Remote operation becomes possible. - Improved safety... There is no need to approach dangerous areas. - Improved safety 2... Automation of switching piping lines for hazardous materials (such as hot water and hydrochloric acid) enhances worker safety by eliminating dangerous tasks. - Environmental improvement... Work in high-temperature, high-humidity, or dirty areas is eliminated. - Enhanced reliability... Prevents incomplete connections and human errors. - Energy savings... There is almost no external leakage during connection and disconnection. - Factory cleanliness... Hoses and wires do not get tangled, and floors are not contaminated with oil or water. Nabtesco Service has accumulated over 50 years of know-how in automatic connection and disconnection (piping and wiring). We have addressed issues such as misalignment during connection, response to reaction forces, handling of special liquids and powders, automation of production lines where metal (ions) leaching is undesirable, and automatic connection and disconnection of high currents. We have confidently provided custom solutions for special environments! If you have any concerns about automation, please feel free to consult us.

Automating and streamlining the work of attaching and detaching pipes! [Case study collection available]

Our company designs and manufactures "Auto Connectors (automatic attachment and detachment devices)," "Auto Couplers," and "automatic piping switching devices" to automate the attachment and detachment of piping and electrical wiring for liquids, slurries, and powders. We contribute to the automation of factories, increased productivity, and improved safety for workers. Regardless of whether it is fluids or powders, we offer custom design and manufacturing from individual couplers to entire systems based on customer requirements. ■ Case Study Collection Available We provide a "case study collection" summarizing examples from the following industries: chemicals, pharmaceuticals, daily necessities, food, beverages, automotive, industrial machinery, and steelmaking. ■ New Product Launch (Patent Pending) A new case for "Quitto," which will be launched at the end of 2024, has been added. This groundbreaking new product can shorten the attachment and detachment time of the helical clamp to just a few seconds. It can be done easily by anyone with one hand. The risk of dropping the gasket during connection is also minimized. We encourage you to try it out. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Demo units and cut models of the products are also available.

• Other Connectors

With over 50 years of extensive experience, we offer custom-made solutions tailored to your specifications. Since there are many examples that we cannot list, please consult with us first.

Automatically feeds powder, slurry, or liquid into containers moving on conveyors, AGVs, AMRs, forklifts, etc., and also discharges them. Of course, it can also accommodate tanks and flexible containers. We design and manufacture not only the connector part but the entire attachment device as a custom solution. We can also support automatic feeding and discharging of metal powders. Installation in explosion-proof plants and making contact parts chlorine-free and compatible with PTFE is also possible. We will design from scratch according to the user's application. Automatic feeding of powder Automatic discharging and discharge of powder Want to automate the feeding and discharging of raw materials And more Please consult us first.

• Pipe Fittings

Automation and unmanned operation for production in mobile tank plants! Automating dispensing, loading tasks, and connecting and disconnecting motor power supply. Also compatible with powders!

By using an automatic disconnecting device (auto connector, auto coupler, auto joint), the following disconnecting tasks can be automated at plants with mobile tanks, mobile containers, and mobile vessels: - Loading of raw materials (powder, slurry, liquid) at each station - Connecting and disconnecting power at mixers and reaction stations - Connecting and disconnecting hydraulic and air systems at heating stations, etc. - Discharging of products It is also compatible with powders, slurries, and liquids. In addition to power and materials, the connection and disconnection of N2 gas and air for pressurization can also be automated.

• Other industrial robots

A must-see for those struggling with manual pipe switching!

By driving a unit equipped with an automatic attachment/detachment connector (coupler) in the X and Y directions, it connects to any piping. - Physically disconnecting the piping allows for connections at necessary points, eliminating cross-contamination due to internal leaks. - Since there is no concern about cross-contamination, preventive maintenance like that required for automatic valves or valve blocks is unnecessary, leading to reduced running costs. - The ability to connect/switch in a single stroke reduces product loss, cleaning solutions, and waste liquids, contributing to the SDGs! - Compared to automatic valves and valve blocks, production constraints are eliminated. - A pigging system can also be installed, making it suitable for high-viscosity liquid systems, along with an inline flow meter for metering and dosing equipment! - There is a wealth of experience in switching processes for powders, hydrochloric acid, high-viscosity liquids, chemicals, and more!

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.

● 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! With one molding process, different products with similar shapes or varying dimensions can be molded at the same time. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. Many implementation examples are also presented, so please take a look at the case study page.

Parking space management refers to the real-time display of parking availability and the management of efficient use of parking spaces. By utilizing Hotron's sensors, drivers can quickly discover available parking spaces, enabling efficient parking lot operations. For large parking lots, we recommend the "Floor Management Method" and "Block Management Method," which focus on cost reduction. Sensors are installed at regular intervals to count and manage the number of passing vehicles. This method offers the advantages of easy installation and low costs. 【Target Products】 - Vehicle Count Sensor CCS2 - Ultrasonic Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 For smaller facilities, we recommend the "Parking Space Management Method," where sensors are installed in each parking space to display availability with high accuracy. By providing reliable occupancy information, this method helps reduce unnecessary entry of new vehicles and ensures safe parking lot operations. 【Target Products】 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-LC6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-LC7/LC7-FLS - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-S6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-S8
