Case Study: Gained trust from clients through reduced delivery times and improved quality with the introduction of AutoForm!

You can proceed with the operation step by step throughout the entire process!

"AutoForm-DieDesigner" is software that allows for the rapid creation of alternative designs for die faces throughout the entire press forming process. Once the die face design is created, it can be used for process simulation with AutoForm-FormingSolver. The results can be evaluated with AutoForm-Explorer. By fully integrating die face design with simulation and result evaluation, it enables the quick assessment of multiple alternative process and mold concepts, as well as the selection of optimal concepts regarding formability, quality, and cost. 【Features】 ■ Creation of concept die faces ■ Evaluation of multiple process concept alternatives through direct integration with process simulation ■ Deep understanding and verification of the entire process design 【Main Functions】 ■ Creation of parameterized die face shapes for all processes ■ Creation of excess material based on customized profiles ■ Automatic unfolding of flanges on excess material surfaces ■ Modeling of shapes using morphing technology

It brings deep understanding and transparency to the molding process from the early engineering stages.

"AutoForm-Sigma" is software that enables the analysis of press-formed parts and processes, as well as the improvement of robustness. It is possible to identify which design parameters affect the quality of parts and to what extent. Additionally, if issues arise during trials or production, it supports the identification of corrective actions. Furthermore, it can also identify ineffective corrective measures and appropriate means that lead to problem resolution. 【Features】 ■ Analytical process improvement ■ Stability and reliability of the forming process ■ Robust manufacturing processes ■ Minimization of defective formed parts ■ Minimization of correction loops and associated costs 【Main Functions】 ■ Automatic variation of design parameters ■ Verification of key design parameters ■ Assessment of noise and variation range of process parameters ■ Evaluation of process capability ■ Automatic execution of multiple simulations *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Since multiple areas can be defined within the mold, the expected correction can be controlled analytically.

The "AutoForm-Compensator" is software that automatically adjusts the die surface based on accurate springback calculations or measured springback data. When the user defines the anticipated correction area, that area is automatically corrected based on the springback calculation results. Using the anticipated correction shape, rapid and accurate die verification can be performed. 【Features】 ■ Reliability in process planning and process engineering ■ Reduction of correction loops ■ No risk of corrections in subsequent processes due to springback 【Main Functions】 ■ User-defined anticipated correction areas ■ Support for free springback and springback fixed by clamps ■ Automatic adjustment of die shapes *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

On September 15, 2026, we issued a press release regarding the wooden lightweight sheet "Hyper CLT Sheet." The Hyper CLT Sheet is a civil engineering sheet that utilizes CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) stacked in an orthogonal direction. It can be used in various locations such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas. The 5×10 version weighs approximately 230 kg, making it relatively lightweight and easy to install, remove, and relocate. Additionally, it offers environmental benefits such as reducing glare and metallic sounds typical of wood, as well as CO2 fixation. Furthermore, it can be proposed for the use of new technologies in public works as a **registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism "TH-250021-A."** Through this press release, we aim to expand the new wooden lightweight sheet that combines wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT to more construction sites.

● The production time for cast 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 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! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

The "HA-T Series" is an energy-saving automatic door sensor that opens only for those who wish to enter, whether on a busy street or in a narrow passageway. The automatic door opens simply by bringing your hand close, addressing hygiene concerns even in facilities used by a large number of people. You can choose between "Non-vision Mount Type/HA-T401" and "Non-vision Built-in Type/HA-T520" depending on the application and installation location. 【Recommended for such places!】 ☑ Entrance facing a busy corridor ☑ Presence of counters or signs near the door ☑ Buildings facing narrow passages ☑ Buildings that prioritize aesthetics ☑ Hospitals and facilities that consider hygiene ☑ Large facilities with many doors 【Features】 ● Adaptable to various door types with four detection spot settings ● Reduces unnecessary opening and closing, contributing to energy-saving by minimizing wasteful power consumption ● Equipped with a light touch function, allowing the door to open and close just by waving your hand, ensuring hygiene ● Can also be used as a wide detection range non-vision infrared sensor ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods often change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which constantly carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be carried out even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.
