Tensile test

Testing service for plastic films using a universal testing machine (autograph) in a heated environment!

The "tensile test" measures the load and displacement (elongation) of a material when it is pulled at a constant speed, in order to determine the material's physical and mechanical properties. By pulling the test specimen in a temperature-controlled chamber, it is possible to assess and understand the temperature dependence of these properties. Our company is capable of conducting material property tests under temperature conditions. We can also propose conditions tailored to the materials and properties you wish to measure. Please feel free to consult with us. 【Test Machine Specifications】 ■ Temperature range of the temperature-controlled chamber: -40 to 250℃ ■ Load cell: 50kN, 1kN ■ Load accuracy: ±1% of the load indication value ■ Test speed: 0.0005 to 1000 mm/min ■ Travel distance ・Tensile test section: 1485 mm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Useful for quality control over the years! Ultra-micro hardness measurement of materials such as metals, polymers, and ceramics.

Our "Ultra-Micro Hardness Measurement for Material Evaluation" allows for the ultra-micro hardness measurement of materials such as metals, polymers, plastics, and ceramics. Additionally, since hardness can be quantified, it is also useful for long-term quality control. The hardness is determined by directly reading the depth of the indentation while applying a load to the indenter. It is also possible to determine characteristic values related to recovery behavior. 【Device Overview】 ■ Test force range: 0.4mN to 1000mN, Accuracy: ±0.02mN ■ Indentation range: 1nm (0.01μm) to 700μm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Leave it to us for everything from chemical analysis and physical testing to reliability testing! Introduction to our measurement and evaluation services.

Plastic extrusion/injection molding processing is set according to the heat resistance temperature (melting point Tm) of the raw materials; however, due to the degradation and alteration of the materials, there are cases where molding becomes difficult at the specified setting temperature. By checking the melt flow rate (MFR) of plastic raw materials in pellet or powder form, it is possible to determine whether there are any changes compared to conventional products. We present a case where untreated (no load), temperature and humidity load (constant temperature and humidity test), and UV-irradiated PP (polypropylene) were injected and evaluated at a temperature of 230°C and a load of 5kg, so please take a look at the PDF download. [Evaluation Case] ■PP: Polypropylene ■8585: 85°C 85% × 336 hours ■UV: UV irradiation 253.7nm × 336 hours ■Injection time: 10 minutes (converted from 3 minutes) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Essential materials alongside metals and inorganic materials! Introducing examples of analysis and evaluation services for organic materials.

Organic materials such as solvents, additives, pharmaceuticals, and plastics are essential materials alongside metals and inorganic materials. They have a wide variety of types due to the combination of light elements, and their specificity is manifested through structure, intermolecular forces, and electron behavior. However, it seems that chemical instrumentation analysis and evaluation are necessary for a fundamental understanding of their properties. This document presents case studies of analysis and evaluation services for organic materials.

The molecular weight of resins such as plastics is not a single value but is composed of multiple molecular weights. By understanding this molecular weight and its distribution, it leads to a better understanding of the mechanisms and theories related to the properties and degradation of resins. In this document, we will introduce a case study where we measured polypropylene resin (PP) samples with and without ultraviolet (UV) irradiation using a high-temperature GPC device suitable for measuring polyolefin-based materials that are difficult to dissolve in solvents at room temperature, and conducted data analysis. We encourage you to read it. 【Contents】 ■ Configuration and principles of high-temperature SEC ■ Analysis case: Molecular weight measurement of PP subjected to UV irradiation ■ Application examples ■ Specifications and considerations for high-temperature SEC *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"Somewhat inconvenient" can quickly transform into "cost" and "risk" due to an increase in the number of employees or an expansion of business scope. What we are introducing this time is the process of a home care industry company with around 700 employees verbalizing their frustrations regarding payroll operations and considering the optimal system configuration. When we verbalize "somewhat inconvenient"... 1) The support quality of the payroll system being used is poor, causing significant stress. 2) The number of employees has been on the rise in recent years, raising concerns about running costs due to the pay-per-use system. 3) Macros are being used for data integration with a separate system. 4) We want to make backend processes like payroll payment reports easier. Information from iBP What is important here is to decide how to handle the multiple issues that have arisen, which is the "prioritization of tasks."

We have released an introduction document for our cloud management system "Loglass." This document clearly presents the features and usage images of "Loglass," which streamlines management tasks such as budget formulation, performance management, forecast updates, and management accounting. Loglass centralizes data scattered across various systems and spreadsheets, reducing the effort required for collection, aggregation, and analysis, thereby supporting quicker and more accurate management decisions. Additionally, it helps address challenges such as the personalization of management tasks and increased workload through automation of data aggregation, history management, and real-time analysis functions. The document also includes actual implementation examples and the effects of implementation, showcasing results such as reduced workload, enhanced analysis capabilities, and improved decision-making speed. Companies considering promoting DX in management or reviewing operations centered around Excel and spreadsheets are encouraged to take a look.

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.

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.

Caught up in daily data entry, approvals, and inquiries, I want to improve but can't find the time to consider it. Such voices from the field are not uncommon. Even though it's clear that systemization is necessary, the reality is that people often get stuck on where to start and which products to choose. Common frustrations include "I spent time requesting materials and demos, but I'm not sure if it fits my company," and "After implementation, the inquiry contacts are scattered among different manufacturers, making it hard to connect quickly when issues arise." This moves us further away from the original goals of efficiency and reducing dependency on individuals. This is where the option of "agent implementation" comes into focus. Agents that handle products from multiple manufacturers have the advantage of providing unbiased comparisons and neutral proposals without favoring specific products. Even within the same category of systems, they can present the pros and cons side by side for a balanced evaluation. There is also a common misconception regarding pricing; in most cases, there is little to no price difference between direct sales from manufacturers and agents.
