Fabtech List of Products and Services

The "Polyfah heater" is a product made from a new material polyurea resin, which has characteristics such as high strength, high elongation, elasticity, and chemical resistance, and CNT fabric heater (fiber-type heating element). Polyurea is primarily formed by the chemical reaction between isocyanates and amino groups, resulting in urea bonds. These bonds are strong, making it less prone to hydrolysis compared to polyurethane, and it excels in water resistance, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance. Additionally, it is a solvent-free material that is environmentally friendly. 【Features】 ■ Excellent chemical and corrosion resistance, high abrasion resistance and weather resistance ■ Flexible yet strong ■ Strong bonding, less prone to hydrolysis compared to polyurethane ■ Solvent-free and environmentally considerate *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "fabric heater" allows for energy-saving control through PID & SSR control devices due to its uniform temperature distribution across the entire surface. The advantage of this control method is that it utilizes a design with high heater performance from the outset, enabling a wide range of temperature control. It can also respond to sudden heavy snowfall and features a control system that does not waste energy. 【Features】 ■ Heavy snow: Heater surface temperature drops → Increases power consumption ■ Light snow: Heater surface temperature rises → Decreases power consumption ■ Snow melting completed: Heater surface temperature stabilizes → Power consumption OFF *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce the development of measures against frost and fog damage for one-man mirrors. Electric heating wires struggle with uniform snow melting and ice prevention due to low temperatures between the wires. The "fabric heater" maintains a uniform temperature across its surface, allowing for even snow melting and prevention of snow accumulation. In East Japan Railway Company, one-man mirrors and general curve mirrors are used to maintain a clear mirror surface for safety confirmation.

We will introduce a case study on ice pillar countermeasures using a "fabric heater." We have developed a snow melting product in collaboration with NEXCO Central Japan, and this evaluation focuses on countermeasures for icicles inside tunnels. It has been confirmed that icicles on the meltwater drainage pipes are prevented from forming overall by the warm rising air from the fabric heater installed at the bottom. This is a unique application of the thin and lightweight fabric heater.

Our company is developing snow damage countermeasure products using surface heating elements. In light of the difficulties faced by disaster victims in keeping warm during the Great East Japan Earthquake, we decided to work on developing a system that can easily secure thermal energy even in emergencies. The developed system warms the surface heating element to around 20°C to melt snow. While the surface heating element has the advantage of quick startup and can be cut to any size, it cannot generate heat without electricity. Therefore, to ensure power generation even in the event of a power outage, we developed a system that combines commercial power sources with batteries and independent solar power generation.
