The hyper CLT sheets come in two sizes: 5×10 and 5×20. Key points for selection include the size of the site, the installation location, the heavy machinery used, and the frequency of replacement. The 5×10 sheet measures approximately 1.5m × 3m and weighs about 230kg. It is easy to handle even with small machinery, making it suitable for sites where partial installation is desired, such as worker pathways, around rest areas, material yards, and temporary parking lots. A 10-ton truck can carry up to 40 sheets, which also enhances transportation efficiency. On the other hand, the 5×20 sheet measures approximately 1.5m × 6m and weighs about 460kg. It can cover a large area with a single sheet, making it suitable for long access roads, temporary roads, and spacious heavy machinery work yards. It is also characterized by its ability to reduce seams. In some cases, combining both sizes can be an effective approach. The hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering CLT materials utilizing wood and are registered with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under the NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." Choosing the right size according to site conditions can enhance workability and usability.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding methods for repairs can change 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 Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repairs 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 made even 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 or download the catalog.

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.
