High-speed camera shooting is possible! A drop weight impact testing machine that easily synchronizes video and load signals.

The "9400 Series" is a drop weight impact testing machine that can be used not only for punching but also for compression, three-point bending, and tensile-tensile impact tests. As the use of thermoplastics, composites, and metal alloys as high-performance materials for weight reduction in automotive, aerospace, and defense applications increases, the need to streamline the product development process and confirm the consistency between simulations and test results is extremely important. The weight is adjusted to maintain a constant strain rate and speed as much as possible throughout the elongation of the specimen during the impact event. 【Features】 ■ Capable of measuring high strain rates at impact speeds of up to 22 m/s ■ Tensile impact fixture test temperature range: -50 to +120°C (standard piezo sensor) ■ Transparent panels are placed around the test area, allowing for high-speed camera recording ■ Easy synchronization of video and load signals ■ DIC analysis to evaluate the longitudinal strain of the specimen after impact in a tensile impact condition *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Measuring the residual strength of composite laminates after damage! Introducing the CAI test procedure!

The "Post-Impact Compression (CAI) Test" is a two-step test developed to evaluate the potential damage of composite laminate materials using test specimens. In the first step, a drop-weight impact testing machine is used to apply visible impact damage (BVID) to the test specimen. In the second step, a static universal material testing machine is used to conduct a compression test on the damaged specimen, measuring the residual strength of the composite laminate after sustaining impact damage. Instron's "drop-weight impact testing machine" is used for the development, fine-tuning, and validation of various material models. Please feel free to contact us if you need assistance. 【Features】 ■ Impact energy from 2J to 70J (and beyond) ■ Minimum mass: 1kg (specimen thickness: 4.0mm or less) ■ Safety enclosure to prevent carbon fiber dispersion ■ Specimens can be adjusted from -70℃ to +300℃ ■ Pneumatic double-strike prevention mechanism to prevent multiple impacts on the specimen *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Yours sincerely, [Official Site] https://aee.expo-info.jsae.or.jp/en/yokohama/ [DATES] Wednesday, May 27, through Friday, May 29, 2026 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. [VENUE] PACIFICO Yokohama, Exhibition Hall, Booth No. ２７４ ※Online Exposition Website：Tuesday, May 19, through Tuesday, June 9, 2026

Daiamet Co., Ltd. will exhibit at the "Automotive Technology Exhibition 2026 YOKOHAMA," held at Pacifico Yokohama from May 27 (Wednesday) to 29 (Friday), showcasing the "sintered spur gear for EV cooling modules using high-density heat treatment materials," which is mounted on the cooling module for BEVs (Battery Electric Vehicles) that won the Japan Powder Metallurgy Association's 2025 Industrial Association Award (New Product Design Category). This product is a spur gear used in the valve for switching the flow path of the cooling module for BEVs. By combining sintered materials with unique heat treatment technology, it achieves both high strength and high airtightness, addressing the issues of strength and wear resistance that were challenges with resin gears. Additionally, to tackle the airtightness issues caused by the pores inherent in sintered parts, high airtightness has been secured by optimizing the steam treatment conditions, enabling mass production. This technology is expected to see further adoption as the BEV cooling module market expands. At the venue, we will introduce a wide range of our products and technologies, including the newly exhibited sintered spur gear for EV cooling modules, cores for servo motors, various motor cores, transformers for DC-DC converters, sintered mechanical parts, and sintered oil-impregnated bearings.

The first step in DX is essential understanding and penetration into the field. While improving meter reading operations and addressing human error, we will introduce hints for achieving paperless and digital management. Last year marked the year when all members of the baby boomer generation became late-stage elderly, aged 75 and older. In industries that rely heavily on human labor, such as maintenance, this situation is serious, with indications that by 2030, more than 30% of equipment may not be maintainable. The issue of labor shortages in an aging workforce is becoming an imminent crisis, making the realization of DX in the field an urgent necessity. In this seminar, based on customer cases using the meter reading app "hakaru.ai by GMO," we will introduce hints on how to advance the DX of inspection management operations from the perspectives of building management and equipment management in manufacturing. 【Recommended for the following individuals】 - Those struggling with promoting DX in equipment management - Those feeling challenges in meter reading for equipment management or production management - Those considering advancing paperless and digitalization - Management personnel and equipment maintenance staff who want to promote DX.
