It can provide accurate and precise results for inspections that perform corrosion mapping of carbon steel pipes and elbows!

Pipelines are essential for the operations of various industries such as water, oil, gas, and power generation, and maintaining pipelines in proper condition is a top priority in these fields. Since they are typically made of iron or steel, corrosion poses a significant threat to safety. Therefore, non-destructive testing for pipeline corrosion is necessary, and ultrasonic testing has been widely accepted as an ideal technology for detecting corrosion in pipelines. Phased array ultrasonic testing allows for accurate wall thickness measurements, enabling the assessment of the presence of this invisible damage; however, issues have been pointed out regarding the inspection of pipes along bend sections. *For more detailed information, please refer to the PDF document.

In civil engineering sites, in addition to construction feasibility and safety, material selection that takes environmental considerations into account is required. Materials used for temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas are now focusing not only on traditional steel plates but also on materials that can contribute to reducing environmental impact. Hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering CLT materials made from wooden CLT. Because they utilize wood, they are characterized by their ability to easily connect to proposals that consider site environments, such as CO2 fixation, glare reduction, and noise reduction. The 5×10 sheet weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 sheet weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, thus helping to reduce the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. Furthermore, they can be used in a wide range of applications as an alternative to steel plates for measures against muddy conditions, ground protection, and ensuring work pathways. In public works, they are also easy to propose as materials that demonstrate the adoption of environmentally friendly materials and ingenuity during construction, which can lead to improved site evaluations. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," they can also be utilized as materials for proposals on creativity and environmental measures in public works. We recommend them as a new alternative to steel plates for companies considering environmental considerations, NETIS, civil engineering utilization, and civil engineering CLT. Please feel free to consult us.

Hello everyone! We are Nikken Coating Industry Co., Ltd., a specialized manufacturer of contract processing for fluororesin coatings and PEEK coatings. Thank you very much for visiting our booth at the recent "Mechanical Elements Technology Exhibition." Thanks to you, we were able to conclude the event successfully. At the exhibition, we proposed surface treatment solutions for the "five challenges (release, sliding, corrosion resistance, impurity measures, and environmental response)" that arise in manufacturing sites. Were there any technologies that caught your interest? ■ We are currently responding to inquiries made at the venue We are sequentially contacting those who made technical inquiries or requests for prototypes at our booth on the day of the event. If you have requests such as "I would like you to look at additional drawings" or "I need a quote urgently," please feel free to let us know. ■ For those who could not attend the exhibition or missed our booth We also welcome inquiries from customers who could not come to the venue, such as "coating for special shapes that other companies have declined" or "switching from existing coatings." If you have any concerns regarding "surfaces," please feel free to consult or contact us.

The particle visualization technology developed under our brand "ViEST" has a very high level of detection sensitivity that allows for real-time visualization of the suspended and adhered states of micro and nano-sized particles. We are engaged in the sale of visualization systems and contract services for evaluation (investigating particles and airflow in production processes, manufacturing equipment, and factory environments, evaluating the performance of cleaning products, proposing yield improvement measures, etc.) both domestically and internationally. In manufacturing environments, invisible fine foreign substances, dust generation, particle adhesion due to static electricity, and airflow disturbances can lead to quality defects and reduced yield. Our company clarifies these contamination factors through visualization technology and provides consistent support from identifying the source of the problem to considering and confirming improvement measures. Do you have any of the following concerns? - Unable to identify the cause of foreign matter contamination - Want to check airflow and cleanliness in clean rooms - Want to understand dust generation from manufacturing equipment and transport systems - Want to reduce particle adhesion to films and substrates - Want to improve contamination that causes yield reduction

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. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
