Reusing cutting fluids for machine tools and tank cleaning.

**APDQO Series** APDQO-FS (Stainless Steel Filter) APDQO-FF (Non-woven Fabric Filter) APDQO-FB (Bag Filter) ◎ Does not use electricity ◎ Automatically stops when full ◎ Equipped with a safety valve as standard **Benefits** ● Enables reuse of cutting fluid ● Improves tool life ● Safe with no electric leakage due to air drive ● Cleaning time as short as 5 minutes **Features** ● Designed specifically for JIS standard 200L open drums ● Capable of separating cutting fluid and chips ● Safety valve and float included as standard **Applications** The air-operated tank cleaning filtration cleaner APDQO-F series is capable of cleaning tanks of machine tools and filtering and separating both "liquids" and "solids." Therefore, in addition to filtering chips and sludge from machine tools, it can also be used for the following purposes: ● Cleaning machine tool tanks (removing chips and sludge and reusing cutting fluid) ● Separating and sorting food waste in wastewater at food processing plants (restaurants) ● Separating water and sludge from mountains and rivers ● Separating and sorting waste and sewage

Cutting fluids for machine tools can be reused! Tank cleaning time is significantly reduced!

Cleaning the coolant tank that used to take a whole day is now done in just 10 minutes! Improving cleaning efficiency and reducing unpleasant odors contribute to environmental enhancement!

The automotive manufacturer Company I had three people cleaning the coolant tanks of machine tools, which took almost a whole day and had become the norm (standard operation). Therefore, we introduced 'APDQO-F'. It can be operated by one person, and the work time was remarkably improved to about 10 minutes. Additionally, for machine tools that were difficult to manage, we had been outsourcing the work, which incurred costs. However, after the introduction, we were able to perform the work in-house, resulting in cost savings. 【Solution】 ■ APDQO-FF Non-woven fabric filter type for drum cans - Replaceable non-woven fabric, disposable type ■ APDQO-FS SUS filter type for drum cans - The filter is made of stainless steel, allowing for repeated use *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

When considering cost reduction at civil engineering sites, it is important to compare not only the purchase price of materials but also transportation costs, heavy machinery costs, and the personnel and time required for installation and removal. Hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering CLT materials that utilize laminated CLT. They can be used as an alternative to steel plates for temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and measures against muddy conditions. The 5×10 sheet weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 sheet weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to increase the number of sheets transported at one time, which leads to a reduction in transport frequency and transportation costs. They are also easy to handle with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of using large cranes and installation work. Repeated reuse can also be expected to reduce material costs per site. Furthermore, there are added values unique to wood, such as glare and noise reduction, and CO2 fixation. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," these wooden sheets can be utilized for cost improvements that combine construction efficiency, environmental consideration, and creativity.

We have published two application pages for the non-contact, camera-less monitoring sensor "MotionCatch." You can view them from the related products section below. 【Published Pages】 - MotionCatch | Non-contact monitoring sensor for public facilities SE - MotionCatch | Smart home monitoring sensor SE 【Features of MotionCatch】 - Detects human movement non-contact using millimeter-wave radar and AI. - No cameras used and no video recording. Provides monitoring with consideration for privacy. - Palm-sized. Simply install on walls or ceilings without the need for wiring (USB powered, Wi-Fi). - The detection range of one unit is approximately 6m x 4m. It is suitable for monitoring "by room" rather than the entire floor. We are accepting inquiries regarding installation conditions and trial implementations (PoC). *No video is recorded. This is a product designed to assist monitoring and is not a medical device.
