An article about the construction of the Tamkang Bridge (Taiwan) was published in the Daily Timber Newspaper on March 4, 2026!

A stable and flexible scaffolding bracket system for one-sided and two-sided climbing formwork operations.

The "PERI SCS Climbing System" Single-Sided is a climbing-type bracket system primarily used for one-sided construction, meaning it is used in situations where separators are not employed. Common applications include dams, sluice gates, cooling towers, bunkers, main towers, tunnels, and liquid-tight embankments. The brackets are also suitable for forming fixed wall formwork. Additionally, with the addition of minimal components, it can also accommodate two-sided construction. In the SCS Climbing System, two bracket units and one wall formwork section are integrated to form a crane-movable platform (climbing unit). The components that make up the climbing unit are designed according to a modular concept, maximizing the use of common components to form multiple climbing units. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

A construction kit system for various projects requiring self-elevating technology.

The "PERI ACS Automatic Climbing System" is an integrated climbing system that functions as a self-climbing work scaffold and a large formwork panel system. 【Product Features】 ■ It is possible to climb with an integrated system of work scaffold and large formwork. ■ It uses hydraulic cylinders (rising approximately 4 to 6 meters in about 20 minutes per batch). ■ Climbing is possible on both the outer and hollow sides of bridge piers. ■ Formwork can be safely and easily constructed and stripped on the main stage. ■ By placing the formwork on a carriage that can move back and forth on the stage, construction and stripping work for each concrete pouring batch can be performed safely and efficiently. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We offer custom formwork manufacturing services made to order using CNC machines.

In bridge construction, high-precision formwork is essential to achieve large-scale and complex-shaped structures. Particularly in projects that require intricate shapes or special dimensions, traditional formwork may be difficult to accommodate. Low-precision formwork can lead to a decline in the quality of the structure and delays in the construction schedule. PERI's custom formwork manufacturing service utilizes CNC machines to provide custom formwork that meets all customer requirements. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Architectural projects requiring high precision - Structures with complex shapes - Formwork requiring special dimensions 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Realization of high-precision structures - Shortened construction time - Cost reduction (Achievements) Custom formwork manufactured at our Ibaraki stockyard, along with PERI products, was used in the construction of the main pylon of the Tamkang Bridge in the Tamsui District of New Taipei City, Taiwan. It was produced with high precision in Japan, transported to the overseas site, and assembled on-site for use. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.

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.*

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

This time, I would like to talk a little about current measurement in the switching evaluation of power semiconductors (including power devices and power modules).

From measurement instruments to point cloud processing and analysis software, the latest solutions come together! We propose numerous cutting-edge technologies and products that solve on-site challenges in a one-stop manner. It's not just about seeing; it's about experiencing, consulting, and bringing it back to the field. At the venue, we will showcase the latest measurement instruments and solutions, including 3D laser scanners, handheld 3D scanners, LiDAR drones, and 3DGS (Gaussian Splatting). Additionally, we will announce surprise new products!

We have updated the article on the website of the semi-custom system construction "Select Beam." When planning factories, logistics warehouses, and stores, "system construction" has become an effective means of achieving cost reduction and shortening construction periods. The rationality of system construction through thorough standardization is very high, and it is adopted in many projects. However, due to the differing characteristics of each manufacturer, many business owners find themselves wondering, "Which manufacturer is suitable for our plans?" and "Is it really optimal compared to conventional methods?" In this article, we will compare and introduce the basic knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of system construction, as well as recommend manufacturers by purpose in a ranking format. ■ Semi-Custom System Construction "Select Beam" This is a unique method by Sakura Structure, and it is a "third option" that is less expensive than system construction. It is the most suitable method for low-rise long-span buildings such as stores, warehouses, factories, and logistics facilities, as well as high-rise buildings like hotels.
