Processing accuracy that allows for the omission of post-processing, exceeding the target! A case that demonstrates the value of collaboration between AI and humans!

In power semiconductors like GaN, even the slightest roughness on the nanometer scale (one-millionth of a millimeter) can affect performance, making crystal processing after creating the cylinder essential in traditional methods. To find appropriate experimental conditions, at least two sets of conditions must be tested for each factor just to observe trends. Therefore, for five factors, a minimum of 32 experiments is required. Based on those trends, dozens of experimental conditions are tested to find the combination of factors that leads to the desired results. As a result, traditional optimization methods centered on experiments required a significant number of trials. In contrast, the approach taken by Aicrystal, which learns from results, explores, and suggests conditions, was able to reduce the number of experiments to just 19. Moreover, this approach achieved a level of processing precision that allowed for the omission of subsequent processes, and the benefits of not needing additional capital investment are significant. The conditions deemed appropriate in this case were combinations that had never been tried by engineers, illustrating the value of collaboration between AI and humans. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Significantly reduce calculation time! Introducing case studies of process informatics!

"GaN (gallium nitride)" is a power semiconductor that is expected to be adopted as a power source for 5G base stations. It is commonly used as a thin sliced disk wafer, but the initial manufacturing state is cylindrical. The GaN cylinder emits gas, which serves as the raw material for GaN, from holes at the bottom, allowing the crystals to grow. In reality, there are over 100 holes, leading to infinite combinations. When simulating this, it takes an astonishing 6 hours for just one condition. If you run 1000 variations, it consumes 6000 hours, which equals 250 days, taking a significant amount of time. This is where "Process Informatics" from AICrystal comes into play. By training AI with the results of 1000 randomly generated simulations, the calculation time is drastically reduced. The time required is just 1 second per condition. Thanks to the significant reduction in calculation time enabled by AI, it is now possible to compute 10,000 conditions in just about 3 hours. This optimization allows for the gas conditions and hole arrangements to be fine-tuned, successfully tripling the growth rate. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

PERI products are used at construction sites around the world. This time, we would like to introduce the construction work of the "Dunajec Road Bridge" spanning the Dunajec River in the town of Nowy Targ in southern Poland. The road bridge was planned to be constructed using a balanced cantilever method, dividing the cantilever beams starting from each pier into 10 segments. A particular concern was to strictly adhere to the concrete pouring cycle for each segment. To achieve this, a balanced cantilever carriage (VBC) equipped with a hydraulic advance system and an automatic formwork stripping function was adopted. By utilizing the VBC, it became possible to pour concrete for segments up to a maximum length of 5 meters in a single cycle, allowing for efficient and timely construction. PERI products: 1. TRIO Panel Formwork 2. VARIO GT24 Wall Formwork 3. PERI UP Flex Modular Scaffold 4. VST Heavy-Duty Shoring Tower PERI Japan Co., Ltd.

At a major purchasing specialty store located in Kanagawa Prefecture, we have introduced our commercial aroma diffuser rental service "MajestaFragrance," enhancing the store's atmosphere with fragrance. Installed models: MFmini (4,400 yen per month) × 2 units Adopted fragrance: Freesia Pear To ensure that customers visiting the store can relax during their appraisal and consultation time, we have implemented space branding with a "refined and approachable scent." The fragrance used is "Freesia Pear," which pleasantly spreads the freshness of fruity pear and the vibrant aroma of freesia. It warmly welcomes customers with a clean and high-quality scent. The "MFmini" introduced this time is a compact yet powerful diffuser known for its strong diffusion capabilities. It blends smartly into limited installation spaces such as reception counters and customer service areas, efficiently delivering fragrance. At Majesta Fragrance, we offer optimal diffuser models and fragrance suggestions tailored to the size of the store, type of business, and interior atmosphere. A "free trial installation" is also available before signing a contract.

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.*
