"Heating and Cooling Observation Device MHO-300-2" Just place it on your microscope! Compact and slim / Atmosphere control available.

Simply place it on the stage of your microscope or micro-scope to observe changes from -100°C to 300°C in real-time. In a hermetically sealed furnace, heating and cooling can be performed under various vacuum inert gas atmospheres. 【Points】 ▮ Flexible temperature control performance With the dedicated software "TeCSS," temperature programming and monitoring can be easily done (it can also be operated independently with the temperature controller). Additionally, it displays temperature, time, and scale, and allows for in-situ image capture and storage synchronized with actual temperature records using the dedicated video recording software "HiTOS." By adding a cooling mechanism, it can also accommodate -100°C. ▮ Compact and user-friendly design This heating and cooling stage is designed to be small and thin, making it easy to reproduce special conditions. In addition to observation applications under microscopes or micro-scopes, it can also be repurposed for analytical instruments such as laser microscopes, Raman spectroscopy, and micro-spectroscopy. ▮ Atmosphere control with vacuum chamber structure Due to its vacuum chamber structure, heating and cooling can be performed under vacuum inert gas atmospheres. It also allows for the exhaust of vapors such as degassed materials vaporized by heating, and a XY slideable specimen holder makes it easy to introduce and remove prepared samples.

We have added a new **"Glossary"** to the Hyper CLT sheet website. In the civil engineering and construction industries, there are many specialized terms such as "CLT," "NETIS," "temporary roads," and "wooden lightweight sheets." Therefore, we have introduced related terms in an easy-to-understand manner so that those who are encountering Hyper CLT sheets for the first time can understand the products and technologies. Hyper CLT sheets are wooden lightweight sheets for civil engineering that utilize wood CLT and are registered under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS technology as **"TH-250021-A."** We hope that by not only conveying the features of the product but also sharing the underlying technologies and terminology, users will feel a closer connection to Hyper CLT sheets. We will continue to enhance our website and provide clear information related to wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT.

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.

'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.*

On September 15, 2026, we issued a press release regarding the wooden lightweight sheet "Hyper CLT Sheet." The Hyper CLT Sheet is a civil engineering sheet that utilizes CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) stacked in an orthogonal direction. It can be used in various locations such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. The 5×10 version weighs approximately 230 kg, making it relatively lightweight and easy to install, remove, and relocate. Additionally, it offers environmental benefits such as reducing glare and metallic sounds typical of wood, as well as CO2 fixation. Furthermore, it can be proposed for the use of new technologies in public works as a **registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism "TH-250021-A."** Through this press release, we aim to expand the new wooden lightweight sheet that combines wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT to more construction sites.

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