Iprosu exclusive "New self-locking mechanism equipped" small manual winch stainless steel type demo unit rental begins.

A stainless steel type of winch with a self-locking feature that can hold the load even when the operator's hands are off, has been introduced with a compact, lightweight, and sleek design.

The compact and lightweight winch "S-Winch," which incorporates the already well-received new self-locking mechanism (Shoji-Lock), is now available in a rust-resistant stainless steel type. Due to high demand for clean room compatibility, we have prepared a model with a maximum rope pulling force of 50 kgf. It achieves a compact and lightweight design with a sleek appearance, allowing for space-saving solutions. It can rotate in both forward and reverse directions and locks in place when stopped. It can be widely used for disaster prevention and energy-saving measures without the need for a power supply. Additionally, since it is not a ratchet type, it can be used in various locations and operates very quietly, making it suitable for nighttime work and hospitals. Being made entirely of stainless steel, it is also suitable for use in clean rooms, as well as in marine and ship-related applications.

On Monday, September 22, the Japan Meteorological Agency announced its three-month forecast for October to December. Due to the continued influence of conditions similar to the La Niña phenomenon until around December, the westerly winds are expected to flow more to the north than usual from October to early November, making it likely that warm air will cover the entire country. From late November to December, the westerly winds are expected to meander southward near Japan, and there may be periods when the winter pressure pattern strengthens. In December, the region is likely to be affected by cold air, and temperatures in western and eastern Japan are expected to be around or lower than the average for the season.
