                Nippon Shimpo's drill used in the previous deep drilling of the Antarctic ice sheet

                Nippon Shinkan (Niiza City, Saitama Prefecture) has delivered high-precision aluminum tubes to the National Institute of Polar Research (NIPR) for their deep drilling of the Antarctic ice sheet. This is the first time in 17 years that Nippon Shintube has supplied aluminum tubes to the National Institute of Polar Research since 2002, when the company supplied them to the institute's 2003-2007 drilling project. According to the Polar Research Institute, the first drill is scheduled to be completed by the end of the year. In order not to collide with the rotary drill stored inside, a high degree of precision was achieved with a length of 5 meters and a bending accuracy of 0.3 mm or less. "There are no molds left. We had to redo everything, including the materials," said Takeo Kitazawa, general manager of the Technology Development Department, Safety & Environment Department, and Management Department.

                  Kaken Seiko's new transfer equipment

                  Kaken Seiko's new transfer equipment

                  Kaken Seiko (Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture) has developed a new type of compact, single-bar transfer device that can be retrofitted to press machines. The company will start offering the product at the end of July. The price will be determined in the future. The company aims to sell 1,060 units a year. Three types of KTES series single-bar transfer machines will be available. The KTES series already uses the same method, but this time it uses linear servo motors. Depending on the stroke of each axis and the angle of motion assignment, the number of shots of the press machine can be increased from 50 to 75 per minute, which increases productivity. The manufacturer of the press machine to install this equipment is not required. First, we will introduce the 1200 mm wide x 1350 mm deep minimum x 180 mm high type. We will sequentially offer different types for different sizes of presses. Photo taken on June 6, 2019, location unknown, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images
