November 16, 2022 (Wednesday) - 'Factory DX! Online Seminar on Business Efficiency Improvement through System Implementation'

A must-see for factory managers and maintenance personnel! Please use this as a hint for improving operational efficiency in the manufacturing industry.

We are currently offering materials that explain three common challenges in maintenance and tips for solutions aimed at factory managers and maintenance personnel. We also introduce the "pitfalls" to be aware of when implementing systems that are key to solving these challenges. Additionally, we feature the characteristics and case studies of the maintenance management system 'MENTENA,' which supports the efficiency of communication regarding equipment inspections and repairs, as well as the visualization of equipment management. [Contents (partial)] ■ Overcoming labor shortages by utilizing digital technology ■ Three common challenges in maintenance and tips for solutions ■ Beware of the "pitfalls" that await when implementing systems! ■ To avoid "pitfalls" and successfully implement systems ■ The cloud system 'MENTENA' that visualizes maintenance *You can view detailed information immediately by downloading the PDF. Please feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

Numerous examples are included, such as improvements in the efficiency of security operations and easier decision-making for capital investment judgments!

In this case study collection, we introduce the implementation of the cloud-based equipment maintenance system 'MENTENA' that visualizes equipment maintenance. With the smooth progress of paperless operations, it has become significantly easier to accumulate and analyze data. We feature numerous examples, including that of SMK Corporation, which has centralized information management in the cloud, making internal information sharing easier, as well as Kinshuu Bio Co., Ltd. Please feel free to download and take a look. 【Featured Cases】 ■ SMK Corporation ■ Kinshuu Bio Co., Ltd. ■ Ito-Yokado Co., Ltd. ■ Sugihara Co., Ltd. ■ Denso Iwate Co., Ltd. ■ Toyo Seat Co., Ltd. ■ Nipis Fukushima Manufacturing Co., Ltd. ■ Kumamoto Daido Foods Co., Ltd. ■ Tsuneishi Camtex Co., Ltd. ■ Nishi-Nihon Railway Co., Ltd. ■ Panasonic Eco Technology Center Co., Ltd. ■ Inquiries & Company Overview *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

In the field of food and health food research and development, an increasing number of companies are facing the following challenges: - Difficulty in exploring new functional materials and differentiation themes, leading to a depletion of research topics. - While they are collecting information from conferences and papers, they struggle to translate this into research themes directly related to their products. - They remain limited to competing similar products and follow-up projects, failing to establish uniqueness. - Although there are seeds of ideas, they struggle to elevate them to scientific hypotheses and build the necessary foundations for internal approval. Behind this lies a "wall of execution" that cannot be overcome by traditional information gathering and research processes. In this webinar, we will introduce a new R&D approach to break through these challenges. It is a next-generation research and development scheme that combines AI-driven hypothesis generation, which has achieved results in drug discovery, with scientific hypothesis verification by a food human trial CRO. This will allow for the transformation of vague ideas into scientifically verifiable projects, simultaneously achieving the construction of persuasive foundations for upper management and differentiation development.

Fujikohsuhou Industrial Co., Ltd. will hold an online seminar titled "Tips for Setting Laser Hardening Conditions" on July 20, 2025 (Wednesday). In laser hardening, factors such as output and speed are related to the quality of hardening. We will explain how output and speed are connected to quality factors. This seminar is aimed at those who are looking to start utilizing laser hardening. 【Recommended for】 ■ Those who want to learn about methods for setting laser hardening conditions ■ Those who want to obtain technical information about laser hardening

Take the 'first step' in DX talent development in Fukuoka. We will hold a free seminar where you can learn reskilling strategies that can be applied in the field through case studies and experiences! 'I've become responsible for DX, but I don't know where to start.' This is a participatory seminar aimed at representatives from small and medium-sized enterprises in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, where you can learn the 'first steps' in DX talent development and implementation support. While introducing case studies of representative DX tools such as Power Automate and Power BI, you will experience hands-on sessions with Copilot, allowing you to grasp practical small-start methods that can be implemented on-site. The content also includes specific success stories from the Fukuoka region, along with tips for promoting understanding and advancement within your organization.

We will be exhibiting at INCHEM TOKYO 2025, which will be held at Tokyo Big Sight from September 17 (Wednesday) to September 19 (Friday). This time, we will host many events, including special project stages and mini-seminars. At our booth, we will introduce our solutions and technologies based on the theme of "Sustainable Plant Engineering" from three different concepts. Please be sure to stop by our booth, East Hall 6, K-17.

The Siemens EDA Tech Forum is a technical event aimed at sharing the latest technological trends, case studies, and solutions to challenges with everyone involved in the design and development of silicon systems and electronic systems, while addressing evolving technologies, the densification and complexity of designs, and various design challenges, all while meeting requirements for quality, safety, and reliability. The goal is to deepen insights and networks towards achieving sustainable business. The forum covers a wide range of topics, from advanced design technologies and methods in fields such as 3D ICs, chiplets, chips for AI and ML (machine learning), and IC packaging, to the design, analysis, and collaborative development of electronic systems, including printed circuit boards, across multiple domains, as well as building ecosystems both internally and externally using digital threads. Through case presentations and explanations of design methods by industry leaders, it supports solutions to challenges faced in daily design work from all directions. This is a free technical event that requires pre-registration. We hope you will participate!
