【Effects of Introducing ACAD-DENKI】 No more mistakes! Time has been reduced! We will introduce cases where improvements were successful and efficiency increased!

【Client】 Control Device, Power Distribution Board Manufacturer, Company A, Technical Department 【Background of ACAD-DENKI Introduction】 The client was considering updating their CAD system due to the aging of hardware, including servers. However, it became clear that the costs associated with hardware updates, such as OS and software version upgrades and the migration of customizations, would be significant, leading to a plan for a fundamental review. They compared and evaluated multiple electrical CAD systems, including ACAD-DENKI, while borrowing them for practical testing. The key points of consideration included the implementation of feasible functions for new initiatives, the extent to which current operations could be maintained without customization, and the responsiveness of the manufacturer and distributor. As a result of this evaluation, they decided to adopt ACAD-DENKI. 【Reasons for Choosing ACAD-DENKI】 ● It excelled in maintenance tasks such as attribute addition and system updates without relying on a standard package. ● They could perceive the potential for data utilization, expandability, and future prospects through attributes. ● Detailed settings were possible during drafting, which raised expectations for drafting efficiency. ● They appreciated the user-oriented approach in considering solutions for their requests.

Contributing to the reduction of mistakes and losses in design operations, pursuing cost reduction and cost-effectiveness of existing electrical CAD, and utilizing design data for subsequent processes.

Introduction of the case study for the electrical and control design CAD system "ACAD-DENKI" Mitsuba Electric Industry Co., Ltd. faced two major challenges: 1. Improving the quality of manufacturing drawings raised by the manufacturing department during the production design process. 2. Issues related to licensing costs. By implementing our developed and sold electrical design CAD "ACAD-DENKI," they achieved a reduction in design man-hours and enabled the utilization of data for subsequent processes such as procurement and manufacturing. Through repeated proof-of-concept experiments leveraging the 3D capabilities of the base CAD, BricsCAD, further data integration is being advanced. [Challenges before implementation] - Reducing mistakes and losses in design operations - Cost reduction of existing electrical CAD and pursuit of cost-effectiveness - Utilization of design data for subsequent processes *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I'm worried about not colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, particularly at entrances facing sidewalks or roadways, there is a risk of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "sensor" + "controller" + "switching power supply (24V)" + "LED rotating light." *Please note that a separate control panel is required to include the controller and switching power supply (24V) when using the exit warning system. *We kindly ask customers to arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breakers, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. We hope this will contribute to safer vehicle passage for everyone. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
