This is a testing machine that reproduces the state in which thin paper, fibers, and films bend under their own weight to calculate the Clark's breakage (stiffness).

It reproduces the state when paper and fiber products bend under their own weight, automatically adjusts the protrusion length of the test specimen, and measures the critical length and stiffness.

• Other measuring instruments

This is a testing machine that evaluates the stiffness (rigidity) of materials such as cardboard.

It is a testing machine (Tebar hardness tester / Tebar stiffness tester) used to measure the hardness (stiffness) of relatively stiff samples such as cardboard.

• Other measuring instruments

This is a testing machine for measuring the viscosity of unvulcanized rubber and the scorch time of the rubber.

● The Mooney value is automatically calibrated with a built-in weight. ● You can register test conditions and pass/fail criteria. ● Test results can be output to a PC* (optional). ● You can recall past test results (up to 100 data). ● The heater timer function allows for time savings on start and end times. ● It is equipped with overload prevention and overheating prevention devices.

• Other measuring instruments

This is a vulcanization testing machine (rotorless rheometer/MDR) for evaluating the vulcanization characteristics of rubber. Fully automated testing is also possible with the optional sample automatic loading and unloading device.

● The sample chamber die can be selected in addition to the flat die specification, also in a conical die specification. ● By installing a sample automatic loading and unloading device* (pin type or film type) and a data processing device*, full automation (continuous testing of 84 samples) is possible. This contributes to labor-saving and efficiency in measurement tasks. (*Optional) ● By installing options for foam pressure measurement and tanδ measurement functions, more physical properties of rubber can be obtained. *The photo includes the sample automatic loading and unloading device (optional).

• Other measuring instruments

This is a low-temperature impact brittleness testing device (brittleness temperature testing device) used for low-temperature characteristic testing of rubber and plastics (cold resistance testing).

Rubber and plastic are immersed in a low-temperature liquid, struck with a hammer at a constant speed, and evaluated based on the occurrence of cracks. You can choose between the dry ice method or the refrigeration method.

• Other measuring instruments

This is a testing machine that applies impact to a plastic specimen and determines the impact value from the energy of the pendulum required for destruction.

● It features a digital display, eliminating errors from wear loss of the discard needle and reading errors by the operator. ● By replacing the hammer and specimen support base (fixed base), it can accommodate Charpy impact tests, Izod impact tests, and tensile impact tests. ● Easy operation with a color LCD touch panel. It can display and save the average, maximum, minimum, coefficient of variation, and standard deviation of impact values. ● Measurement data can be saved to a PC. (*Requires optional dedicated data processing software. PC is optional.) ● Hammer release* can be operated with a button. There is no individual variation during hook release, improving reproducibility. (*Optional) ● Instrumentation system* is selectable. (*Optional. Only for Charpy impact tests and in-basis tensile impact tests.) ● Positioning support base* is selectable. It allows for easy and accurate setting of the specimen. (*Optional for Charpy impact tests.) ● Various safety covers* (with or without a top) are selectable. (*Optional)

In recent years, while the size of residential spaces has been shrinking, there has been a growing demand from architects and designers for designs that "reduce lines as much as possible." However, designing spaces to appear clean and spacious by making door heights reach the ceiling or by minimizing the visibility of frames has posed challenges that require high skill levels from carpenters and significant construction time when attempted with conventional on-site construction methods. Against this backdrop, this year's Dretas has developed doors and storage fixtures that do not reveal frames, with the concept of "creating a noise-free space with empty space." ■ Base Frame (Fixtures) The structure hides the frame within the wall, achieving a refined design without the frame being visible from either side. It features a specially designed frame and concealed hinges that allow for 180-degree opening and closing. Frame widths (132mm, 147mm, 183mm) are set to accommodate wall thickness, eliminating the need for frame processing and supporting smooth installation. ■ Outset Frame (Storage Fixtures) The structure has the frame attached to the inside of the door, allowing the door and wall to fit flatly together. It can be configured for two or three panels, seamlessly blending even large wall storage into the space as if it were "just a wall." By using additional elements like the 3mm thick "Baseboard S-type," the installation becomes even more beautiful, enhancing the noise-free space.
