New machining center operational

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.

To the site managers and safety and health personnel working alone at night or on holidays: We are accepting inquiries for demonstrations and site evaluations of the camera-free monitoring sensor "MotionCatch." 【We welcome the following inquiries】 - I want to understand the status of workers during small-scale operations at night or on holidays. - There are times when I am alone during equipment inspections and maintenance work. - I would like to consider a system to reduce the burden of patrols. 【What MotionCatch can do】 - It non-contactly detects presence, absence, and prolonged absence using millimeter-wave radar and AI. - Notifications of detected information are sent to the manager's PC or smartphone. - No cameras or video recording are used, ensuring consideration for the privacy of workers. - Simply install it on walls or ceilings. No wiring work is required (USB power supply and Wi-Fi). - The detection range of one unit is approximately 6m x 4m, making it suitable for monitoring in "room units" such as break rooms, solo workrooms, etc. We envision installation not for the entire factory, but for individual rooms such as break rooms, overnight rooms, and solo workrooms. Please consult us to confirm the conditions of the installation location. *No video is recorded. This is a product designed to support monitoring and is not a medical device.

CLT is a wood panel that is laminated with the fiber direction oriented perpendicular to each other. It is a material often used for walls and floors in buildings, but the Hyper CLT panel utilizes its characteristics in civil engineering sites. It adds a new option of wood to places where steel plates have traditionally been used, such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. The 5×10 panel weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them relatively lightweight, which makes installation, removal, and relocation easier depending on site conditions. In addition to the unique texture of wood, it is easier to suppress summer glare, radiant heat, and metallic sounds during vehicle operation, contributing to environmental considerations. The Hyper CLT panel is registered as a technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A." It can also be incorporated into proposals for the use of new technologies and wood in public works. Wooden panels, NETIS, civil engineering, CLT, wooden lightweight panels. This is a new type of panel that expands the use of CLT, which was originally a building material, into the realm of civil engineering.

A-Open Japan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo) announced on November 2, 2026, the release of information about its new compact BOX system product 'DEV3755', equipped with NVIDIA Jetson Thor T5000/T4000. Despite its small BOX size, it is designed for humanoid and video analysis (VSS) applications, featuring a rich array of interfaces and flexible expandability to achieve real-time sensor fusion and ultra-low latency motion control required in robotics.

We will be exhibiting a "Technical Consultation Desk" for electrical measurement and processing technology at the "Iprosu AI Industry World 2026" held on December 9-10. Whether you have concerns about electrical measurement or parts processing, please feel free to consult with us. ■ What you can see at our booth: 1. Contact resistance measurement demo: Actual measurement of contact resistance by changing probes and workpieces. 2. High current conduction demo: Visualization of heat generation during conduction using a thermal camera. 3. Display of probe samples: From catalog items to special products. 4. Consultation on parts processing: You can discuss processing methods and feasibility based on your drawings. ■ Exhibition Overview Exhibition Name: Iprosu AI Industry World 2026 Dates: December 9 (Wednesday) and 10 (Thursday), 2026, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Venue: Tokyo International Forum Booth Number: B-54
