Optical thermal expansion measuring instrument for demanding research and development and manufacturing technology labs.

The "ODP 868," a result of over 20 years of research and development on optical testing devices for analyzing the thermomechanical behavior of materials, enables sample analysis that surpasses the limitations of conventional heating microscopes. With its multifunctionality, the ODP 868 is a highly innovative tool suitable for optimizing industrial processes related to manufacturing, research and development, and thermal cycles. The heating microscope mode uses a 5Mpix high-resolution camera to analyze the physical behavior of materials during industrial firing cycles. Through practical morphometrics, it calculates and visualizes various characteristic temperatures and parameters selected by the user in real-time during analysis. The ODP 868 can analyze samples of a wide range of shapes and sizes (for example, measuring 3mm and 10mm samples simultaneously) and can analyze up to 8 ISO standard-sized samples at the same time.

Introducing the "DIL802/802L," capable of high-precision dual sample measurement.

The DIL 803 is a dual-sample dilatometer that maximizes productivity by measuring two samples simultaneously. It can measure in vacuum or inert gas environments, while the DIL 803L is specialized for measurements in air. The horizontally arranged furnace ensures uniform temperature and eliminates the effects of air convection. A high-sensitivity LVDT is used to accurately measure even minute thermal expansion events.

• Analytical Equipment and Devices

Measurement of thermal expansion in the vertical direction is possible! The highest sensitivity is guaranteed by a high-resolution inductive sensor (LVDT).

The DIL820 series (DIL 821/822) is a high-precision vertical dilatometer belonging to the DIL 820 series from TA Instruments. These models are equipped with a new optical encoder that has a resolution of 1nm, making them particularly suitable for the analysis of challenging samples. The DIL 822 employs true differential measurement technology, providing the best sensitivity and accuracy for CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) in the market.

This is the lecture material posted on YouTube ~Rheology: Basic Edition 1~. It is available for free download, so please feel free to make use of it.

Data Content This is a PDF version of the lecture materials from YouTube, converted for better readability. The video consists of a total of 12 pages and provides easy-to-understand explanations for beginners on the following topics: - What is rheology? - What is viscoelasticity? - About measurement modes. I think it might be difficult to understand just from the lecture materials, so please also refer to the YouTube videos below.

We will showcase our new product "BLFF," a palletizing foam gripper that weighs only 1.9 kg and measures 350mm×250mm, ideal for bulk picking. We will also introduce various products that cater to different work applications, including durable suction cups and solutions for bag handling. Additionally, we are implementing energy-saving proposals by replacing ejectors to reduce compressed air consumption, which has become a challenge in many industries. If you have any issues with adhesion or transport, please feel free to consult with us at the venue. ■ Lightweight Foam Gripper for Collaborative Robots "CVGC Series" Despite weighing only 1.9 kg, this gripper has a theoretical lifting force of 100 kg, maximizing the payload capacity of collaborative robots. ■ Gripper for Films This gripper is designed to transport thin films gently, minimizing marks left on the surface. By utilizing 3D printing, we can accommodate highly flexible shape designs tailored to specific workpieces and applications. ■ Energy Saving Comparison Panel "Why does a single ejector consume less compressed air compared to a multi-stage ejector?" You can actually verify the differences in compressed air consumption through a comparative display using a flow meter and actual equipment.
