        Main part of the vacuum furnace at Okaya Heat Treatment Industry

        Okaya Heat Treatment Industry (Okaya City, Nagano Prefecture) has invested about 60 million yen to installa medium-sized atom nitriding system manufactured by Plasma Research Institute (Tenpaku Ward, Nagoya City). When hardening the surface of high-speed steel (HSS), etc., this equipment can perform surface nitriding treatment uniformly even on objects with complicated shapes, with almost no secondary compounds in the diffusion layer of nitrogen atoms. Mr. Takizawa, president of Okaya Heat Treatment Industry, said, "In order to stably apply hard coatings on tools, etc., further secondary processing is necessary, but such technology is also being established. In the future, the company plans to expand its business to include the hard coating base treatment of cemented carbide tools and high durability surface treatment of blades.

          Forest Sea's long-range wireless terminal "Geochat".

          Forest Sea (Koto-ku, Tokyo) will launch a long-range wireless terminal called "Geochat" this fall to prevent mountain climbers and forestry workers from getting lost. It is capable of two-way communication of up to 200 kilometers in a clear environment with no obstacles. Even when cell phones are out of range, such as in mountainous areas, workers can carry the terminal to send location information and emergency requests. The company is aiming for sales of more than 5 billion yen in the communication terminal business in five years. 920 megahertz (mega means one million) band radio waves with an output of 250 milliwatts will be transmitted over a long distance. It can reach more than 200 kilometers in a clear environment. Three repeaters were able to cover the mountainous area of Hakone, sending text of about 30 characters and location information from the Global Positioning System (GPS).
