AGC's solar power generation glass has been adopted at Takanawa Gateway Station.

This is solar power generation glass (BIPV) that contributes to decarbonization (CO2 reduction). It can generate electricity in various glass areas of buildings (such as windows).

This product can generate electricity from various glass components of buildings (such as windows) and contributes to decarbonization (CO2 reduction). It is particularly effective in situations where solar panels cannot be installed on the roof. (It can be utilized in facades, skylights, louvers, handrails, walls, etc.) Additionally, it can be used without issues in snow-prone areas due to its vertical installation. It contributes to the carbon neutrality of companies and municipalities and the realization of Zero Energy Buildings (ZEB)! There are also cases eligible for subsidies besides ZEB. We can provide one-stop consultation, including equipment, through the AGC Group, so please feel free to contact us if you are interested. 【Features】 - The grid-like arrangement of cells creates a unique space with light and shadow. - Light passes through the gaps between cells and surrounding areas, achieving a balanced lighting and shading effect. - Various installation methods are possible, including frameless options, ensuring design flexibility for creating open spaces. - Leveraging technology cultivated from building glass, we supply large reinforced or heat-treated glass modules with a consistent responsibility system up to installation. - The modules are highly durable and have a long lifespan. - With abundant design and construction capabilities for openings, we ensure a reliable power generation system.

Achieving transparency while ensuring free customization using single crystal cells.

"Sanjuu SUDARE" is a new product of the glass-integrated solar panel "Sanjuu," which uses glass on both sides. By utilizing monocrystalline solar cells, it achieves transparency while maintaining power generation efficiency. Its appearance evokes the image of traditional Japanese sunshades and matches well with Japanese-style architecture. As a custom-made product, it can be tailored to suit various scales. 【Features】 ■ High Transparency ■ Even when installed on windows or roofs, it offers a clear view from the inside. ■ High Light Transmission ■ It provides shade without becoming too dark, effectively fulfilling its function as glass. ■ High Design Quality ■ With an appearance reminiscent of sunshades, it is also recommended for use in window areas (vision areas). *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out 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. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model production is not required, the time needed to create prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! With one molding process, different products with similar shapes or varying dimensions can be molded at the same time. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

In the field of collaborative robots, there is a demand for reduced startup labor, energy efficiency, and safe yet flexible handling performance. In particular, reliance on compressed air systems and complex wiring and piping can pose challenges during installation and operation. Piab's "piCOBOT Electric for ABB GoFa" is a plug-and-play electric vacuum gripper solution optimized specifically for ABB GoFa. Its all-electric design generates vacuum using only electricity, eliminating the need for compressed air. This enables the creation of a clean, quiet, and energy-efficient collaborative robot cell. Furthermore, by adopting ABB GoFa-specific software plugins, designated cables, and standard ISO machine interfaces, smooth integration into the ABB control environment is possible. This supports rapid startup and stable operation. Read the article here: https://www.piab.com/ja-jp/news/piab-launches-picobot-electric-for-abb-gofa

We have added the DL material "Explained in Manga! Let's Prevent Technical Information Leakage to the Outside with CrackProof Software Protection!" to the DNP Hypertech site. In the manufacturing industry, there is a growing awareness of measures against the leakage of technical information. Many companies seem to have already established sufficient rules and measures for information protection when exchanging data with external parties. However, when it comes to cases where in-house software suffers from cracking (unauthorized analysis and tampering) and information leaks occur, the current measures are still not adequate. We have explained the measures against technical information leakage through software protection in an easy-to-understand manga format. Please take a look.
