Case of discovering long-term shutdown of injection molding machines at night using Manufacturing Execution System (MES)!

■Recommended for the following individuals! - Customers in the automotive and plastics industries (processing, assembly, and manufacturing) - Medium to large enterprises ■Features Creating a roadmap for visualizing the manufacturing site and implementing MES is challenging. → With ProManage Cloud, you can start small with equipment monitoring and gradually introduce MES functionalities! Setting up IT infrastructure takes time and money. → ProManage Cloud is a cloud-based MES, so there are no costs for on-premise server installation or maintenance! There is a limited budget available for smart factory initiatives. → ProManage Cloud offers an affordable subscription price, and it can be implemented starting from just one piece of equipment on a monthly basis! Concerned about return on investment? → There are cases where ROI has been achieved in as little as one week after implementation. We recommend starting with a small scope for equipment visualization. Want to implement an MES from a reliable company? → ProManage has over 300 implementation cases, primarily in Europe. When implementing in Japan, our company will support you with MES utilization methods and language aspects. *Free dashboard demo currently available!

In civil engineering sites such as mountainous areas and construction sites, it may be necessary to use wooden boards on slopes or inclined access roads. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT, which can be laid not only on flat ground but also on sloped terrain. They can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery entry paths, and measures against muddy conditions, creating a driving environment that takes advantage of the unique surface characteristics of wood. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, which is a notable feature for maneuverability in narrow sites. This wooden board is registered as a technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS system as "TH-250021-A," and can also be utilized for safety measures and innovative ideas in public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" or "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 with heat. Repairs can be performed even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

● 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.
