◆Yoshida SKT Co., Ltd.◆ NEW "What is the difference between PTFE and PFA? Technical documentation" has been released.

A detailed explanation of the differences between PTFE and PFA, which are surprisingly not well known, including their molecular structures and properties!

The technical document "Differences Between PTFE and PFA" provides a detailed explanation of PTFE, PFA, FEP, and ETFE, covering everything from molecular structure to properties. Fluoropolymers are well-known for their functionality, such as being non-stick and slippery, but many people may not be aware of their various types and differences. This single volume allows for a thorough understanding of the differences and characteristics of each. If you are interested, please feel free to download it.

We would like to introduce the '96 WJacket Tubes 1.0ml Type' handled by FCR and Bio Co., Ltd. This product is an autoclavable tube with a 2D code that is compatible with DMSO and liquid nitrogen vapor. The type with Rack ID allows you to use a reader that can read both the Tube ID and Rack ID simultaneously by simply scanning the 2D code for Rack ID on the bottom of the Rack. 【Features】 ■ Polypropylene ■ Autoclavable ■ DMSO compatible ■ Compatible with liquid nitrogen vapor ■ Capacity: 1.0ml *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out 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. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● To determine the sealing and waterproofing of sealed products based on pressure changes, it is not necessary to conduct tests that involve spraying water on the product or immersing it in water. ● Once the product is placed in a dedicated fixture within the inspection device, waterproofing can be quantitatively confirmed through automatic measurement. ● The target product size is W 300 × D 210 × H 100 mm or smaller. ● The target products include automotive cameras, smartphones, ECUs, small motors, and other packaging containers, and are effective for any products that require confirmation of sealing, waterproofing, and airtightness. ● For product specifications and details, please contact us.

In battery manufacturing lines, if components containing copper are used, there is a possibility that metal powder may mix in, dissolve, ionize, and pass through the separator, causing a malfunction that connects the positive and negative electrodes. Such minute metal powders may not be detected during pre-shipment inspections, and even if they are found, they can lead to various issues, such as the need to increase inspection processes to detect them. Therefore, Fukuda has developed a copper-free (all stainless steel) air leak tester that can be safely used in the production lines of battery manufacturers and secondary battery manufacturing equipment manufacturers. For product specifications and details, please refer to the "Related Product Information" and "Related Catalogs" below.

This is an air leak tester for battery cases of electric vehicles (EVs). The battery case has the characteristic of being "large with a significant internal volume, and its structure may deform due to internal pressure." As a result, air leak testing generates "noise caused by its large size and capacity" and "noise caused by expansion or deformation due to internal pressurization." To mitigate this noise, this device features a newly developed smoothing function and a linear fitting correction function used in combination during measurement. Additionally, to achieve low-pressure control that is difficult to manage and to expand flow for large volumes, we provide a bypass box (CBU-600) equipped with an electro-pneumatic regulator for precise pressure control and a pressurization valve with a large effective diameter to supply high flow rates. Measurement methods: Work-Work comparison, Work-Master comparison, Fixed Master comparison Measurement pressure range: 10 kPa, 20 kPa, 50 kPa (depending on specifications) Gauge pressure sensor accuracy: ±2% F.S. Differential pressure sensor accuracy: ±0.5% F.S. Group settings: 0 to 31 groups Power supply voltage / Power consumption: AC100 to 240 V / 100 VA
