Are you making progress on measures for the "2024 Problem"? The management of drivers' working hours is becoming stricter, and in the logistics field, reducing "waiting time for loading" has become an urgent issue. To address this challenge, our company, Hotron, proposes the "Vehicle Detection Ultrasonic Sensor 'HM-UX2'," which instantly grasps the availability of loading bays. The 'HM-UX2' contributes to the resolution of waiting times by accurately understanding the availability status, reducing unnecessary waiting and queuing, and shortening waiting times, thereby alleviating the burden on drivers! By replacing the "eyes" of your loading bay management with this high-precision sensor, why not start taking measures against the "2024 Problem"? Take a look at the product features: "Can it accurately detect availability?" "Can we really use it in our company?" "I just want to know the cost, even if it's an estimate." If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to consult us first.

As a result of the conformity assessment audit of the Information Security Management System (ISMS), which is a management system standard, it has been proven that we comply with the requirements set forth by ISO/IEC, and the following audit registration certificate has been issued: JIP-ISMS517-1.0 (ISO/IEC 27017:2015) Scope of Application * Cloud Service Provider: Provision of "CaaS Cloud" This is based on the general information security standard ISO 27001 (ISMS) and includes additional management measures to address threats and risks specific to cloud services.

The non-contact beam touch sensor "HA-T401/HA-T520" has a compact detection range, making it an ideal automatic door sensor for installation on automatic doors facing narrow corridors or busy streets. Depending on the application and installation location, you can choose between "non-vision mounting type" and "non-vision built-in type." 【Features】 ● With the beam touch sensor, you can open and close the automatic door simply by bringing your hand close without touching it, ensuring hygiene. ● Depending on the installation environment, such as single sliding or bi-parting doors, the detection range can be set in four configurations: left, center, right, and a total of 12 spots. ● Two types of activation row settings are available to reduce unnecessary opening and closing of the automatic door due to cross traffic, contributing to energy-saving effects. ● The touch switch and infrared sensor are integrated, allowing for a switch between beam touch and infrared sensor with a single model. 【Recommended for such locations!】 ☑ Entrance facing a busy corridor ☑ Counter or sign near the door ☑ Buildings facing narrow corridors ☑ Buildings that prioritize aesthetics ☑ Hospitals and facilities that consider hygiene ☑ Large facilities with many doors ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
