This spring, a product briefing for the new digital ultrasonic flaw detector UI-29, which began sales, was held on March 19 at the Mitsubishi Electric Kamakura Training Center in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, for sales agents. This event was featured in the April 5th issue of Inspection Equipment News published by Sanpo Publishing. With the kind permission of Sanpo Publishing, we are pleased to share the article. The article can be downloaded and viewed from the related materials.

The latest model UI-29 of the digital ultrasonic flaw detector from Rydian Shonan Electronics will be released this spring. We have uploaded the latest information about this developed product, so please take a look.

We have uploaded a technical introduction video of the direct axial force control system that enables fastening control through axial force. This technology has been developed in collaboration with Honda Motor Co., Ltd. In mass production, bolt fastening has relied on torque or angle methods, but we have developed a new technology that allows fastening at the required bolt axial force while directly measuring the axial force. This technology enables bolt fastening with reduced axial force variation in the mass production process. It is expected to be used in various fields and applications. We have also set up a demonstration unit at our factory. If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to contact us through the form.

The Easy Checker for ultrasonic flaw detectors, sold by the Japan Inspection Equipment Manufacturers Association, is a very convenient tool for easily checking ultrasonic flaw detectors. Our company has also participated as a member since the development planning stage. We would like to take this opportunity to inform more people about this tool, which can be used for regular checks.

We have compiled a set of necessary components for those who will challenge the JSNDI UT practical exam or conduct a renewal exam, specifically for practical exam practice. Customers who purchase the set will receive a dedicated vertical probe, an angled probe, and probe cables as complimentary items. Additionally, it is possible to combine this with various campaigns being conducted during this period. For details regarding the set price estimate, order forms, and other specifics, please consult individually with your affiliated retailer. We encourage you to consider this advantageous opportunity for implementation.

This is an inline device that can easily measure the thickness of pipes (steel pipes, resin tubes, etc.) non-destructively using the ultrasonic echo method. It can measure the thickness of materials during transport and detect and record abnormalities such as upper and lower limits of wall thickness and uneven thickness with high precision. It also supports unit replacement for ultrasonic flaw detection systems from other companies (including overseas manufacturers). Customers facing issues with aging updates or those looking to establish a new line are welcome to consult with us.

We developed a direct axial force tightening device that integrates an ultrasonic bolt axial force gauge and a bolt tightening device, and we reported it in the news. We have also added a video of the direct axial force tightening situation to the Ipros product information. Please take a look. Video Composition: In the prototype system, the nut runner is made by ESTIC, and the ultrasonic bolt axial force gauge is a custom model UI-27AF manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric Shonan Electronics. The bolts used are engine bolts produced by Saga Iron Works. (Direct Bolt Axial Force Tightening System) During bolt fastening, the axial force applied to the bolt is measured from seating to tightening using a uniquely developed ultrasonic sensor and axial force measurement unit. The measurement is converted to axial force based on ultrasonic propagation time, and fastening is performed at the set axial force value. This technology is expected to be utilized as a method to suppress variations in bolt fastening axial force and achieve stabilization. *The system introduced is a development technology by three companies: Honda R&D, Saga Iron Works, and Mitsubishi Electric Shonan Electronics.

This is a technology for detecting water that has infiltrated steel structures using ultrasonic waves. By applying ultrasonic sensors from the outside without opening the interior, it is possible to detect even minute amounts of water infiltration. Traditional techniques have struggled to measure conditions where there is a certain amount of water infiltration and the wavefront is not horizontal. This technology is expected to be utilized for developing solutions to these challenges. Use Cases: - Inspection of water infiltration conditions due to cracks in bridge steel deck slabs (screening) - Inspection of water infiltration in circuit breakers for power transmission lines (inspection while live) *This technology is a joint development by the Public Works Research Institute, Mitsubishi Electric, and Hishiden Shonan Electronics. Additionally, the circuit breaker water infiltration inspection device is a product developed by Tokyo Electric Power Company Power Grid, Mitsubishi Electric, and Hishiden Shonan Electronics.
