Easy integration with Excel and familiar electronic form systems! Wireless data transmission digital torque wrench with angle measurement function "CEM3-BTLA".

**Features** - Equipped with HOGP profile (keyboard interface). - Capable of wireless communication with Windows and iOS devices. - Easy integration with data entry into Excel and familiar electronic forms systems. - As of May 2022, confirmed systems for integration include i-Reporter (Simtops Co., Ltd.) and XC-Gate (Techno Tree Co., Ltd.) (in no particular order). - The CEM3-BTLA is a special specification product of the CEM3-BTA, allowing for torque and angle measurement similar to the -BTA, enabling detection of various tightening anomalies such as double tightening and "spring washer assembly omission," which facilitates advanced pass/fail judgment and is expected to improve the reliability of tightening fundamentally. - For CEM3-BTLA with firmware version Ver2.1 or later, the end code of the transmitted data can now select "TAB key." This allows for automatic input after data entry into XC-Gate without the operator needing to tap the screen each time, enhancing the usability of XC-Gate. ■ The CEM3-BTLA is a special specification product of the CEM3-BTA. (Please refer to the CEM3-BTA series for detailed specifications.)

Automatically wirelessly transmits torque and angle to Windows and iOS devices with a "Kachin!" sound. Click-type wireless data transmission torque wrench CSPBTLD.

【Features】 - HOGP type. - Automatically transmits torque and angle data wirelessly with a "click!" when the set torque is reached. Data acquisition can be performed effortlessly with a similar working sensation as a conventional click-type torque wrench. - Pass/fail judgment based on pre-set tightening torque and angle. The LED display on the CSPBTLD body shows blue (pass) / red (fail), making it easy for the operator to understand the result at a glance. - Equipped with HOGP profile (keyboard interface). - Capable of wireless communication with Windows and iOS devices. - Easy integration with data input to Excel and familiar electronic form systems. - As of July 2022, confirmed systems for integration include i-Reporter (Simtops Co., Ltd.) and XC-Gate (Techno Tree Co., Ltd.). (In no particular order) - CSPBTLD is a special specification product of FDD. It enhances FDD's angle measurement function, allowing for advanced pass/fail judgments such as measuring tightening torque and angle, detecting double tightening or "galling," and detecting "forgetting to install spring washers," thereby improving the reliability of tightening fundamentally.

A practical Japanese-English torque training seminar that will be immediately useful for business starting tomorrow. The number of participating companies has exceeded 3,058 with 7,896 people! From the basics of torque management to repair and calibration.

■Catalog updated! The schedule has been updated until the end of May 2024. ■We have decided to regularly hold a repair and calibration course for the compact preset torque wrench "QL5 series," which has a small body and a large torque scale, as it was highly requested. ◆The "Tohnichi Torque Seminar," which is immediately useful for business, has seen participation from over 3,300 companies and more than 8,300 individuals (cumulative from November 1999 to March 2023). ◆In the T course, you can learn the basics of torque management and torque equipment. It is suitable for those who are about to implement torque management or for training workers/new employees. Particularly in practical sessions, we have devised ways to deepen understanding of torque management through hands-on experience. ◆In the R1-1/R1-2 (Calibration/Repair) course, you can learn the methods for repairing and calibrating torque wrenches/torque drivers. This course is suitable for companies that own testers or are planning to implement "in-house calibration and repair." ◆The R1-3 course teaches the repair and calibration methods for the preset torque wrench 'QL5/CL5 series,' which allows for easy and reliable torque settings with a large torque scale. ◆The R3 course is designed to enable in-house calibration and simple adjustments of torque wrench testers/torque driver testers.

We have added a new **"Glossary"** to the Hyper CLT sheet website. In the civil engineering and construction industries, there are many specialized terms such as "CLT," "NETIS," "temporary roads," and "wooden lightweight sheets." Therefore, we have introduced related terms in an easy-to-understand manner so that those who are encountering Hyper CLT sheets for the first time can understand the products and technologies. Hyper CLT sheets are wooden lightweight sheets for civil engineering that utilize wood CLT and are registered under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS technology as **"TH-250021-A."** We hope that by not only conveying the features of the product but also sharing the underlying technologies and terminology, users will feel a closer connection to Hyper CLT sheets. We will continue to enhance our website and provide clear information related to wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT.

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.*

On September 15, 2026, we issued a press release regarding the wooden lightweight sheet "Hyper CLT Sheet." The Hyper CLT Sheet is a civil engineering sheet that utilizes CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) stacked in an orthogonal direction. It can be used in various locations such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. The 5×10 version weighs approximately 230 kg, making it relatively lightweight and easy to install, remove, and relocate. Additionally, it offers environmental benefits such as reducing glare and metallic sounds typical of wood, as well as CO2 fixation. Furthermore, it can be proposed for the use of new technologies in public works as a **registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism "TH-250021-A."** Through this press release, we aim to expand the new wooden lightweight sheet that combines wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT to more construction sites.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

The "HA-T Series" is an energy-saving automatic door sensor that opens only for those who wish to enter, whether on a busy street or in a narrow passageway.
