The 2024 Logistics Problem: Solutions to Your Concerns at JALOC!

The impact on delivery deadlines and the key to resolution are "loading and unloading" and "eliminating waiting time"! What are the methods for streamlining within a limited timeframe?

Starting from April 2024, due to the reform of truck drivers' working conditions (commonly referred to as the 2024 problem), there are beginning to be shipments that cannot be delivered by the usual deadlines. To resolve delivery delays, cooperation between warehouses and drivers will be essential moving forward. This includes having the warehouse handle loading and unloading tasks, reducing drivers' waiting times caused by occupied temporary storage, and establishing work methods that do not waste time for either party. To achieve this, reforms in storage areas and platforms where work takes place are necessary. JALOC can propose various solutions that are expected to improve transportation efficiency. ■ J-Slope: Improves working time during loading and unloading ■ Shuttle Runner: Achieves cost reduction and shorter fork work time with a semi-automated system ■ Auto Mover: Reduces inbound and outbound shipping times with an automated system ■ BYD Low Lift: Shortens movement time within the warehouse and addresses labor shortages ■ Dock System: Prevents accidents during operations in dock bays and dock areas For more details, please download the document "Logistics Warehouse Measures for the 2024 Problem" and the catalogs for each product, and feel free to contact us.

In areas such as construction sites and mountainous regions after rain, the ground can become muddy, causing vehicle and heavy machinery tires to sink. If the tracks become deep, it can lead to decreased work efficiency and changes in the flow of movement on site. Hyper CLT mats are lightweight wooden mats that utilize CLT. By laying them down on temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas, they can reduce the area where vehicles make direct contact with the ground, serving as a measure to mitigate the disturbance of weak ground. The 5×10 mats weigh approximately 230 kg, making them relatively lightweight, and depending on site conditions, they can be easily installed, removed, or relocated using small machinery. It is also possible to consider replacing them in necessary locations according to the progress of construction and the condition of the ground. However, wooden mats alone do not completely reinforce the ground. It is important to check the ground's bearing capacity, settlement, slope, drainage, and vehicle weight, and to use them in combination with crushed stone, ground improvement, and fixing methods. Hyper CLT mats are registered under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." With wooden mats, NETIS, civil engineering, CLT, and lightweight wooden mats as new options, stable work pathways can be created on sites with weak ground.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" or "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repair without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model production is not required, the time needed to create 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 variations in dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

Do you have any concerns or requests regarding wired bed exit sensors? × Tangling and tripping of wired cables × Cable disconnection or damage × Worry about forgetting to turn on the switch after temporarily stopping the sensor. × Want to be notified of bed exit even from a location away from the nurse call outlet. Such concerns can be resolved simply by connecting to a wireless set linked to the nurse call system! Our nurse call linked wireless set allows you to connect bed exit sensors like "Ugo-kun," "Foldable Thin Matta-kun," "Ayumi-chan," and "Just Place Pole-kun" to transmitters and receivers, reducing wiring around the bed, alleviating concerns about tripping and falling due to cables, and contributing to a tidier work environment. Furthermore, it enables the use of bed exit sensors even from locations away from the nurse call outlet, allowing for more flexible equipment placement.

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.*
