We exhibited at "Film Tech Japan 2023."

It has become possible to measure gel time with sheets such as glass fiber prepreg and carbon fiber prepreg.

Until now, it has been difficult to measure extremely thin prepreg sheets and carbon fiber prepreg sheets, but it is now possible to measure gel time while keeping them in sheet form. Measurement of liquids and powders is also possible. - Direct measurement of sheet-like materials eliminates the need for powdering PCB prepregs. Direct measurement of PCB prepregs, carbon prepregs, etc. is possible. Measurement of RCC (resin-coated copper foil) is also possible. - Measurement from thin to thick materials with a single sheet. Supports from 10um ultra-thin prepregs to thick non-woven fabrics. - Measurement of powder and liquid samples that was difficult with the stirring torque method. Broad compatibility with samples containing highly filled fillers, anaerobic samples, gel-like samples, etc. - Visualization of curing behavior in graphs. Calculates and graphs viscosity, phase difference, shear modulus, etc. from the measured stress. - Measurement of the viscoelasticity of fluids. Rheological measurement of non-Newtonian fluids such as samples that do not cure. - Confirmation of stress, viscosity, and phase data is possible.

• Testing Equipment and Devices

Accurately measure gel time! You can easily create control charts, histograms, and Pareto charts from statistical data.

To conduct effective and accurate analysis in the manufacturing field, it is important to objectively analyze actual data rather than relying on the experience or intuition of the measurer. The gel time measurement device "Madoka" can measure gel time with good reproducibility, eliminating the need for skilled techniques. Statistical methods can be employed to improve the efficiency of quality control operations. Challenges in Gel Time Measurement ■ Skilled techniques are required for measurement → By simply selecting the registered measurement conditions, the same results can be obtained regardless of the skill level of the person measuring. ■ Standardization of measurement criteria is difficult → Automated measurement allows for operation under the same conditions between factories and suppliers. ■ It takes time to compile the vast amount of data measured By utilizing dedicated software, management charts, Pareto charts, and histograms for the necessary resins and lots/periods can be easily created.

• Testing Equipment and Devices

It is possible to measure the thermal conductivity, thermal resistance, and interfacial thermal resistance of TIMs in thin films of less than 50μm in conditions close to actual products.

The measurement samples (gel-like liquids, sheets, solids) are measured between two metal test heads with known thermal conductivity (aluminum or copper) in the shape of a cylinder or rectangular prism. The temperature gradient ΔT and heat flow Q in the sample are measured, and the effective thermal resistance Rtheff is determined. By applying pressure and changing the thickness of the sample while repeating the measurements, the thermal conductivity (W/m·K), thermal resistivity (mm²·K/W), and interfacial thermal resistivity (mm²·K/W) of the sample can be calculated using the formulas and graphs below. TIMA5 is a groundbreaking device that can control the sample thickness (gap), pressure, or sample temperature for measurements.

In civil engineering sites, the use of sheet piling methods is essential for safely utilizing the site, including temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and worker pathways. Traditionally, steel plates have been widely used, but due to their weight, they can be cumbersome to transport, install, and remove. Hyper CLT sheet piles are civil engineering materials made from wooden CLT for civil use. The 5×10 panel weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle with small machinery, contributing to reduced burdens during installation and improved work efficiency. They can be utilized in a wide range of civil engineering sites for measures against muddy conditions, ground protection, heavy machinery scaffolding, and ensuring pedestrian pathways. As a registered technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS "TH-250021-A," it is also recommended as a material for innovative ideas, safety measures, and environmental considerations in public works.

Fukuda Co., Ltd. has been pursuing leak detection for 60 years and is committed to advancing the future of leak testing. 【 Supporting Various Leak Tests: Air Leak Test / Gas Leak Test (Hydrogen Gas, Helium Gas) 】 We develop, manufacture, and sell leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing properties. We will propose the appropriate testers and devices for each inspection target. 【 Target Industries and Examples of Inspection Targets 】 - Automotive Industry: Engines, FC components, valves and piping, various parts - Electronic Components Industry: Smartphones, keyless switches, various small sensors - Pharmaceuticals / Food / Cosmetics Industry: Bottle containers, syringes, vials, eye drop containers, pillow packaging, PTP packaging We will propose the most suitable leak testers for each industry. 【 ISO Certification 】JIS Q 9001:2015 (ISO 9001:2015)

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery workspaces, and material storage areas use ground plates. Traditional steel plates are heavy, requiring large machinery for installation and removal, which can make work difficult in narrow sites. Hyper CLT ground plates are lightweight civil engineering CLT materials made from wooden CLT for civil use. A 5×10 plate weighs about 230 kg, and a 5×20 plate weighs about 460 kg, making them easy to handle even with small machinery, thus reducing the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. They are easy to use in sites with limited space or where the use of large machinery is difficult. They can be widely used for temporary roads, heavy machinery scaffolding, pathways within the site, and material storage protection, contributing to glare reduction, noise reduction, and environmental consideration. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," they are also recommended as materials for innovative ideas and safety measures in public works.

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.
