Introducing the "DIL806," capable of measuring thermal expansion rates without contact. It is an ideal tool for measuring amorphous and soft samples.

The DIL 806 optical dilatometer is a high-performance thermal expansion and contraction measurement device provided by TA Instruments. By adopting optical measurement principles, this device enables non-contact measurements that were difficult with conventional dilatometers. The DIL 806 uses an absolute measurement process that is not affected by the expansion or contraction of the testing apparatus itself, eliminating the need to correct measurement results for different temperature programs. This device irradiates a wide planar light onto the sample using high-performance LEDs and detects the shadow of the sample with a high-resolution CCD sensor. A digital edge detection processor evaluates this signal, accurately and sensitively measuring the dimensional changes of the sample in response to temperature variations. The DIL 806 is ideal for measuring materials such as metals and plastics, and thin samples can be easily analyzed using a dedicated sample holder. The furnace allows for rapid heating up to 100°C/min and rapid cooling from 1400°C to 50°C in under 10 minutes. This enables efficient analysis of dynamic processes and tests that include multiple temperature steps.

Introducing the "DIL802/802L," capable of high-precision dual sample measurement.

The DIL 803 is a dual-sample dilatometer that maximizes productivity by measuring two samples simultaneously. It can measure in vacuum or inert gas environments, while the DIL 803L is specialized for measurements in air. The horizontally arranged furnace ensures uniform temperature and eliminates the effects of air convection. A high-sensitivity LVDT is used to accurately measure even minute thermal expansion events.

This is an introduction to the "DIL802/802L," which is skilled in dynamic temperature programs used for shrinkage rate control sintering (RCS) and measurements in low-temperature regions.

The DIL 802 is a device that achieves true differential measurement, providing the highest measurement accuracy. By measuring only the difference between the sample and the reference material, it eliminates the effects of system expansion. This design is particularly beneficial for dynamic temperature programs and measurements at low temperatures. The DIL 802 is suitable for measurements in vacuum or inert gas, while the DIL 802L is specialized for measurements in air. The horizontally arranged furnace ensures temperature uniformity and eliminates the effects of air convection. A high-sensitivity LVDT is used to accurately measure even minute thermal expansion events.

• Analytical Equipment and Devices

Introducing the "DIL801," which allows measurements in air, vacuum, and inert gas purge, and the "DIL801L," which is ideal for evaluating the properties of ceramic materials.

The DIL 801 is an ideal device for measuring the thermal expansion of a single sample. It allows measurements in vacuum or inert gas environments, while the DIL 801L is specialized for measurements in air. This makes it suitable for evaluating the properties of ceramic materials. The horizontally arranged furnace ensures temperature uniformity and eliminates the effects of air convection. A high-sensitivity LVDT is used to accurately measure even minute thermal expansion events. Key features: - Measurement of linear dimensional changes over a wide temperature range - Capable of measurements in vacuum, inert gas, and air - Accurate displacement measurement with high-sensitivity LVDT - Ensures temperature uniformity with a horizontally arranged furnace - Compatible with various furnaces and easily interchangeable - Accurate temperature measurement with thermocouples or pyrometers - The measurement system can be composed of materials such as quartz glass, alumina, sapphire, graphite, and tungsten.

**Seminar Overview** The construction industry faces many challenges, including a shortage of personnel, regulations on maximum working hours, and the need for efficiency improvements. Additionally, the transmission of skills due to an aging workforce has become a significant issue, with a high turnover rate among younger employees who are supposed to carry on these skills. In this seminar, we will discuss the causes of turnover based on case studies and explain key points on how to reduce turnover rates by advancing IT integration.

**Seminar Overview** "Generative AI," which is gaining attention as a method for improving business efficiency and utilizing internal digital transformation (DX), can be influenced by the literacy of the employees using it, potentially increasing the burden of work instead. In this seminar, we will discuss the current challenges of generative AI while providing examples of how it can be used to enhance business efficiency. We will also explain how to utilize generative AI in a way that achieves efficiency without being dependent on the user's skills. We hope this will serve as a reference for considering the use of generative AI.

**Seminar Overview** The reality that young members leave their jobs due to miscommunication with their superiors occurs in every industry. This is also true in the construction industry. The long-standing issues of labor shortages, regulations on working hours, and the challenges of passing on skills due to an aging workforce are significant problems. However, the misalignment in communication with young employees, who are supposed to be receiving this knowledge, may actually worsen the situation. In this seminar, we will discuss the causes of communication gaps as seen through case studies, and talk about methods for skill transfer, knowledge accumulation, and smooth internal communication using IT tools.
