Opening up the material behavior under high-temperature stress of MAX1400℃ through in-situ micro-observation [CATY-T3H]

Real-time visualization of tensile and compressive behavior at ultra-high temperatures. In-situ observation enhances the accuracy and speed of high-temperature material development. Using an IR imaging furnace, it is possible to apply tensile or compressive loads while microscopically observing the surface state of the sample at high temperatures. This unique device allows for real-time observation of material behavior under high temperatures and stress. It is compact in size and can be used in various installation locations. 【Features】 - Dual swing crosshead: The specimen can be adjusted to a visible position. - Capable of high-speed heating up to 1400°C (depending on the shape and thermal capacity of the sample). - Flexible atmosphere: Vacuum chamber structure allows for stress measurement, low-cycle fatigue testing, and creep testing in gas flow or vacuum. - Realization of combined testing for thermal fatigue under stress and in-situ observation. 【Strongly supporting research and development of heat-resistant materials】 Experimental examples: Melting and solidification of metals and glass / Microstructural changes in metals / Sintering of ceramics, etc. Target materials: Metals / Semiconductors / Ceramics / Glass / Inorganic materials / Carbon, etc. *For more details, please refer to the materials.

At construction sites, temporary parking lots may be established for workers and construction-related vehicles. On unpaved ground, mud and ruts can easily occur due to rain, which may hinder vehicle access. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. By laying them in temporary parking lots, a suitable environment for vehicle passage and parking can be created while protecting the ground. They can be laid only in the necessary areas, and after the construction is completed, they can be removed and repurposed for temporary roads or access routes. The 5×10 panels weigh approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panels weigh about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, allowing for changes in parking space. Additionally, they offer benefits unique to wood, such as glare reduction, noise reduction, and CO2 fixation. They are registered as a technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A," and can be utilized for the development of temporary parking lots and innovative public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply 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 made even 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 or download the catalog.
