"Efficient management of drawings with AI" - With simple operations, "AI (artificial intelligence)" searches for past similar drawings.

【Manage Drawings with AI! Supporting DX Promotion】 This is software that uses AI image recognition technology to search for and extract similar drawings (floor plans). 【Benefits of Introducing AI Similar Drawing Search Tool】 ▷ Easy operation allows "AI (artificial intelligence)" to search for past similar drawings ▷ Reduces search workload and improves estimation accuracy and speed ↑ ▷ Shares points of caution from similar drawings, enhancing work accuracy ↑ ■ Unique Technology (Patent Pending) The AI similar drawing search is equipped with Technoa's unique "AI that captures both local shapes of parts and overall shapes." It automatically encloses the relevant parts of 2D drawing data using a deep learning-based object detection algorithm, searching for and extracting similar drawings.

Utilizing AI image recognition. Implementation and operation are possible even without in-depth knowledge of IoT! *Currently offering a free "IoT Idea Book."

The "A-Eye Camera" is an IoT platform that enables centralized collection of operational data from machines and equipment of different manufacturers and ages in the manufacturing sites of small and medium-sized enterprises. It not only achieves the "visualization of operational rates" required from the collection of operational information of machines and equipment but also realizes the "visualization of production efficiency" derived from production plans and actual results, such as the number of products processed and the time taken. Additionally, by utilizing the data accumulated in the "A-Eye Camera" to analyze the validity of standard man-hours and hourly rates used for work schedules and estimates, it enables accurate cost understanding, leading to appropriate price negotiations and differentiation from competitors. ★ We are currently offering a free booklet summarizing the scenes of IoT utilization by field, titled "IoT Idea Book." ▶ How to apply Please fill in "Request" in the "Contact" form with "I would like the IoT Idea Book." We will deliver it by mail.

Fukuda Co., Ltd. has been pursuing leak detection for 60 years and is committed 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 properties. We will propose the appropriate testers and devices for each inspection target. 【 Target Industries and Examples of Inspection Targets 】 - Automotive Industry: Engines, FC components, valves and piping, various parts - Electronic Components Industry: Smartphones, keyless switches, various small sensors - Pharmaceuticals / Food / Cosmetics Industry: Bottle containers, syringes, vials, eye drop containers, pillow packaging, PTP packaging We will propose the most suitable leak testers for each industry. 【 ISO Certification 】JIS Q 9001:2015 (ISO 9001:2015)

Japan is among the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of significant earthquakes occurring. For the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake measures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

The inspection targets of the "MSX-7003 series" are relatively large electronic devices. 【Inspection Targets】 - LED - Optical devices - High-frequency devices - Power semiconductors - IR sensors - Gyro sensors - Angular velocity sensors - Electrolytic capacitors, etc. The transport system is designed based on "pallet to pallet" to accommodate various types of work. The following three processes are performed automatically by the airtight inspection device: - Helium bombarding - Gross leak test - Fine leak test For packaged products smaller than 10 mm on each side, the work is set up using pallets or trays, followed by helium bombarding ↓ Then transported to the leak test process through high-speed handling ↓ Going through a continuous process from the gross leak test to the fine leak test ↓ And finally, discharged onto a pallet through high-speed handling. It also supports inline operations (the height of the pass line is 940 mm). Please watch the YouTube video from the link below.

In battery manufacturing lines, if components containing copper are used, there is a possibility that metal powder may mix in, dissolve, ionize, and pass through the separator, causing a malfunction that connects the positive and negative electrodes. Such minute metal powders may not be detected during pre-shipment inspections, and even if they are found, they can lead to various issues, such as the need to increase inspection processes to detect them. Therefore, Fukuda has developed a copper-free (all stainless steel) air leak tester that can be safely used in the production lines of battery manufacturers and secondary battery manufacturing equipment manufacturers. For product specifications and details, please refer to the "Related Product Information" and "Related Catalogs" below.

● This is a leak testing device for small electronic components that does not use fluorinated inert liquids (PFAS-free). ● There is no longer a need for unstable visual confirmation through liquid immersion testing. It adopts a quantitative testing method that allows for stable pressure leak testing. ● It is a tabletop leak testing device specifically for gross leaks, with accuracy equal to or greater than that of liquid immersion testing. ● The detectable range is approximately 1×10⁻² Pa·m³/s to 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (varies depending on the target product). ● It is suitable for sealed structures ranging from a few millimeters to a maximum of 80 × 70 mm.
