Quickly detect abnormalities in the manufacturing site and respond swiftly with accurate understanding of the causes!

Using the piezoelectric load sensor "PiezoBolt," we measure loads and analyze phenomena occurring at "processing points" that were previously unseen. Based on the analysis results, we identify precursors to the occurrence of defective products and implement countermeasures against defects. This solution addresses various challenges in the production site, including equipment maintenance and anomaly detection. 【Monitoring Examples in Forging】 ■ Detection of mold cracks ■ Prediction of punch wear and lifespan ■ Evaluation of lubricating oil 【Monitoring Examples in Press Forming】 ■ Detection of punch breakage ■ Prediction of foreign object embedding ■ Detection of scrap accumulation ■ Equipment maintenance for press machines 【Monitoring Examples in Cutting】 ■ Detection of cutting tool defects 【Monitoring Examples in Casting】 ■ Detection of abnormalities in casting formation *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Visualizing processing points! Load sensors that enable real-time anomaly detection.

PiezoBolt is a load sensor that incorporates a piezoelectric sensor unit embedded within a bolt that meets JIS standards. By utilizing the piezoelectric effect, which generates voltage when force (pressure) is applied, it is capable of measuring minute changes in load. When combined with a measurement system, it enables real-time monitoring of equipment and tools, as well as anomaly detection. ◎ High Sensitivity Excellent responsiveness, allowing for highly sensitive measurements. ◎ Ease of Use Compliant with JIS standard bolt sizes, it can be installed directly in place of existing bolts for measurement. ◎ Durability With a dust and water protection rating equivalent to IP65, it can be used up to 80°C. A high-performance sensor suitable for mass production environments. ◎ Flexibility The piezoelectric element responds to axial forces, detecting changes not only in compression but also in tension.

Fukuda Co., Ltd., which develops, manufactures, and sells leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing performance, provides a technical document that clearly explains the methods and theories of airtight testing, titled "Technical Manual." We are offering it as a PDF file. Please take this opportunity to download and view it!

● What is a hydrogen leak detector? It can measure leaks in small areas that could not be detected in air leak tests and can also identify the leak locations. It is a detector that uses a mixture of 5% hydrogen and 95% nitrogen (non-flammable gas: ISO10156:2017) as the tracer gas. ● What is a helium leak test system? It is a leak test system suitable for high-precision or high-pressure leak inspections. The helium leak test system uses helium gas as the detection gas (tracer gas) and detects the helium that has leaked out. It is the leak test method among Fukuda's leak testers that can detect the smallest leaks.

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.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where sheet boards are used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. Traditionally, steel plates have been the mainstream choice, but due to their weight, they require considerable effort for transportation, installation, and removal, which can affect work efficiency depending on site conditions. Hyper CLT sheet boards are civil engineering materials made from CLT, which is wood. While being a sheet board that utilizes wood, it can serve as an alternative to steel plates for measures against muddy conditions, ground protection, and ensuring work pathways. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, contributing to reduced handling and construction burdens on site. Additionally, the unique properties of wood help in reducing glare, lowering noise, and fixing CO2, leading to environmentally friendly proposals. By leveraging the characteristics of wood instead of steel, it also aids in improving the working environment during summer and addressing noise issues in surrounding areas. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," it is an easily applicable alternative material for public works that encourages creativity and safety measures. It is recommended for companies considering wood, sheet boards, timber, civil engineering applications, and civil engineering CLT. We also accept requests for materials tailored to site conditions and consultations for implementation. Proposals can be made for both public and private construction projects.
