We have released a video of the mecanum robot that can move in all directions, has self-position control, and can follow people!

【AGV Automatic Guided Vehicle】No tape required, recognizes and follows humans. Achieves omnidirectional movement with wheels instead of using a bipedal walking mechanism.

Reliable technology supporting omnidirectional movement mechanisms We offer custom solutions tailored to customer specifications. 【Core Technology】 Tosa Electronics has integrated an engine that centrally controls the errors and behavioral discrepancies that occur during omnidirectional movement onto a single circuit board. This allows for stable movement within the robot without placing a burden on the upper-level control system issuing the control commands. ■ What is omnidirectional movement? Mecanum wheels are covered by barrels that are tilted at a 45-degree angle to the axle. In addition to the same movements as conventional wheels, the free-moving barrels on the circumference allow for movement in the 45-degree direction. By adjusting the rotation direction and speed control of the four motors, omnidirectional movement is achieved. ■ Case Studies - Adopted for transport carts in automotive and electronic component factories - Can be used as both a cart and a workbench since it can move while carrying work equipment *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

● This is a leak testing device for small electronic components that does not use fluorinated inert liquids (PFAS-free). ● There is no longer a need for unstable visual confirmation through liquid immersion testing. It adopts a quantitative testing method that allows for stable pressure leak testing. ● It is a tabletop leak testing device specifically for gross leaks, with accuracy equal to or greater than that of liquid immersion testing. ● The detectable range is approximately 1×10⁻² Pa·m³/s to 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (varies depending on the target product). ● It is suitable for sealed structures ranging from a few millimeters to a maximum of 80 × 70 mm. Please feel free to contact us for more information!

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly creating 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! Different products, such as similar shapes or variations in dimensions, can be created in a single molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

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 affecting the base material with heat. 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.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. Many implementation examples are also presented, so please take a look at the case study page.
