[Product Example] ■E-Call (Telematics Emergency Call) "V550HRA" → An optimal secondary battery for e-call → Capacity of 550mAh, excellent high-temperature durability supporting a discharge temperature range of -30 to +85°C For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

• Batteries and Capacitors

Button-shaped nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries with a track record of shipments primarily for backup applications in medical devices, industrial equipment, and automotive equipment.

Nickel-metal hydride batteries may be considered outdated with the advent of lithium-ion batteries. However, they have advantages compared to lithium-ion batteries in terms of safety and simpler peripheral circuit configurations. In particular, for backup applications, they are optimal batteries because they allow for trickle charging. Additionally, they have advantages in terms of obtaining safety standards and air transport, making them worth considering as a main power source if size permits. If you are interested in nickel-metal hydride batteries, please feel free to consult us.

• Batteries and Capacitors

The commercial alkaline battery series has been released from Faltamicrobattery. It is a series of five types of alkaline batteries.

In the European market, there are standard consumer-oriented VARTA batteries, but a new VARTA INDUSTRIAL PRO series has been released for industrial use. Compared to the consumer versions, the capacity and shelf life have been extended. The packaging design has also been revamped, and we proudly introduce this reliable Made in Germany product. Exceptional performance, long operating time, safety, and reliability are key considerations for applications. Through extensive global experience, VARTA meets the needs of our customers. We believe this can be considered for various projects, not just for embedded use.

• Batteries and Capacitors

Applications for extruding liquids, gels, and pastes using hydrogen gas pressure (automatic feeding, air fresheners, etc.). Applications for analytical devices utilizing high-purity hydrogen.

A button-type cell that generates hydrogen gas. It does not require an external power source and produces high-purity hydrogen. The amount of hydrogen generated is proportional to the discharge current (inversely proportional to the load resistance), and it can be used as an actuator based on hydrogen gas pressure for a wide range of temperatures, including applications for extruding liquids, gels, and pastes (such as oil dispensers), automatic feeding, air fresheners, and more. Additionally, there are expectations for future medical applications, such as drug delivery systems. Furthermore, high-purity hydrogen can also be used for the calibration of analytical instruments. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.*

• Batteries and Capacitors

A comprehensive battery manufacturer in Germany that has been around for 135 years.

VARTA provides power solutions for various applications, ranging from button batteries for small devices that fit inside the ear, to batteries for consumer devices, commercial equipment, electric vehicles (EVs), home energy storage systems, and industrial energy storage systems.

We are pleased to announce that Gywood has been recommended as a featured building material in the special project "Recommended Building Materials" at the Housing Business Fair within the comprehensive exhibition for housing, architecture, and real estate [BREX Kansai]. We will be exhibiting in the "Recommended Building Materials and Equipment" zone, where professionals from the field gather to showcase their recommended materials. We invite everyone to stop by and visit us.

Seminar Overview As the labor shortage in manufacturing sites becomes more severe, the labor costs and time losses associated with the "transportation" of products and components, as well as "cleaning" within factories, have become critical management issues that cannot be overlooked. In this webinar, we will introduce the latest use cases of "Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR)" and "Commercial Cleaning Robots" that achieve productivity improvements in manufacturing environments. We will specifically address questions such as "How are other companies operating these technologies?" and "What kind of cost reduction effects can be expected after implementation?" by providing concrete explanations of actual before-and-after scenarios and operational flows. Factory managers and members of production technology and DX promotion departments who want to advance automation and efficiency on-site are encouraged to participate! Recommended for: - Those who are unsure about where to start with automation, labor reduction, and DX in their factories. - Those who want to alleviate labor shortages on-site and focus resources on core operations to improve productivity. - Those who want to stay updated on the latest trends in the use of transportation robots (AMR) and cleaning robots.
