[Exhibition Information] PI Japan will exhibit at "OPIE'25".

Single-sided and double-sided, upright and low-profile, high-precision alignment routine.

A high-speed, high-precision photonics alignment system that combines a hexapod 6-axis motor stage with an XYZ-axis piezo stage. Optimized scan/alignment routines for SiPh wafers, photonic devices, PICs, and optical fibers, along with powerful array alignment algorithms, enable fast, high-precision, and simultaneous alignment. The hexapod operates with DC servo motor drive across 6 axes, allowing sub-micron positioning. Additionally, it allows for arbitrary setting of the rotation center to accommodate various devices. The XYZ-axis piezo stage enables nano-level positioning and allows for high-speed response and scanning at high resonance frequencies. Comprehensive and deep software support for rapid process development, including support for common languages such as C#, Python, LabVIEW, and MATLAB on Windows and Linux. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

The maximum travel range is 813mm! With the adoption of a circulating ball bearing, it can withstand up to 450N.

The "L/V-412, L/V-417" is a PIMag high-load linear stage that improves tracking performance due to the high resolution of the encoder. Tracking errors are reduced, and settling time is shortened. For maximum flexibility, you can choose between incremental and absolute encoders. 【Features】 ■ Maximum travel range: 813mm ■ Rated force: 87N ■ Choice of incremental/absolute encoder ■ Can withstand up to 450N due to the use of circulating ball bearings ■ Dust prevention with the use of a cover strap *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Linear motor

Zero wear with air levitation and linear motor. Maximum speed 2m/s, sensor resolution 1nm.

The PIglide IS A-311 is an air-bearing XY planar scanner that levitates the stage drive surface using air. With a flat structure thinner than stacked types, it achieves a compact device design while operating over a wide scanning range of 300 mm × 400 mm and a sensor resolution of 1 nm. The frictionless linear motor drive contributes to a high-speed response of up to 2 m/s and a load capacity of 147 N, aiding in reducing cycle times for laser processing and semiconductor wafer inspection. Its dust-free structure is suitable for clean rooms, and a rich array of controllers/APIs facilitates the integration of XY synchronization and area scanning.

Compact XY-axis stage with 22mm motion driven by piezo motor, self-locking for position holding.

The U-723 is a PILine XY stage that maintains the mechanical stability of the stage position through a self-locking drive when powered off. Power consumption and heat generation are significantly reduced. These characteristics are advantageous for applications with a small duty cycle, battery operation, or sensitivity to heat. The position of the axis is measured by an encoder, and a optical reference switch enables reliable and reproducible motion. 【Features】 ■ High-speed positioning in two axes ■ Lightweight and space-saving ■ High guide accuracy ■ Sensor resolution of 10nm ■ Self-locking in standby, no heat generation during standby ■ Low noise operation *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

3000 N pressing force / 700 N pulling force, 90 µm movement with sub-nanometer resolution, µs response.

The P-844/P-845, which features a PICMA® multi-layer stack housed in a preloaded metal case, is a high-load piezo actuator that operates with a maximum stroke of 90 µm at sub-nanometer precision, enabling a maximum pushing force of 3000 N and a pulling force of 700 N. The P-845 type includes a built-in strain gauge sensor (SGS) that directly measures and provides feedback on the piezo movement, minimizing hysteresis and drift. The P-844 is the version without a sensor. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

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.

Are you struggling to explain "safety" to the client using just drawings? - The risks in blind spots are difficult to convey to the client through drawings alone. - Safety measures often become a target for cost reduction, making it hard to communicate their necessity. - There is a concern that the client might say, "It's more dangerous than I thought," after completion. Risks that are visible to design professionals are not easily understood intuitively by clients who are outside the field. This document is not just a simple explanation of sensor functions; it is a guide to visually explain "why sensors are necessary in that location." It can be used directly as explanatory material for the client. Here are three key points for utilizing this document: 1. Visualization of Risks Blind spots during vehicle departure and contact risks within the site are illustrated clearly. 2. Clarification of Selection Criteria A comparison table outlines the differences between complex sensor types such as infrared, ultrasonic, and loop coils. 3. Diagram of System Configuration It illustrates not just the sensors alone, but how they combine with components like rotating lights and control panels, providing practical assistance for electrical equipment design. Please make use of this to prevent "rework after completion" and "accident risks."

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made the bed exit sensor wireless, allowing it to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ The bed exit sensor notifies wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with a single receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
