New Product Information: Manual Small Winch - New Pulley Drum Type in the Self-Locking Winch Series Now Available

This is a reduction device with a new self-locking mechanism (Shoji Lock) that replaces worm gear reducers. It includes a lineup of reduction gears, rack jacks, and winches.

Compared to conventional worm gear reducers, our compact design and high efficiency have received positive feedback. However, we also hear many voices expressing resistance or anxiety towards new products, as well as those who prefer to stick with traditional options. We encourage both those who are hesitant and those who love new things to take a look at our case studies and consider them. Conversely, we welcome valuable suggestions on potential applications as well!

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.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily visible at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*

The signing methods for electronic contracts (party type and witness type) are directly linked to the strength of their legal effectiveness. In this article, we will outline the reasons why the more stringent "party type" has been difficult to popularize until now. ---【Conclusion of this article】-------------------------------- • There are two signing methods for electronic contracts: "witness type" and "party type," which differ in the strictness of identity verification. • The main reasons why the party type has not spread are the three factors of "effort, cost, and the structural risk of entrusting a private key." • However, with the spread of public personal authentication (JPKI) using My Number cards, these three barriers are beginning to crumble. -------------------------------------------------------- The full text of the article can be accessed from the "Related Links."

Seven Corporation has started offering the "SeveNavi AI Cleaning Diagnosis Service," which supports the organization and improvement of cleaning challenges in manufacturing environments. Organizing cleaning challenges with AI and visualizing the next steps In manufacturing cleaning, various factors need to be considered, including the material of the object, type of dirt, adhesion state, currently used cleaning agents, working time, safety, and equipment conditions. On the other hand, there are also several challenges faced on-site, such as: - Unable to determine if the current cleaning method is appropriate - Wanting to reduce cleaning time and labor - Concerns about the safety of cleaning agents and their impact on materials - Wanting to compare with another cleaning method but unable to set test conditions - Not being able to utilize past cases and knowledge for improvement activities SeveNavi organizes information such as the object, dirt, current cleaning methods, and site photos using AI, clearly presenting the applicability of cleaning methods, points of caution, missing information, and how to proceed with comparative testing. If you have any challenges regarding reviewing current cleaning methods, comparing new cleaning methods, or reducing cleaning time and labor, please feel free to consult with us.

An online seminar will be held for design, purchasing, and DX promotion personnel considering the introduction or switch to new CAD systems, featuring the DWG-compatible 2D CAD "ARES." Participants can review content directly related to business improvement, including a comparison of features and performance with AutoCAD, automation using the CAD-specific AI "A3," automatic generation of DWG drawings from BIM data, and new ways of working in the cloud. ■ Date and Time: September 17, 2026 (Thursday) 13:30 - 15:00 ■ Format: Online (with archive viewing available) ■ Participation Fee: Free ■ Recommended for: - Those considering switching from AutoCAD - Those interested in AI utilization and automation in CAD operations - Those looking to streamline collaboration with BIM - Those seeking an environment where drawings can be edited regardless of location As a viewing benefit, a free "ARES Trinity Utilization Manual" (worth 6,000 yen) will be provided. Additionally, if you apply through the URL in the related links, our company, Keynos Logic, will consistently support you from post-seminar implementation considerations to estimates and support after operation begins.

On August 28, 2026 (Friday), I participated in the "AMD Embedded Computing Summit Tokyo 2026" and showcased a "Gesture Demo" as a partner of AMD. The demonstration introduced a configuration that combines gesture recognition using OpenCV, status reporting with LLM, and one-axis motor control using INtime 7.2 and RSI-ECAT, enabling collaboration between AI, image processing, and real-time control on a single PC. We presented a next-generation PC-based industrial control system that integrates AI, image processing, and real-time control on one PC. <Overview of Demo Participation> https://www.mnc.co.jp/INtime/AMDxINtime/AMDEcsTokyoResults.html <Actual Demo Video> https://youtu.be/JmZke75_y0s <AMD CPU + INtime RTOS Introduction Page> https://www.mnc.co.jp/INtime/AMDxINtime/amdxintime.html #PC #RealTimeOS #IndustrialPC #AI
