In the last issue “Technology and Challenges,” we introduced the advantages of PIECLEX, the inspiration behind its development, and the technical challenges on the road to productization. In this issue titled “Applications and Outlook,” we asked the developers about the potentials and future prospect of PIECLEX as well its social impact concerning the environmental issues.
“PIECLEX” is a type of fabric based on the completely new concept of “Stretch-driven Antimicrobial” that was developed by PIECLEX Co., Ltd., a company that was jointly launched by Murata Manufacturing and Teijin Frontier. We spoke with Mr. Shiomi and Mr. Takumi, two developers at PIECLEX, about the behind-the-scenes development of this new fabric. In this “Technology Explainer Section,” we introduce the advantages of PIECLEX, the inspiration behind its development, and the technical challenges on the road to productization.
Professor Nakao of the University of Tokyo and Murata Manufacturing discuss here the state of IIoT systems indispensable for implementing digital transformation (DX), which promotes the digitalization of operations and green transformation (GX) that aims for decarbonization. They also talk about the present and future of the technologies sought for that. We explain the technologies sought on the edge side in IIoT systems and the direction of the evolution of that.
Professor Nakao of the University of Tokyo and Murata Manufacturing discuss here the state of IIoT systems indispensable for implementing for digital transformation (DX), which promotes the digitalization of operations and green transformation (GX) that aims for decarbonization. They also talk about the present and future of the technologies sought for that. We explain the technologies sought on the edge side (on-site) and the direction of the evolution of that focusing on the communications infrastructure indispensable for advanced data transmission in IIoT systems.
Murata Manufacturing is now developing a new material with unprecedented strong points. This new material combines transparency, flexibility, conductivity, and safety. Furthermore, it realizes high workability to be able to easily draw circuit patterns and other elements with diverse methods. Murata is seeking partners to discuss with us the application of new ideas using this new material regardless of your business or industry.
Transparent and Bendable Conductive Film (tentative name) currently being developed by Murata Manufacturing combines transparency, flexibility, conductivity, and safety. It is also a material with excellent workability. This means it has great hidden potential to be applied. Unlocking those strong points makes it possible to produce innovative devices that have a high affinity with situations in life and society as sought in the IoT era.
For society to recover and progress in this post-pandemic era, we need to reduce the risk of infection at schools, offices, and other places where people gather. As indicators of the quality of ventilation, CO2 sensors should be chosen with care.
For society to recover and progress in this post-pandemic era, we need to reduce the risk of infection at schools, offices, and other places where people gather. To achieve this, we must avoid the three Cs: closed spaces, crowded places, and close-contact settings. Toward that end, ventilation is especially important for preventing airborne infections. A new method of discerning and announcing the proper timing for ventilation is gaining attention: using CO2 sensors to visualize air quality.
Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has codeveloped a tough and small RFID module that can be embedded into tires through close cooperation with Michelin. This module will bring about innovation in the tire business by managing the usage situation over the entire life cycle of tires – from their production to their disposal.
Features for creating safe and clean living spaces have come to see strong demand in air purifiers and air conditioners due to the impact of novel infectious diseases. We therefore spoke with a manager who is involved with ionizers and ozonizers at Murata about the changes in air modification needs and the features that are desirable in ionizers and ozonizers. This discussion is part of a series of technology articles about Murata Manufacturing.
