What is environmentally friendly concrete? It is a building material that significantly reduces carbon dioxide emissions during production by replacing the raw material cement with materials that have a lower energy burden during manufacturing, such as blast furnace slag. Therefore, in Japan's construction industry, the idea of utilizing environmentally friendly concrete is spreading as a means to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. About polished floors Polished floors are a method of finishing concrete to create a floor surface. The polished surface reflects light, brightening the space. Additionally, it is characterized by minimal deterioration from peeling or wear, making it easy to clean. Furthermore, by using special dyes during the construction process, it is possible to add color to the floor surface. This allows for the possibility of painting logos on parts of the floor or turning the entire floor into a work of art. Showcasing environmentally friendly concrete with polished floors Environmentally friendly concrete can be polished just like regular concrete. Instead of covering the surface with paint or flooring materials, the efforts to reduce CO2 can be made visible through polished floors. This makes it an easily understandable expression for visitors and stakeholders.

Shin-Etsu Industrial Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, President: Jun Nagai) will exhibit at the "2022 International Robot Exhibition - iREX2022 -" held at Tokyo Big Sight from March 9 (Wednesday) to March 12 (Saturday), 2022. This exhibition is known as the "world's largest robot specialty exhibition," showcasing the latest technologies and related products from domestic and international robot manufacturers and related companies. We will display the 6-axis force sensor "ZYXer" and robot systems utilizing ZYXer. We will introduce the usage and benefits of the 6-axis force sensor, which is gaining attention as an essential tool for automation, through our exhibit. Proposals for automating delicate tasks and further improving precision and quality will also be showcased, so please come and experience it. ■ Overview of the 2022 International Robot Exhibition - iREX2022 - Dates: March 9 (Wednesday) to March 12 (Saturday), 2022, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Venue: Tokyo Big Sight Official website: https://biz.nikkan.co.jp/eve/irex/ Our booth location: East Hall 5, E5-21

Shin-Toh Industrial Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, President: Jun Nagai) has developed a new application called "Insertion of Flexible Printed Circuit Boards" that utilizes the 6-axis force sensor "ZYXer" to achieve high performance in industrial robots. Flexible printed circuit boards are electronic components that have been widely used in smartphones and various mobile devices in recent years, characterized by being "thin, soft, and light." However, the task of inserting flexible printed circuit boards into different connectors requires very delicate force adjustments, making automation using robots challenging. By utilizing our ZYXer, it can accurately detect even small forces and ensure reliable insertion, contributing to the automation of wiring tasks by robots. 【Three Features of the New Application】 1. Achieves load discrimination of just "0.5g" 2. Control is possible through high-speed communication with a communication speed of "0.83msec" 3. Minimal disturbance effects, eliminating the need for filtering

Shin-Etsu Industrial Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, President Jun Nagai) will start selling the "Hollow Model" of the 6-axis force sensor "ZYXer" from March 1, as a new lineup to enhance the wiring flexibility of industrial robots. ■ "Hollow Model" - Reducing the risk of malfunctions by routing cables to the robot's interior The ZYXer Hollow Model developed by our company features a through hole for wiring at the center of the sensor body, made possible by the adoption of a special detection method. The advantage of the hollow structure is that it allows cables connected to the robot's tip to be routed inside the robot. This increases the flexibility of robot wiring according to the working environment. Additionally, it not only makes the appearance more streamlined but also helps reduce the risk of load changes that occur during wiring to the robot arm (external).

Shin-Etsu Industrial Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, President Jun Nagai) will start selling the 6-axis force sensor "ZYXer" along with the "Offline Teaching Software ZYXerPath" that enables force control on March 9. "Offline Teaching" is a teaching method that differs from conventional robot teaching tasks, utilizing 3D CAD software to create the robot's trajectory and teach it movements on the software. If 3D CAD modeling data is available, it is expected to reduce the time required for teaching tasks. By using our uniquely developed "Double Output Model" force sensor that outputs to two systems, one output of force data is used for robot control, while the other is utilized for control along the contours of the actual processing target, allowing for high-precision teaching tasks that take into account individual differences and slight misalignments during installation. By utilizing ZYXerPath, there is no longer a need to go to the site for fine adjustments. Additionally, even complex movements can be taught to the robot entirely on 3D data, eliminating location constraints and supporting the rapid digitalization of manufacturing sites.
