TDF-10 TDF-10(Hyd, small Crusher)On 16th Apr a volcano in Iceland erupted and all airports in Europe were closed. Because of this unprecedent incident Bauma 2010 started on 19th Apr with much less visitors than expected. Some of the special foriegn countries exhibition booths stood incomplete and without staff. It was a difficult launching. Nevertheless, when all European airports opened again on 21st Apr the air access to Europe resumed and the number of visitors increased rapidly and the show become very active and particularly on the weekend the attendance increased dramatically and it was showing the very positive signs despite the diffucult circumstances.

As a result of the volcano eruption, the number of visitors was estimated at 415,000 from more than 200 countries. This figure is 17% lower than the last Bauma 2007.

The atmosphere of exhibiton was very positive showing the world economy recovery after the　Leaman shock.

TOKU had very good stand location in hall B3 along the corridor and close to the entrance of hall B3. We received many visitors during fair. Due to the volcano eruption, access to Europe was closed for the first and second day, however on the 3'rd day the flights resumed and the number of visitors increased dramatically. Particularly on the weekend attendance in the exhibition area was covered by full of people. TNC-25TW(25t Air-Hoist)We strongly felt the dynamic economy recovery movement. Also, each company showed their innovative products and improved models. We at Toku exhibited a Small Hydraulic Crusher(TDF-10) and our largest capacity hoist TNC-25TWLP (25t) for the first time at an international fair. They drew a lot of the visitor's attention. Our Dutch distributor AQP-TOKU dispatched 8 people in total during the fair and were busy serving customers. TOKU also had 4 personal at the stand from Japan.

TNB Hydraulic Breaker
Silent and Anti-vibrqation tests have started　in Japan

The noise and vibration problem of hydraulic breakers in urban areas has been closed up in recent years　in respect to environmental consiousness in Japan.
Every hydraulic breaker manufacturer is intensively putting efforts to reduce the noise and vibration of hydraulic breakers. TOKU has also struggled on this issue for many years and have tested proto type units. According to our engineer's experiences, the noise and vibration issues are often comin from the same source. As a result, they have found that when the vibrqation level is reduced, the noise level is also lower than before. this discovery developed a hint in designing a breaker with less noise and vibration. The main cause of vibration and noise deveops during impact of the breaker.
A new breaker supporting system was develped by our engineers to reduce vibration and noise. Through this development, we have succeeded in lowering the noise and vibration levels for our breakers. It is a revolutionary improvement.
According to the staff that oprerate breakers, this development has reduced the vibratiion of entire machine.

*The average noise level has also improved by 10% compared to conventional breakers performed at our test site.

TOKU's premier overseas sales and manufucturing facility in Sahnghai, China；
Shanghai-TOKU international Co.,Ltd
Shanghai-TOKU manufacturing Co.,Ltd

In April 2002 Shanghai-TOKU (Sales Company) was established for the purpose of expanding sales of hydraulic breakers in China. The presence in China was an advantage to promote better service and to expand business through out China.

After the Leeman shock in September 2008 the world economy became so weakbut the Chinese market continued to expand while the industrialized nations continue at a slow economic pace. Today Sahnghai-Toku is becoming more predominant within TOKU's overseas business. In April 2008 Shanghai-TOKU Manufacturing was founded as manufacturing company in order to increase the manufacturing of hydraulic breaker brackets and also to have more flexibility in manufacturing to meet local requirements and put more originality in their own products in Chinese market.
