This is a powder metallurgy (PM) steel with excellent toughness and fatigue resistance that can be shaped using a metal 3D printer. The 3D printed parts made from Vibenite150 have a high carbide content, providing the best wear resistance. This material offers the possibility to design complex shapes, combine multiple parts into one, and add cooling channels. The additive manufacturing (AM) process allows for weight reduction and the addition of special features. The time required for sample prototyping and trial production is very fast, enabling rapid development of new products. Furthermore, near-net-shape manufacturing eliminates the need for rough machining and reduces grinding.

Can be manufactured with a metal 3D printer. Improved high-temperature hardness and wear resistance, enhancing high-speed steel (HSS) applications through complex shapes and lightweight design.

Vibenite 480 is a 3D printing alloy that significantly improves high-temperature hardness and wear resistance due to its high carbide content. Its metal structure is stable under temperature changes, making it ideal for metal parts that require high-temperature durability. The 3D printing process allows for the creation of free and complex shapes, enabling the combination of multiple alloy components into a single part, lightweight design, and the internal design of various refrigerant flow paths. By shortening the lead time for prototype and initial mass production, it becomes possible to release new products in a timely manner. A major feature is that near-net-shape manufacturing eliminates the need for rough machining using machining centers, resulting in less grinding.

In civil engineering sites during extreme heat, the surface temperature of the ground plates and the heat reflection significantly affect the working environment. In particular, steel plates tend to retain heat when exposed to sunlight, posing challenges for workers' heatstroke prevention and safety management. Hyper CLT ground plates are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT. As wooden ground plates, they can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways, making them a versatile alternative to steel plates in various civil engineering sites. In actual sites, there are cases where the surface temperature differs by about 20 degrees compared to steel plates, making them effective as a solution for heat prevention and reflection suppression. The 5×10 plate weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 plate weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. They are materials that easily promote noise reduction, CO2 fixation, and environmental consideration unique to wood. Registered as a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS technology "TH-250021-A," they can also be utilized for creative ideas and safety measures in public works. They are recommended for companies looking to reassess the summer site environment. We also accept inquiries for consultations and requests for materials tailored to site conditions. We can propose solutions for temporary plans during summer for both public and private civil engineering projects. Please feel free to consult with us.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding methods for repairs often change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which constantly carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
