Achieve pellet-based modeling in a tabletop size!

"Tumaker" is a desktop-sized FGF method 3D printer that uses pellets as its material. *Demonstration available.

"Tumaker" is a desktop-sized FGF (Fused Granular Fabrication) 3D printer that uses pellets as its material. It can be utilized for material research and development. [Features] ■ Adoption of IDEX printing head It employs the IDEX (Independent Dual Extruder) system, where two printing heads operate independently. You can use just one head, or combine both heads to enable various types of fabrication. The dual-head system allows you to choose from two types of materials: pellets and filaments, which can be freely combined. ■ High positioning accuracy in the drive components It features high positioning accuracy with low-vibration stepping motors and drivers. The precise and smooth operation of the printing head ensures stable fabrication throughout the process. ■ High-temperature equipment for various materials With a nozzle that heats up to 300°C and a table that can reach 100°C, it supports a wide range of materials. Being an open material system, you can freely choose from general-purpose materials, original materials, and recycled pellets, among others. *For more details, please request a catalog or view the PDF data from the download button below.

Automatically replenish pellet materials!? Tumaker NX 300/BigFoot 500 Modular "Pellet Feeder"

The 3D printer "Tumaker NX 300 modular/BigFoot 500 Modular" is compact yet capable of 3D printing using pellet materials. We have received numerous inquiries from those wanting to try various materials! This 3D printer allows you to easily start printing by simply loading the material into the hopper, but the storage capacity is about 0.3L. Therefore, when performing long-duration prints, it is necessary to manually refill the material. Some of you might be wondering, "Do I have to refill the material every time I print?" or "I'm worried about when the material will run out..." That's why we are introducing the optional "Pellet Feeder." By switching to the hopper for the feeder, it can detect the remaining amount during printing and automatically supply pellets! The documentation provides a detailed explanation of how the material supply system works, so please take a look. *You can download the documentation using the button below.

3D Printing with Pellets on Your Desktop! Explaining the Amazing Features of the "Tumaker NX・BIGFoot Series" Print Head | System Create

Marsugo is a document that picks up the functions and features of various products and introduces the "amazing!" aspects. 3D printers that can create shapes using pellet materials are gaining attention. However, due to structural limitations, most of them are large in size... Have you ever thought that it would be more convenient if there were smaller printers available? Introducing the newly launched desktop 3D printer "Tumaker NX Pro・BIGFoot Pro series," which can use both pellet and filament materials. To set up the materials, simply load the pellet material into the hopper. After that, you can use it with a user experience that is almost the same as a typical FDM 3D printer. In this document, we provide a detailed explanation of the unique structure and mechanism of the print head that enables stable printing with pellets, so please take a look. *You can download the document using the button below.

CLT, which has been widely adopted in the construction field, is now expanding its applications into the civil engineering sector. The "Hyper CLT Mats" are civil engineering CLT products that utilize wood CLT as temporary materials. Traditionally, steel plates have been the mainstream choice for temporary roads, access routes, and heavy machinery yards. The Hyper CLT Mats introduce a new option of "wood" to that market. The 5x10 mats weigh approximately 230 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove with small machinery, with a maximum capacity of 40 mats on a 10-ton truck. They also have advantages in terms of workability and transportation efficiency. Moreover, they offer added value that can only be achieved with wood, such as glare reduction, noise control, CO2 fixation, and consideration for aesthetics. This product is expected to be a new proposal for not only construction companies but also building material firms, lumber companies, and material trading companies. It is a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS, with the registration number "TH-250021-A." The use of wood is not limited to construction anymore. The utilization of Hyper CLT Mats is expanding as a new market that connects civil engineering and wood.

Fukuda Corporation has been pursuing leak detection for 60 years and is dedicated to advancing the future of leak testing. 【 Supporting Various Leak Tests: Air Leak Test / Gas Leak Test (Hydrogen Gas, Helium Gas) 】 We develop, manufacture, and sell leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing performance.

In civil engineering sites such as mountainous areas and construction sites, it may be necessary to use wooden boards on slopes or inclined access roads. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT, which can be laid not only on flat ground but also on sloped terrain. They can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery entry paths, and measures against muddy conditions, creating a driving environment that takes advantage of the unique surface characteristics of wood. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, which is a notable feature for maneuverability in narrow sites. This wooden board is registered as a technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS system as "TH-250021-A," and can also be utilized for safety measures and innovative ideas in public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding 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" or "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks 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 performed even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.
