The content of the BricsCAD case study currently being presented has been updated.

We will introduce the secret behind achieving "initiatives for realizing DX" that are in sync with the field.

■Do you have any of the following concerns? - You are progressing with DX preparations but feel a disconnect with the on-site team. - You are not effectively utilizing drawing data. - The workload in the manufacturing site is increasing, and there is a shortage of manpower. In the control panel manufacturing sector, improving work efficiency due to a serious labor shortage has become a challenge, and like other manufacturing industries, there is an urgent need to respond to DX. However, many companies may still be clinging to traditional methods and struggling to prepare for DX. This case study will be useful for such companies.

We will introduce a case study filled with key points for replacing from major general-purpose CAD systems.

■Do you have any of these concerns? - I want to switch to a DWG-compatible CAD, but I don't know where to start. - I want the new CAD to be accepted and used by the field after the switch. - I don't know what evaluation points to consider during the switch. Many companies are considering replacing their CAD with a DWG-compatible one to reduce costs and improve CAD operations. However, even though it may seem simple to switch, there are surprisingly many factors to consider, such as how to proceed with the project and coordinate with the field. By looking at this case study, you can gain a concrete image of what the switch entails. Please feel free to download it. ■For CAD-related inquiries, please leave it to Zuken Alpha Tech.

Efforts to streamline electrical design using data and successfully fostering the groundwork for realizing DX at an early stage.

Implementing Company: Aime Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Business Description: Design/Manufacturing/Testing of Control Devices and Distribution Boards ■Challenges Before Implementation Operations and management were paper-based without attribute information assigned to drawings. Standardization of design was not achieved. There was a heavy reliance on customization, leading to a lack of scalability. ■Reasons for Implementing ACAD-DENKI Ability to use drawing functions of AutoCAD/BricsCAD, providing high flexibility and ease of implementation on-site. Data utilization through the assignment of attribute information is possible. A wide range of built-in standard functions allows for operation without relying on customization. ■Specific Initiatives Improved search efficiency through the addition of properties. Organized the parts master, limiting manual input to order elements only. Integration with parts procurement lists and production management systems. Collaboration with manufacturing for equipment label data, etc. ■Effects As a result of these initiatives, a reduction of 14 to 20 hours of labor per order was achieved. Manual tasks were eliminated, leading to improved accuracy, standardization of work, and increased efficiency. From this experience, a foundation for utilizing data over manual work has been cultivated within the company for the past ten years, enabling smooth progress towards digital transformation (DX).

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has initiated various construction projects, and safety management and improvement of working conditions during the extreme heat of summer have become significant themes at civil engineering sites. Even as the concept of summer work stoppages spreads, it is important not to rely solely on stoppages but to focus on innovative temporary materials to improve daily site conditions. Hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering materials that utilize wooden CLT. They can be used in various civil engineering sites as a substitute for steel plates, including temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways. The 5×10 sheet weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 sheet weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of installation and removal. Thanks to the unique properties of wood, these sheets can help minimize glare compared to steel plates, making them useful for heat stroke prevention measures and environmental considerations during the summer. Additionally, they are expected to provide benefits in terms of construction efficiency and site environment, such as improved transportation efficiency and noise reduction. As a registered technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS "TH-250021-A," they are also recommended for creative proposals in public works. Please consider them as a new option for civil engineering sites looking to address heat-related issues, including summer work stoppages. We also accept inquiries for consultations on implementation tailored to site conditions and requests for materials. We can provide proposals for public works and private civil engineering projects both within and outside Okayama Prefecture. Please feel free to contact us.

In recent years, as infectious diseases have spread, there has been a demand for products that enable "contactless operation," and this trend has extended to environments where automatic doors were previously operated by touch switches. As the automation of doors and the non-contact operation of automatic doors become more widespread, do you have any of the following concerns? ☑ Although we have introduced automatic doors, they remain open due to people crossing frequently in busy areas. ☑ We implemented touch switches to reduce unnecessary opening and closing, but we are concerned about hygiene. ☑ Touch switches require battery replacements regularly since they are powered. The light beam touch sensor "HA-T401" allows automatic doors to open and close without physical contact, and its compact detection range makes it suitable for narrow passages and high foot traffic areas, contributing to energy savings and infection control. 【Benefits of Implementation】 ○ Adaptable to various door types with four different spot settings, ideal for busy roads and narrow passages. ○ Energy-saving effect with two setting modes that reduce unnecessary opening and closing of automatic doors. ○ Equipped with a light beam touch function, allowing doors to open and close simply by waving a hand, ensuring hygiene. ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.
