Information on the service for measuring the thermal conductivity of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP).

Leave the measurement of the thermal conductivity of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) to us.

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), used in electric vehicles, aircraft, satellites, and rockets, require precise knowledge of thermal conductivity. For instance, when used in electric vehicles, understanding thermal conductivity is essential for heating performance and battery thermal management. Changes in electricity consumption due to heating performance and thermal management significantly affect driving range. Similarly, when used in satellites and rockets in the harsh environment of space, it is necessary to understand thermal conductivity to ensure heat resistance performance. With Bethel, you can accurately measure the thermal conductivity of this carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP).

Are you measuring the correct thermal conductivity of the thermal pad?

A thermal pad is a type of thermal interface material used for heat dissipation in CPUs and power devices. Due to its flexibility and relatively high thermal conductivity, it effectively reduces contact thermal resistance by filling the gaps between the heat sink and the device. Do you accurately understand the thermal conductivity of thermal pads? Thermal pads have elasticity, so their contact state changes with pressure. In other words, the effective thermal conductivity varies with pressure. Additionally, many materials exhibit temperature dependence in thermal conductivity, meaning that as the temperature increases, the thermal conductivity decreases. In this instance, we measured a commercially available thermal pad with a specification of 1.5W/mK. This is a soft type referred to as a soft thermal pad. The measurement device used is our steady-state thermal conductivity measurement device, the SS-H40.

• Contract measurement

Thermal conductivity distribution measurement and the anisotropy of thermal diffusivity in each part can be evaluated.

In recent years, the miniaturization and high output of electronic devices have rapidly advanced, and as a result, thermal management (heat dissipation) has become a very important issue. Traditionally, heat dissipation has been maintained by using metals, but in recent years, it has begun to be replaced by "high thermal conductivity resins." High thermal conductivity resins are "lightweight" and have "moldability" compared to traditional metals, are "corrosion-resistant," and above all, have the advantage of being "low-cost." However, there is also the disadvantage of low thermal conductivity, and many material manufacturers are actively developing solutions to address this issue. It is expected that "high thermal conductivity resins" will become mainstream in the future. On the thermal properties blog, we introduce examples of thermal conductivity measurements of "high thermal conductivity resins." http://blog.thermal-measurement.info/archives/cat_50051425.html

The "Hotron Non-Contact Switch" allows you to open and close doors without directly touching door knobs or switches, making it hygienic! You can choose from two types: the "Hand Wave Sensor," which only requires you to wave your hand, and the "Foot Switch," which only requires you to place your foot in front of it. It reduces the risk of virus and bacteria transmission in places where hygiene is a concern, such as food factories, restaurants, hospitals, and nursing facilities. 【Features】 ○ Reduces the risk of virus transmission by allowing door operation without contact ○ A wide variety of options to choose from based on application and location ○ Ideal for places where hygiene is a priority, such as food factories and medical facilities ○ Prevents unnecessary detection due to the switch mechanism 【Product Lineup】 ■ Hand Wave Sensor Series ○ Exposed waterproof type, front, down, and side-facing types "PF-R5" ○ Exposed type, front-facing type "PF-R1" ○ Embedded type, front-facing type "PF-U2" ○ Exposed type, downward wide type "PF-R4" ■ Foot Switch Series ○ Slim type with wide opening, vertical beam type "PF-01S" ○ Slim type with wide opening, horizontal beam type "PF-03S" ○ Standard type, horizontal beam type "PF-05" ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

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.

They manage vehicle presence, full parking, and exit warnings in parking lots, contributing to safe driving and smooth operational management within the parking area. They are used in various settings, from coin-operated parking to large-scale parking lots.

Various greases are used for the lubrication of molds and machine parts, but in high-temperature environments, the performance of standard lithium greases significantly decreases, leading to issues such as seizure and galling. So, how should one choose "high-temperature greases"? First, the heat resistance temperature should be noted. Typical lithium-based greases have a limit of around 200°C, but in mold environments, conditions can reach 400°C to 800°C. In such cases, high-temperature greases that use heat-resistant additives or special base oils are essential. Second, oxidation stability is also important. When the oil oxidizes due to rising temperatures, the lubricating film is lost, and component wear progresses rapidly. Third, the initial break-in performance should not be overlooked. The ability to form a smooth film during startup at high temperatures can greatly affect the lifespan. For example, the "Golden Grease Series" can handle mold environments up to 800°C due to its hybrid design of inorganic and organic components. It allows for lubrication, release, and rust prevention all at once, leading to more efficient mold maintenance. In workplaces struggling with high-temperature environments, choosing such specialized greases can achieve both increased production efficiency and cost reduction.

The 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo will feature the theme "Designing a Future Society Where Life Shines," showcasing numerous cutting-edge visual productions and experiential exhibits. Central to creating immersive video experiences that strongly engage visitors is projector technology. Supporting this performance at its core are optical thin films (optical filters) applied to lenses and optical components. As brightness and resolution increase, the quality of optical thin films directly impacts the clarity, color reproduction, and durability of the images. The "amazingness" of the video technology at this Kansai Expo has evolved beyond merely providing visual information to becoming a means of reconstructing the space itself. In particular, in the field known as "immersive video," stimulating multiple senses such as sight, hearing, and touch allows viewers to be drawn into the narrative, blurring the boundaries between reality and the virtual experience. 【1】The Power of Video Supporting Immersive Experiences 【2】What is a Three-Sided Screen? - The Key to Video Production Supported by Projectors 【3】What are the Representative Pavilions Where You Can Actually See a Three-Sided Screen at the Expo? 【4】What Optical Thin Films are Necessary for Projectors to Achieve a Three-Sided Screen? 【5】What is the Future Where Three-Sided Screens and Projectors are Introduced into Homes?
