Members of the Extreme Environment Robotics Research Institute have received the "2026 Robotics and Mechatronics Division ROBOMECH Award (Industrial and Practical Field)" from the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers.

Bringing unprecedented robots into practical use and contributing to problem-solving in extreme environments.

The Extreme Environment Robot Research Institute (HERO Lab) is an organization aimed at the research and development of decommissioning robots that can operate in environments where humans cannot enter, such as the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Founded in 2020, it is led by Professor Shigeo Hirose, an honorary professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology and the first recipient of the Pioneer in Robotics and Automation Award from the IEEE Robotics & Automation Society, under the auspices of the Hakusan Industrial Group of Tokyo Electric Power Company. We aim to solve significantly difficult and diverse problems that no one in the world has yet found solutions for, contributing to society through creative robot development. *For more details, please check the related links below or contact us.*

In civil engineering sites, temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas use ground boards. Hyper CLT ground boards are civil engineering CLT materials that utilize wood CLT and can be widely introduced as an alternative to steel plates on various sites. There are concerns that "wooden ground boards may lack durability," but they are designed for repeated use on-site and for heavy machinery traffic. Even in sites where large machinery passes, their use can be considered after confirming ground conditions, contact pressure, installation methods, and usage locations. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. The unique properties of wood also help in reducing glare, noise, and environmental impact, making them effective for innovative public works projects. Recommended for companies looking for a new type of ground board that balances durability and workability, registered as a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." We also support consultations on selecting specifications and installation methods tailored to site conditions, and can provide proposals for both public works and private civil engineering projects. Please consider using them for reviewing temporary roads and work yards that utilize heavy machinery. Feel free to contact us for material requests or consultation on implementation. They are also useful for safety measures on-site. We look forward to your inquiries.

The Hino Smart Cabinet provided by Nichinichi Shimizu Machinery Co., Ltd. is a material management solution that allows for the management of factory tools and consumables like a vending machine. This system automates inventory management and ordering processes, preventing the risk of production stoppages due to stockouts and significantly reducing the burden of inventory tasks. The cabinet comes in various types, such as drawer-type and spiral-type, allowing for the proper storage of drills, measuring instruments, protective gear, and more according to their intended use. Furthermore, the history management function through user authentication accurately tracks "who took out what and when," contributing to loss prevention and cost reduction. Operating 24/7 with no maintenance required, it is introduced as an efficient tool to promote the digital transformation (DX) of factories.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where temporary roads, access routes, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways use plywood. Hyper CLT plywood is a civil engineering material that utilizes wood CLT and can be used as a substitute for steel plates in a wide range of civil engineering sites. Since it can be purchased in small lots, it is easy to introduce it only in necessary areas, such as parts of the site, heavy machinery entrances, and pedestrian pathways. This allows for the adoption of the material without a large investment while confirming the usability and effectiveness of wooden plywood. The 5×10 panel weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. The unique properties of wood help suppress glare, reduce noise, and promote environmental considerations, making it suitable for creative innovations in public works. Additionally, by replacing only a part of the site with wooden plywood, it can also enhance the landscape and the company's image. It is recommended as a new plywood selection for civil engineering sites, registered as a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." The appeal also lies in the ability to start small and consider full-scale implementation while observing the effects. We can flexibly respond to inquiries about the number of units sold and usage locations. We also accept requests for materials and consultations for implementation. Individual proposals tailored to site conditions are also possible.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods often change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which constantly carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "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 at all. Repairs can be carried out even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.
