[Exhibition Information] We will be exhibiting at 'POWTEX 2024 (25th International Powder Technology Exhibition Tokyo)'.

A cost-effective remote monitoring system for resin compound companies. It aggregates data scattered throughout the factory and visualizes operational status!

Kubota's compound line monitoring system not only incorporates information from feeders but also from extruders and peripheral equipment, enabling comprehensive display of equipment operating conditions and rapid data analysis during abnormalities, contributing to productivity improvement through remote monitoring. It promotes the visualization of customers' factories through phased implementation into their facilities. This system is ideal for customers facing issues such as "not noticing alarms from equipment," "wanting to identify the cause of defective products," and "manually recording measurement data on-site"! 【CraftPat Neo Launch】 - Compatible with multiple OS and browsers, allowing monitoring from smartphones and tablets (in a Wi-Fi environment). - Multi-window and multi-display capabilities enable dashboard-like usage, such as displaying graphs side by side. - Enhanced grade management features further streamline grade management. 【Exhibition Information】 We will be exhibiting at "POWTEX 2024 (25th International Powder Industry Exhibition Tokyo)." Dates: November 27 (Wednesday) to 29 (Friday), 2024 Venue: Tokyo Big Sight https://www.powtex.com/tokyo/

Three unique structures to achieve stable supply of raw materials! You can choose according to your needs, such as flow rate and hopper capacity, dual-axis/single-axis screws, etc.

<NEW> The flow range of large machines has further expanded with the minor change! The 'NX Feeder' can stably supply various powders and granules such as pellets, fiberglass, pigments, carbon black, and titanium oxide with just one feeder. While excelling in disassembly and cleaning, it is equipped with three innovative unique structures that fundamentally prevent causes of supply irregularities such as bridging and rat holes! It also accommodates highly cohesive powders. 【Three Unique Structures】 　■ Diagonal agitator structure (prevents unnecessary movement of materials) 　■ Inverted tapered chute structure (improves bridging resistance) 　■ Dense filling structure (ensures stable discharge of materials and achieves high supply accuracy)

Next-generation feeder control system aimed at the smart factory era.

The WF series inherits the basic performance of conventional control systems while evolving its scalability through network connectivity. It is a new standard control system that realizes Kubota's vision of a future production site centered around informatization. 【Features】 - Realizes IoT for compound production processes with Ethernet connectivity - Allows for the start of feeder operation without cumbersome settings or adjustments - Prevents the occurrence of defective products and prevents the outflow of defective lots in the event of any defects - Helps prevent sudden line stops and contributes to minimizing downtime

Reduce raw material leakage to the outside and contribute to improving the environment in the manufacturing site and enhancing the working conditions!

Compared to conventional fabric air vents, it reduces the amount of raw material leakage to the outside and suppresses filter clogging by performing backwashing with air during raw material input. **Features** - Reduces site contamination caused by leaked raw materials, improving the environment and working conditions. - Reduces waste of raw materials, minimizing the loss of valuable raw materials due to discharge and disposal. - Contributes to improved supply stability by preventing abnormal feeding during raw material replenishment.

Weight feeder specialized for raw materials with low fluidity.

This is a weight-type feeder specialized for raw materials with poor fluidity, such as fibers. Unlike general feeders, which struggle to accommodate long fibers or irregularly sized fibers that do not easily enter the screw, this feeder can fill the screw thanks to its specially designed discharge mechanism, enabling stable supply. It is also suitable for raw materials that tend to cause supply issues, such as film and plastic scrap. **Features** - Flexible response to long fibers and irregularly sized fibers - Stable supply of materials even for those that tend to tangle - Ideal for a wide range of raw materials, including fiber-based materials, films, and plastics

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.

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.

What do the members of the back office department consider when choosing or replacing a system? If the same product is handled by both a "manufacturer" and a "distributor," how do you feel about it? "Distributor"? Isn't it cheaper to buy directly from the manufacturer? It's obvious that receiving direct service is better, right? ...Is that really the case? In the materials we are releasing this time, we will explain the benefits of "introducing a distributor." Here’s a preview of the materials: 【If you’re going to choose, you should leverage the power of a distributor that handles the ○○ system!】 【Make the distributor your ○○○○○○○ and use them to the fullest!】 Along with these points, we are offering a "Distributor Evaluation Checklist" that will be your strong ally, free of charge! Please make good use of it.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I am worried about the possibility of colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as pedestrian collisions and vehicle-to-vehicle accidents. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures at various sites and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *When using the exit warning system, we kindly ask that you arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breaker, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. [Contents Included] ○ Exit Warning System Configuration ○ Comparison Table of Exit Warning Sensors ○ Four Modes ○ Wide Range of Applications ○ Customer Feedback ○ Appearance Diagram / Specifications ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
