• RFID/IC tags

Industry top share!! "Takaya, the PCB inspection equipment trusted and supported by the world."

The "electronic circuit board" is one of the important components widely used in various fields as a fundamental part for controlling electronic devices. The "board inspection equipment" developed by the industrial equipment division is an "in-circuit tester" designed to inspect whether all components function correctly and whether there are any mounting defects after various electronic components have been mounted on this "electronic circuit board" (ICT: In-Circuit Test). Among these, the "flying probe tester," which uses a needle called a "probe" that is rapidly moved by a robotic arm to directly contact the electronic components on the board for inspection, is a flagship product developed by Takaya ahead of the world. This device enables the rapid detection of various defects that occur during manufacturing. Additionally, it allows for quick adaptation to a wide range of boards through program changes. It has established an indispensable and solid position in modern manufacturing, which focuses on small-batch production of diverse products.

• Measurement and Inspection

RFID technology enhances the value of diverse business models even further. It is active across a wide range of industrial fields, from security to factory automation and logistics.

The core business of the RF Division is the development, manufacturing, and sales of products using radio frequency. Since 1996, we have developed radio wave-based store security gates, 2.45GHz RFID readers/writers, 13.56MHz RFID readers/writers, and various application system products, with Takaya products actively utilized across a wide range of industrial fields from security to factory automation and logistics. We not only offer our own planned products but also provide OEM/ODM supply, contract development, EMS services, and system solutions, contributing to the creation of added value in diverse business models.

• RFID/IC tags

Providing custom security solutions for various industries and operations. One-stop support from infrastructure assistance to software development.

The core business of the Solutions Division is IT services for enterprises. By effectively utilizing the experience, know-how, and human resources that the Takaya Group has cultivated through various system developments, along with the latest IT technologies, we provide optimal solutions to the IT challenges faced by our customers. For example, our highly skilled system engineers address diverse customer needs with systems such as RFID process management systems, attendance management systems, access control systems, warehouse management systems, and parts management systems. Utilizing advanced research, analysis, and design capabilities, we propose and build optimal systems ranging from infrastructure support such as server implementation and network construction to software development, maintenance, and operation, providing one-stop IT solutions.

• IT Control and Services

Supporting cutting-edge technology in the digital network era, we meet industry-specific needs with "high quality," "short delivery times," and "low costs."

The advancements in technology in the field of communication imaging are relentless. The new digital network market is rapidly expanding, and there is a demand for technological capabilities and production systems that can supply cutting-edge products in a timely manner. In response to the needs of this era and the industry, the EMS (Electronics Manufacturing Service) Business Division designs and manufactures products commissioned by customers. We cater to a wide range of needs, from simple assembly-type EMS through component supply to integrated EMS that encompasses all processes from development and design to final product production, as well as from small-lot production of various types to mass production of small models. By bringing together the "wisdom," "skills," and "experience" of Takaya's engineers and flexibly combining them, we provide EMS solutions that address various challenges.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily visible at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*

On August 28, 2026 (Friday), I participated in the "AMD Embedded Computing Summit Tokyo 2026" and showcased a "Gesture Demo" as a partner of AMD. The demonstration introduced a configuration that combines gesture recognition using OpenCV, status reporting with LLM, and one-axis motor control using INtime 7.2 and RSI-ECAT, enabling collaboration between AI, image processing, and real-time control on a single PC. We presented a next-generation PC-based industrial control system that integrates AI, image processing, and real-time control on one PC. <Overview of Demo Participation> https://www.mnc.co.jp/INtime/AMDxINtime/AMDEcsTokyoResults.html <Actual Demo Video> https://youtu.be/JmZke75_y0s <AMD CPU + INtime RTOS Introduction Page> https://www.mnc.co.jp/INtime/AMDxINtime/amdxintime.html #PC #RealTimeOS #IndustrialPC #AI

This time, I would like to talk a little about current measurement in the switching evaluation of power semiconductors (including power devices and power modules).

From measurement instruments to point cloud processing and analysis software, the latest solutions come together! We propose numerous cutting-edge technologies and products that solve on-site challenges in a one-stop manner. It's not just about seeing; it's about experiencing, consulting, and bringing it back to the field. At the venue, we will showcase the latest measurement instruments and solutions, including 3D laser scanners, handheld 3D scanners, LiDAR drones, and 3DGS (Gaussian Splatting). Additionally, we will announce surprise new products!

We have updated the article on the website of the semi-custom system construction "Select Beam." When planning factories, logistics warehouses, and stores, "system construction" has become an effective means of achieving cost reduction and shortening construction periods. The rationality of system construction through thorough standardization is very high, and it is adopted in many projects. However, due to the differing characteristics of each manufacturer, many business owners find themselves wondering, "Which manufacturer is suitable for our plans?" and "Is it really optimal compared to conventional methods?" In this article, we will compare and introduce the basic knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of system construction, as well as recommend manufacturers by purpose in a ranking format. ■ Semi-Custom System Construction "Select Beam" This is a unique method by Sakura Structure, and it is a "third option" that is less expensive than system construction. It is the most suitable method for low-rise long-span buildings such as stores, warehouses, factories, and logistics facilities, as well as high-rise buildings like hotels.
