Cleaning the coolant tank that used to take a whole day is now done in just 10 minutes! Improving cleaning efficiency and reducing unpleasant odors contribute to environmental improvement!

The automobile manufacturer Company I had three people working almost a full day to clean the coolant tanks of machine tools, and this had become the norm (standard operation). Therefore, we introduced the 'APDQO-F'. It allows one person to perform the task, and the working time was remarkably improved to about 10 minutes. Additionally, for machine tools that were difficult to manage, we had been outsourcing the work, which incurred costs. However, after the introduction, we were able to perform the work in-house, leading to cost reductions. [Solution] ■ APDQO-FF Non-woven fabric filter type for drum cans - Replaceable non-woven fabric, disposable type ■ APDQO-FS SUS filter type for drum cans - The filter is made of stainless steel, allowing for repeated use *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Cutting fluids for machine tools can be reused! Tank cleaning time is drastically reduced!

**APDQO Series** APDQO-FF100 (Non-woven Fabric Filter) APDQO-FS100 (Stainless Steel Filter) APDQO-FB100 (Bag Filter) ◎ Does not use electricity ◎ Automatically stops when full ◎ Equipped with a safety valve as standard **Benefits** ● Enables reuse of cutting fluid ● Improves tool life ● Safe due to air drive with no electric leakage ● Cleaning time as short as 5 minutes **Features** ● Designed specifically for JIS standard 200L open drums ● Capable of separating cutting fluid and chips ● Safety valve and float included as standard **Applications** The air-operated tank cleaning filtration cleaner APDQO-F series is capable of cleaning tanks of machine tools, as well as filtering and separating 'liquids' and 'solids'. Therefore, in addition to filtering chips and sludge from machine tools, it can be used in the following ways: ● Cleaning machine tool tanks (removing chips and sludge and reusing cutting fluid) ● Separating and sorting food waste in food processing plants (restaurants) ● Separating water and sludge from mountains and rivers ● Separating and sorting waste and sewage

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. We have many implementation examples available, so please take a look at the case study page.

iPick Co., Ltd., a partition manufacturer, will explain the definition of non-combustible materials under the Building Standards Act and their importance in office interiors. Fire-resistant materials are classified into three categories: non-combustible, quasi-non-combustible, and flame-retardant, based on safety during a fire. At iPick, we handle aluminum partitions that have received non-combustible certification, demonstrating high fire resistance, which is required by "interior restrictions" depending on the size and use of the building. Selecting appropriate materials is crucial not only for protecting the lives of employees but also from the perspective of asset protection and business continuity planning (BCP). We propose the creation of safe spaces that balance compliance with regulations and design. ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ For the design and construction of interior partitions from offices to toilet booths, leave it to iPick, the partition specialist manufacturer!
