AI in Material Testing: A Place Where Data, Algorithms, and Expertise Converge

One machine can perform Brinell, Vickers, Rockwell, Knoop, and Jominy tests.

For individual inquiries, please visit https://www.zwickroell.com/en/contact/. Japanese input is available, and we do not conduct commissioned testing. The DuraVision series hardness testers have the following features: - Fully automatic testing machine that automatically determines the test points after setting the specimen. - Specimens can be tested in their original shape if they are parts, in addition to cut test pieces like reference blocks. - The clamping force that holds the specimen is strong enough to prevent slipping, even when the specimen is coated with cutting oil during processing. - The testing method changes depending on the test range, but you can switch between Brinell, Vickers, Micro Vickers, Rockwell, Knoop, and Jominy tests with the push of a button. - In Europe, there are practical applications where it is used in processing lines to measure surface hardness after surface treatment and then proceed to the next process.

Testing machine for hole expansion tests of GPa-class high-strength steel plates with crack detection function.

Regardless of whether it is an internal combustion engine, EV, HEV, PHEV, or FC, the lightweighting of automotive body steel sheets has become an eternal theme in advancing the lightweighting of automobiles. To achieve lightweighting, the use of high-strength steel sheets raises the issue of poor workability, which automotive OEMs and Tier-1 companies are addressing through research to improve formability. As the strength of high-tensile steel sheets reaches GPa levels, existing formability testing machines are insufficient in capacity. We introduce a 1000 kN class formability testing machine (for hole expansion tests, deep drawing tests, Erichsen tests, etc.) as a solution to this problem.

[Speaker] Ministry of Defense, Maintenance Planning Bureau, Cyber Maintenance Division, Director Shinpei Ara [Key Lecture Content] From peacetime to emergencies, information and communication infrastructure is the foundation for both the lives of citizens and the activities of the Self-Defense Forces. The Ministry of Defense and the Self-Defense Forces are advancing the construction of a "New Defense Information and Communication Infrastructure (tentative name)" utilizing next-generation information and communication technologies, based on the "Ministry of Defense Next-Generation Information and Communication Strategy," to respond to "new ways of fighting" backed by advanced technologies. Additionally, ensuring cybersecurity for this information and communication infrastructure is essential for the activities of the Self-Defense Forces. The Ministry of Defense and the Self-Defense Forces are working to improve their own cybersecurity while also contributing to the overall strengthening of the country's cybersecurity. In this lecture, I will explain the outline of these initiatives and the direction for the future. [Lecture Items] 1. Security Environment (New Ways of Fighting) 2. Information and Communication 3. Cyber 4. Q&A / Business Card Exchange *The program may change according to the latest situation.

Our company will be exhibiting at the "39th Okinawa Prefectural Pharmacists Association Academic Conference." We sincerely look forward to your visit.

This session is aimed at engineers in the manufacturing industry, focusing on data utilization, and will explain practical approaches to factor exploration and predictive model building using JMP products. Analysis does not yield optimal results in one go; it is important to enhance accuracy through repeated trial and error in data preparation and model building. In particular, the quality of data preparation, such as preprocessing and feature creation, significantly influences the results, and JMP allows for efficient progress while visualizing the process. Using publicly available data for model building, we will introduce a series of processes from preparation, including visualization, preprocessing, and feature creation, to factor exploration through correlation and regression analysis, predictive model building (such as neural networks and random forests), and extraction of important factors, all through trial and error. Program: 1) What to do before the model: Key points of data preparation and trial & error using JMP 2) How to proceed with factor exploration and predictive model building without making it a black box ▼Details & Registration https://www.jmp.com/ja/events/live-webinars/non-series/2026/12-15-factor-exploration
