We received an inquiry from a customer who manufactures water heaters, seeking to improve the efficiency of their inspection process, which includes checking for cracks in the piping and leaks from welds through water flow tests before shipment. We proposed a specially designed "male joint" tailored to their work. As a result, the time required for inspections has been significantly reduced. The number of inspections that can be conducted per day has increased from 80 to 240, tripling the capacity. [Case Study] ■ Issues - Time-consuming installation and removal - Past incidents of seal tape remnants entering the piping ■ Proposal - We proposed a specially designed male joint tailored to their work. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study that addresses the challenges faced by our customers who manufacture electronic components. They were using suction pads from other companies in their operations, but they struggled with poor adhesion, and even when the pads did adhere, the components would sometimes fall during the process, leading to inefficiencies. We proposed suitable "suction pads" in collaboration with a specialized manufacturer of vacuum transport equipment. The selection of suction pads involved borrowing the customer's transport items and conducting tests with multiple suction pads, after which we submitted a test report. After reviewing the test results, the customer decided to adopt our solution immediately. They are very pleased with the improved workability. [Case Study] ■ Issues - The components are packaged individually in bags, and due to wrinkles, they are difficult to adhere to. ■ Proposal - We proposed suitable suction pads in collaboration with a specialized manufacturer of vacuum transport equipment. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of solving customer issues. The customer was experiencing problems with the impact rollers used under the chute of a conveyor belt for transporting raw materials, as they had a short lifespan. We proposed replacing the impact rollers with our conveyor belt impact cushioning material, "Kurepacto." As a result, there were no more sudden breakage incidents of the impact rollers. Additionally, rock falls were drastically reduced, and cleaning time was shortened. By stocking two types of Kurepacto, we can accommodate all belt widths, making inventory minimal and economical. [Case Study] ■ Issues - Short lifespan of impact rollers ■ Proposal - Suggested replacing the impact rollers with the conveyor belt impact cushioning material "Kurepacto." *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
