 Morgoil Bearings for Rolling Mills
First developed in 1920, Morgoil bearings have evolved over the past 80
years to become a key component in rolling mills used in ironworks all
over the world. Utilizing an oil film, Morgoil bearings respond to the
ever-increasing demands of today's faster, heavier rolling mills.

 Machine tools (mfd. by Toshiba Machine Co., Ltd.)
The department handles various types of machine tools including machining
centers, boring machines, vertical lathes, surface grinders, and roll grinders.
Roll grinders are used primarily in ironworks to automatically grind rolling
mill rolls (work rolls, intermediate rolls, backup rolls) to a high degree
of precision (0.003 mm/m cylindricity, 0.003 mm/m circularity).

 Scarfing Machines/Cutting Machines
Scarfing machines are designed to remove surface defects on hot and cold
slabs using oxygen and fuel gas. Cutting machines similarly use oxy-fuel
gas to cut intermediate steel products into lengths.

 Precision cast parts (mfd. by Ishikawajima Precision Casting Co., Ltd.)
The department handles precision cast parts for equipment such as airplane
engines and land-based gas turbines that incorporate nickel- and cobalt-based
superalloys designed to withstand high temperatures. At the same time,
the department is also involved in the import and sale of superalloys and
ceramic cores used in this equipment. |

 General industrial power generating equipment (mfd. by Ishikawajima-Harima
Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. and Toshiba Corp.)
The turbines and generators handled by the Electric Machinery Department
play a vital role in meeting the electrical power and steam demands of
today’s factory operations. Moreover, the department's equipment has
recently seen widespread adoption among electric power distributors such
as IPPs (independent power producers).

 Accelerators and superconductors (mfd. by Toshiba Corp.)
Toshiba’s accelerators are widely used in the field of high-energy
physics to investigate the essential nature of matter, as well as in materials
science to discover new sources of raw materials. The Electric Machinery
Department also handles a variety of Toshiba superconductor-related products
including direct-refrigeration superconductor magnets and silicon monocrystal
lifting equipment. Superconductor technology, in which electrical conductors
are cooled to extremely low temperatures so that resistance becomes zero,
carries with it limitless possibility for application in a broad range
of fields, from energy to electronics. In short, superconductors have the
potential to dramatically change our society's basic infrastructure.

 Electrical appliances, control devices, communications devices (mfd. by
Toshiba Corp.)
The department handles a broad range of products for general industrial
use, including electrical appliances such as motors, electrical panels
(high pressure, low pressure), inverters, and uninterrupted power supplies
(UPS), as well as devices such as digital control systems, thickness meters,
and flow meters. In addition, the department deals in a wide variety of
imaging equipment for entryway and system monitoring, including CCD cameras,
monitors, and related accessories. |

 IR Reporter (mfd. by Thermoteknix Systems Ltd.)
The “IR Reporter” line of infrared camera and reporter software
is manufactured by Thermoteknix Systems Ltd. of the U.K., recipients of
the Queen’s Award for Export Achievement. This low-cost infrared camera
is equipped with software that can provide line-profile temperature readings,
measure temperature disparity, and even generate printed reports. |

 Centurion & Thermascope (mfd. by Thermoteknix Systems Ltd.)
These infrared line scanning systems are used in cement kilns and hot and
cold iron/steel production lines. Compared to previously existing devices,
Centurion features superior resolution, measuring 1120 points in a single
scan. The scanner unit incorporates a blackbody for more accurate temperature
readings. The thermoscope processes furnace temperature readings into images
that can be viewed in real-time. |

 Heat-resistant camera jackets (mfd. by Security Japan)
The problem of monitoring the inside of furnaces during maintenance has
received considerable attention in recent years. These camera jackets are
capable of inserting camera heads safely into high-temperature furnaces
of up to 1700°C. The company also offers a low-cost line of camera
jackets that can withstand temperatures of 200-300°C.
