Released the latest selection guide for MTS sensors, 2012 edition.

Resolution of 0.5μm, response speed of 10kHz, absolute linear scale.

Temposonics offers excellent non-contact absolute displacement sensors using magnetostrictive technology, which serve as alternatives to traditional linear potentiometers, linear encoders, and rotary encoders. This absolute position sensor is an ideal solution for monitoring and controlling machines that perform hydraulic, pneumatic, and electromechanical positioning. Additionally, the sensor head is equipped with a uniquely developed high-performance LSI, enabling not only position detection but also the detection of movement speed, thus providing a complete operational profile of the machine. With a single sensor, it is possible to compare a user-defined target value with the actual position and measure the position of up to 30 locations simultaneously. Many other features are also included. Due to these characteristics, it is adopted in various applications such as industrial equipment, robotics, welding, medical devices, and wind and wave power generation.

Japan is one of the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of major earthquakes occurring. Regarding the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake countermeasures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

Do you have any concerns or requests regarding wired bed exit sensors? × Tangling or tripping over wired cables × Cable disconnection or damage × Worrying about forgetting to turn the switch back on after temporarily stopping the sensor. × Wanting to be notified of bed exits even from a location far from the nurse call outlet. Such concerns can be resolved simply by connecting our wireless nurse call linked set to the sensor! Our wireless nurse call linked set allows you to connect bed exit sensors like "Ugo-kun," "Foldable Thin Matta-kun," "Ayumi-chan," and "Just Place Pole-kun" to transmitters and receivers, reducing wiring around the bed area, alleviating concerns about tripping or falling due to cables, and contributing to a tidier work environment. Furthermore, it enables the use of bed exit sensors even from locations far from the nurse call outlet, allowing for more flexible equipment placement.

Kort Valuta has released a workplace initiative model that leverages points exchangeable for electronic money to support the adoption of safety and wellness habits. Examples include: ・Hydration reporting ・Viewing heatstroke prevention content ・Pre-shift condition checks ・Voice-based condition checks By linking these activities to incentive points, organizations can encourage voluntary participation while supporting workplace safety and employee well-being. The model is designed not only for frontline environments such as: ・Logistics ・Construction ・Manufacturing but also for office-based health and well-being programs. Safety posters and reminders alone are often not enough to drive lasting behavioral change. We hope this initiative provides a practical example for organizations seeking new approaches to workplace safety and employee engagement.
