A new 4G LTE communication module that enables wide-area communication for remote I/O systems has arrived!

The CPSN-COM-1GM1 is an I/O module designed to add 4G LTE communication capabilities to the CONPROSYS nano series programmable remote I/O coupler unit (CPSN-PCB271-S1-041), which is equipped with a CODESYS runtime compliant with IEC 61131-3. By adopting the Cat. M1 (Category M1) wireless communication standard for IoT devices and implementing it in the expansion slot of the coupler unit, it enables the transmission of collected data from remote locations for applications such as equipment monitoring. It is also easy to connect with our Web HMI/SCADA software, CONPROSYS HMI System (CHS), allowing for the straightforward construction and operation of monitoring and management systems for plants and production processes, making it possible to build IoT environments more affordably and conveniently. Additionally, for integration with cloud services such as AWS and Azure, it is possible to utilize the HTTP request functions provided by Contec, which are available in the CODESYS integrated development environment. 【Main Features】 ● Supports 4G LTE Cat.M1 communication ● Easy to install and remove ● Operates in ambient temperatures from -20 to 60°C ● No electrolytic capacitors used

Start with 50,000 yen for IoT, offering a one-stop solution from IoT gateways to HMI, VTC functions, and cloud services!

The CONPROSYS series provides a one-stop solution for the necessary IoT gateway, software (monitoring functions, simple processing and control functions, etc.), and upper servers that make up M2M/IoT solutions. It collects input and output from various sensors and PLC data through the controller, allowing data to be accumulated on the upper server. The upper server also offers various software development kits, including Contec cloud services, on-premises data collection software, and extended SDKs. Additionally, users can build monitoring screens using the HMI software standardly equipped in the controller. Furthermore, various task processing can be incorporated using the built-in VTC function, without the need for knowledge of programming languages or special development environments.

SPACECOOL Inc. was selected as one of the top three companies from over 1,500 applications across more than 100 countries in "The Liveability Challenge 2026," a global sustainability initiative hosted by the Temasek Foundation and operated by Eco-Business, and received the Investment Prize. The Liveability Challenge (TLC) is a global initiative that evaluates innovative solutions aimed at addressing urgent sustainability challenges in urban tropical regions. Our company was the only finalist from Japan in the Cool Earth category, which focuses on responding to climate change and heat stress. During the grand final held in Singapore on May 20, 2026, we made our final pitch on cooling solutions for tropical cities and received the Investment Prize. Encouraged by this award, SPACECOOL aims to use this opportunity to implement sustainable cooling solutions in the Southeast Asia region and further accelerate improvements in global heat-related challenges.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensors wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors wirelessly notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with a single receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. Many implementation examples are also presented, so please take a look at the case study page.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment 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.
