Japan: Ideal Brain

July 23, Delivered [μ-Solator] to Antipa National Museum of Natural History, Romania (Capital Bucharest).

Under the giant mammoth elephant skeletal specimen, the company’s seismic isolation device [μ-Solator] is installed.

A demonstration experiment of [μ-Solator] was conducted in the museum.

Seismic isolation device: [μ-Solator]

The world’s thinnest sheet-type seismic isolation device with a thickness of about 3 mm.

The seismic isolation device itself is generally a thick product such as a bearing type in Japan.

The thinness of about 3 mm is a technology that only the company has.

The equipment consists of two pieces: a stainless steel cell sheet and a special resin-coated steel plate.

Seismic intensity 5 or higher: Earthquake occurred

If an earthquake with a seismic intensity of 5 or higher occurs,

A mechanism that slides between a cell sheet placed on the floor and a sliding plate placed on top of it, and only the cell sheet on the bottom slides.

This prevents earthquake vibrations from being directly transmitted to the specimen itself placed on the top planing plate.

It can also reduce the risk of collapse and fall.

The installation period in this museum is only one day.

Another advantage is that it can be installed easily in a short time.
