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

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.

Daihatsu's new platform with DNGA

Daihatsu's new platform with DNGA

Newly developed zero-based lightweight photosynthetic platform. In order to maximize the performance of handling stability and ride comfort, the suspension arrangement was designed with the highest priority, and the body frame was optimally arranged to significantly improve collision safety, NV performance, and body strength. Bending rigidity has been increased by 30% compared to the previous model, and the entire body frame, including the platform, has been lightened by approximately 40 kg through the use of high-tensile materials and structural rationalization. The new Tanto was unveiled at the Tokyo Prince Hotel on July 9, 2019. Credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images
