[Case Study] Expansion of Floor Seismic Isolation Devices

basic information

Since it can be laid directly on existing floors to reduce shaking, it is proposed for factories and warehouses. The Musolator is a seismic isolation system developed by Ideal Brain (headquartered in Tokyo). By placing a special resin steel plate on a stainless steel plate with fine protrusions, it suppresses shaking during vibrations. It can be installed even in existing buildings, and partial installations such as shelves are also possible, which helps to reduce the introduction costs.

Toei Electric has been selling at its Tokyo branch for eight years and started handling products at its Chubu branch two years ago. Initially, it operated as a sales agent, but recently it has established a system to carry out installations tailored to customer needs. In the metropolitan area, there is high demand from data centers, museums, and medical institutions. On the other hand, the Chubu region, with its concentration of manufacturing industries, has been assessed to have a high demand for seismic isolation in factories and warehouses. Focusing on the Chubu branch, the company has decided to embark on comprehensive proposals. It is considered optimal for factories in the manufacturing sector, which often undergo layout changes. Takao Umemura, the branch manager of the Chubu branch, stated, "We are exhibiting the Musolator at trade shows to promote it, and inquiries are increasing. It is a seismic isolation device that can be installed according to customer needs, and we are actively developing orders."
