"There are times when people are surprised that a wooden mat can support large heavy machinery." The Hyper CLT mat is a lightweight wooden mat made from CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) that is laminated in a perpendicular direction, and it is utilized even in civil engineering sites where 25-ton class heavy machinery passes. The 5×10 panel weighs about 230 kg, making it relatively lightweight and easy to install, remove, and relocate on-site, allowing for a wide range of applications such as temporary roads, access routes, and heavy machinery work yards. Additionally, due to the unique characteristics of wood, it is easier to reduce glare and metallic sounds in the summer compared to steel plates, and it also has environmental value such as CO2 fixation. Furthermore, it is registered as a **Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS registered technology "TH-250021-A,"** which can be utilized for proposing new technologies in public works. Wood, NETIS, civil engineering, CLT. The lightweight and easy-to-handle nature, along with the ability to support large heavy machinery, is a significant strength of the Hyper CLT mat.

● What is a packaging container air leak test device? It is a leak testing device that identifies the peeling, tearing, and presence of pinholes in packaging containers for pharmaceuticals and other products, conducting a Container Closure Integrity Test (CCIT). It can be applied to a wide variety of packaging containers, including flexible packaging, bottle containers, and glass containers, primarily in pharmaceutical packaging. The measurement method employs the <sealed chamber method (pressure change leak testing method 1)>. A sample is placed in the chamber, and by applying pressure or vacuum and measuring the pressure change within the chamber, quantitative inspection is performed. It can be used in various scenarios, including offline manufacturing, inline manufacturing, CMC laboratories, quality control laboratories, and stability testing. * The containers subject to inspection are referred to as "work" or "samples." Here, specific samples are referred to as "samples" to differentiate the terminology.

The pinhole inspection for packaging engineering is fully automated, eliminating packaging defects based on certain quality standards. The judgment results and operational status can be managed via a monitor screen. - Quantitative management of quality standards for the pinhole inspection process - Ensuring the quality of the product's shelf life - Establishing evaluation criteria for the manufacturing process, achieving quantitative quality assurance - Slim and space-saving design that can be connected to existing production lines - Quick changeover for product variety switching can be handled in a short time by exchanging chambers - Fully domestically produced, allowing for rapid maintenance and troubleshooting - Example target works: pillow packaging, packaged rice (packaged cooked rice), etc. *Please consult us regarding the use of this product for pharmaceuticals.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily understandable at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*

In civil engineering projects conducted in mountainous areas, there are construction conditions that differ from flat land, such as narrow access roads and limited working space. The "Hyper CLT Mats," made from CLT (Cross Laminated Timber), excel in these situations. The 5×10 mats weigh approximately 230 kg, making them relatively lightweight and easy to install, remove, and relocate even with small machinery, depending on the site conditions. They can be utilized in various locations in mountainous areas, such as unpaved access roads, temporary roads, material storage areas, and heavy machinery workspaces. Additionally, they offer environmental benefits such as harmony with the natural landscape, reduction of metal noise and summer glare, and CO2 sequestration. The Hyper CLT Mats are registered under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." As a wooden lightweight mat combining wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT, it is a new option that is easy to use even in the challenging construction conditions of mountainous sites.
