It is a filter that efficiently cuts (reflects) short-wavelength UV (ultraviolet) light while allowing visible light to pass through.

What is a UV cut filter (ultraviolet cut filter)? It is a filter that cuts ultraviolet (UV) light while allowing visible light to pass through. In digital cameras, it is used to reduce chromatic aberration, and in liquid crystal projectors, it is used to prevent the degradation of liquid crystals and other optical components caused by the light from lamps (such as high-pressure mercury lamps), with the aim of cutting unnecessary ultraviolet light. Are you facing any of these issues? ◆ Is it possible to cut only the wavelength of ultraviolet light? ◆ Can a UV cut filter for projectors be coated? ◆ I would like to consult about the degradation of optical components. ◆ I would like to consult about filters that minimize the impact on the human body. ◆ Is it possible to custom adjust the wavelength range that I want to transmit?

It is a dielectric multilayer film filter that transmits visible light and reflects near-infrared light.

It is used as a near-infrared cut filter that adversely affects CCD devices such as video cameras. The optical characteristics, such as the wavelength position with a transmittance of 50%, transmittance, and cut wavelength band, can be set arbitrarily. (Are you facing such challenges?) Is it possible to cut only the wavelength of near-infrared light? I want to allow visible light to pass while blocking IR wavelengths. I want to suppress light that causes noise and increase the sensitivity of the sensor. Can the wavelength range I want to transmit be custom adjusted? Is it possible to process it to chip size?

It is an optical thin-film filter that reduces the reflectance at specific wavelengths and improves transmittance. By increasing the amount of light, it contributes to energy saving and power reduction.

Light reflects at the boundary surface with air, causing 4% reflection on one side and 8% reflection on both sides of the glass, resulting in a reflection of one's own image. An anti-reflective coating (AR = Anti Reflection Coating) is an optical thin film that utilizes the principle of interference by alternately depositing dielectrics with different refractive indices, reducing the reflectance of specific wavelengths and improving transmittance. Are you facing any of these issues? - Want to reduce reflections and ghosting in window materials? - Is there a way to improve visibility and achieve clearer image quality? - Looking to reduce internal reflections and prevent flare? - Want to increase light levels to contribute to energy savings? - Can we design an anti-reflective coating (AR) that takes the angle of incidence into account?

It is an optical filter that cuts ultraviolet and infrared light while having a high transmittance in the visible light range.

A UV-IR cut filter is a filter that cuts light in the ultraviolet and infrared regions while having a high transmission rate in the visible light region. In other words, it is an optical filter that simultaneously realizes the characteristics of both a UV cut filter and an IR cut filter. By placing it in front of CMOS sensors or CCD sensors, it serves multiple roles such as cutting noise light, providing heat protection against various light sources, and preventing degradation of liquid crystal components due to ultraviolet light. It is an excellent optical filter and optical thin film with multiple functions. Are you facing any of these issues? - Is it possible to cut both ultraviolet and near-infrared light? - Can a filter be made that allows visible light to pass while blocking IR and UV wavelengths? - I want to reduce noise light and increase sensor sensitivity. Can I consult about this? - Is it possible to customize the wavelength range that I want to transmit? - Is processing to chip size possible?

This is a mirror that reflects near-infrared light, which causes heat. It has a proven track record in projectors and lighting devices where temperature rise is a concern.

1) Are you facing such issues? ■ I want to prevent the temperature from rising due to near-infrared light emitted from the light source. ■ Projectors and lighting devices are getting too hot. ■ Is it possible to transmit visible light while reflecting near-infrared (NIR)? ■ Can the wavelength range of the mirror be customized? 2) What is a hot mirror? A hot mirror is used in projectors and lighting devices where temperature rise due to infrared radiation is a concern. By using a hot mirror, it is possible to suppress temperature rise and enable bright light source design. As for the coating, it has a special coating that transmits visible light and reflects more than 95% of near-infrared light (NIR). It is used in lighting equipment that employs halogen or xenon light sources, as well as in light source reflection mirrors for medical devices.

Standard stock items include anti-reflective films, bandpass filters (BPF filters), and infrared cut filters (IR cut filters), among others.

We will start selling some optical thin film products (optical filter products) and patterned processing products as "standard stock items." We have responded to such requests! ◆ It's difficult to bear the cost of a whole batch when only a few pieces are needed for experiments... ◆ I want to see product development and performance tests quickly, so I need a few pieces at different levels... ◆ I just want to try it out for now... We often hear such voices through inquiries from our website. Even if custom-made filters are ultimately needed, I believe it is very difficult to define complete filter performance from the beginning.

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 to 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 you require a detailed technical explanation, please contact us.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repair without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

We will be exhibiting our products at "JECA FAIR 2026 (the 74th Electrical Construction Exhibition)" held at Tokyo Big Sight. At this exhibition, we will be jointly exhibiting with Mibu Electric Manufacturing. Our booth will focus on the "Panel Manufacturing Skill-less Solution," which addresses the labor shortage issues in panel manufacturing that have required skilled workers, enabling less experienced operators to achieve high-quality manufacturing in processes such as wire processing, component assembly, and wiring work. We will also introduce various other products. We invite you to visit our booth during your visit. ■ Exhibition Name: JECA FAIR 2026 (the 74th Electrical Construction Exhibition) ■ Location: Tokyo Big Sight, Halls 1-3 ■ Booth Numbers: 1-01 ECAD Solutions, 1-02 Joint Exhibition with Mibu Electric Manufacturing ■ Dates: May 27 (Wednesday) - May 29 (Friday), 2026, for three days ■ Hours: May 27 (Wednesday) 10:30 AM - 5:00 PM May 28 (Thursday) 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM May 29 (Friday) 10:00 AM - 4:30 PM *For more information about the exhibited products, please download the materials.
