excellent glove boxes that customers can trust and continue to be satisfied with. Instead of "reducing specifications to ensure low prices," we believe in "making efforts to enhance specifications while offering low prices." We at UNICO believe that this mindset should be the norm in today's world. By developing new products and providing better glove boxes at lower prices, we continuously evolve, just like in research. This is UNICO's style. If you are considering a glove box, please feel free to contact us. UNICO Co., Ltd.
