Product page release! 【Low cost, safe! IoT based on edge computing】

IoT specialized for factories! A robust system upgraded mainly with industrial PCs.

Factories have diverse environments, such as oil smoke and vibrations. IoT for the manufacturing industry requires performance that can continue to operate robustly even under such conditions. The PCs used in "Factory Guardian" are manufactured by Advantech Co., Ltd., which has a proven track record in industrial PCs. Other network devices and sensors are designed and packaged with the assumption of being used in factories. For manufacturing factories, we offer IoT packages from Yamashina. To solve such questions and challenges: ● In environments with vibrations and oil smoke, electronic devices are likely to fail quickly. ● We want to use reliable equipment even in small and medium-sized manufacturing companies. All of the above challenges are addressed by Yamashina's "Factory Guardian." *For more details, please refer to the PDF or contact us.

Would you like to see the hard-to-imagine IoT in action at an actual usage site (a screw factory)?

The IoT package system "Factory Guardian" is an IoT system developed based on a model of a screw manufacturing factory and is sold by Yamashina. In response to the customer's challenge of "Even if we talk about IoT in factories, there are no actual items, and it's hard to understand," Yamashina is holding tours of the IoT system "Factory Guardian," which is operational in its own factory. We believe that the methods for acquiring information from actual devices, wiring, communication, PC systems, and the ways to display data obtained from information will serve as a reference for the introduction of IoT in manufacturing factories. To solve such challenges... ● We are considering the introduction of an IoT system in the factory but want to see something that is actually operational. ● We want to hear firsthand accounts of the challenges before implementation and the benefits after implementation. Please feel free to consider visiting our IoT system. *For details, please refer to the PDF or contact us. *We may decline visits to "Factory Guardian" from individuals in the screw industry.

We won't engage in unnecessary communication! Let's keep security measures for connecting to the cloud simple!

"Factory Guardian" adopts edge computing. Information within the factory is accumulated on servers set up on the internal network as much as possible and is managed without being exposed externally. Additionally, when using the cloud, communication occurs only from a specific few devices. Therefore, compared to the method of communicating with the cloud from each device in the target factory, communication costs can be significantly reduced. This also makes implementing security measures easier. It is a low-cost and secure IoT package utilizing edge computing! To solve such challenges and questions... ● Continuously collect operational information from factory machinery using IoT, communicate data from the machines, and upload it to the cloud? ⇒ Will this incur significant communication costs from the target devices... ⇒ I'm worried about security measures when connecting to the cloud... All of the above issues are resolved by Yamashina's "Factory Guardian." *For details, please refer to the PDF or contact us.

The "HM-S6" is an embedded park sensor that detects vehicles through changes in magnetic flux and can respond to various situations from passing to stationary. It can be used for the opening and closing of the input doors at waste treatment plants, as well as for gates where vehicles pass and in outdoor parking applications. It can also be installed on rebar and steel plates. 【Features】 - Resistant to the effects of natural environments such as rain, snow, temperature changes, and geomagnetism. - Protection rating IP68 reduces the risk of water ingress. - Ten times the load capacity compared to conventional embedded park sensors (according to our comparison). - Can distinguish between vehicles even when they pass continuously, one by one. - Can be installed on rebar and steel plates. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

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