[Exhibition Participation Announcement] We will be exhibiting at the 38th NEPCON Japan - Electronics Development and Manufacturing Show.

This is a flagship model that arranges probe heads above and below, enabling simultaneous in-circuit testing of both sides of the substrate.

Four probes are arranged on the top side of the substrate and two on the bottom side. Each probe can move freely and at high speed, achieving an astonishing inspection speed that is world-class in standard. By using the upper and lower flying probes simultaneously, a combination inspection of up to six probes allows for simultaneous contact inspection at both points on the top and bottom sides of the substrate. This significantly expands the inspection range and further accelerates inspection time. It is equipped with a wealth of features and boasts world-class standards in speed and positioning accuracy. ★You can bring your substrate to our demo room at our Okayama headquarters for evaluation testing★ We can conduct a series of tests including the creation of inspection programs, inspections using actual substrates, and summarizing evaluation results. If you are interested, please apply through the 'Contact Us' section below.

• Measurement and Inspection

Programming for FPGAs and special performance tests such as BST can be handled with a flying probe tester.

This is an option that equips the underside operating axis of the APT-1600FD series with a dedicated fixture lifting mechanism. It allows for special inspections connected to external devices, such as Boundary Scan Testing (BST), as well as writing to and reading logs from ICs, to be performed in parallel with in-circuit testing. *Please refer to the YouTube video for an image of the operation.

• Measurement and Inspection

The Takaya APT series is a board inspection device capable of industry-leading ultra-high-speed in-circuit testing.

One method for efficiently mass-producing products is the "line production method," which arranges machinery in order of the production process. This method excels in the productivity of single products and is adopted in many manufacturing sites. The incorporation of inspection processes into this line production method is referred to as "inline inspection." Takaya's flying probe testers have models that can accommodate this "inline inspection" by automatically transporting circuit boards on a conveyor. By collaborating with loaders, unloaders, and inverters through SMEMA, it enables automated and unmanned inspection even for large quantities of circuit boards. Additionally, by using it in conjunction with other companies' 3D AOI (automated optical inspection machines), the flying probe tester can detect issues such as microbridges that cannot be identified through visual inspection alone. This approach leverages the strengths of each system, resulting in the elimination of false positives, improved inspection capabilities, and increased speed. If you are facing challenges with full electrical inspection (ICT) of mass-produced circuit boards, please consider Takaya's APT series, which allows for easy line switching without the need for fixtures.

• Measurement and Inspection

Functions specialized for borrowing and returning operations are templated. IC tags are attached to managed items, enabling borrowing, returning, and inventory checks using RFID.

This is a management system for tracking items using IC tags. It reliably records the history of borrowing and returning items, preventing omissions and errors in ledger entries, and supports the early detection of forgotten returns and losses. Additionally, it enables efficient inventory checks through bulk reading with RFID handheld devices. Common issues that arise in traditional borrowing management tasks include: ♦ Handwriting or Excel input into the ledger The process of entering information into the ledger or Excel during borrowing and returning is cumbersome, leading to discrepancies due to entry errors. ♦ Individual confirmation during inventory checks It is necessary to take items out of boxes or shelves one by one for confirmation, which consumes a significant amount of time for inventory tasks. ♦ Management through ledgers Due to management with paper or Excel ledgers, it is not possible to detect unreturned items or losses early and respond quickly. This system addresses these challenges.

• Warehouse Management System (WMS)

We have created a video explaining tool management using the RFID asset management system from Takaya's Solutions Division!

We will solve the challenges of tool management, such as "When?", "Who?", and "Which tool?" using RFID. 【Overview of the Outgoing Management System】 - Attach IC tags to managed items to enable outgoing, returning, and inventory management using RFID. - Ensure accurate recording of outgoing and returning history and enable efficient inventory management with handheld devices.

• RFID/IC tags

• Warehouse Management System (WMS)

In the age of AI, how should we consider "human involvement" in BtoB marketing? As the utilization of AI accelerates, "human involvement" is being questioned again as a key factor influencing the results of BtoB marketing. Now, with the advancement of automation in information gathering and the sophistication of content generation, what customers expect from companies is not just efficiency, but an "experience" that includes a sense of satisfaction and trust. In this seminar, we will organize the concepts of "customer experience" design that marketing professionals should focus on by 2026 from 12 perspectives, including webinars, marketing automation, content, video, data utilization, and sales collaboration. We will consider what roles humans should play in the age of AI and how to design experiential value in the field of BtoB marketing.

In 2026, we will reach the halfway point. In the world of B2B marketing, due to further updates in AI and the deepening of cookie regulations, we have entered a phase where traditional "wait-and-see" strategies are becoming less effective in achieving results. Many of you may be considering what is necessary to ensure lead acquisition and maximize deal creation in the second half of the year amidst fierce competition. In this webinar, four leading companies in B2B marketing will come together. While unraveling the latest market trends, we will provide answers to pressing questions faced by the field, such as "Which channels should we really invest in now?", "What kind of content will be favored in the AI era?", and "What is the optimal solution for efficient nurturing?", along with practical methods. By combining the expertise of each company, we will present a concrete roadmap to accelerate your company's growth in the latter half of 2026.

"Since entering 2025, it has become clear that the number of visitors to our website has decreased..." "With the emergence of generative AI, I am anxious about how the product consideration process will change in the future..." Many marketing professionals share this sense of crisis. The traditional approach of "SEO that targets keywords to improve rankings" can no longer compete in the current search environment where AI selects and filters information. This is where AIO (AI Optimization) is gaining attention. However, the reality remains unclear: "I hear the term, but what exactly should I do?" and "How is it different from SEO?" In this webinar, Shannon, a marketing automation vendor that has felt a sense of crisis regarding the "evaluation from AI" of its own site and has boldly implemented structural reforms, will share specific steps to "correctly teach AI about our company and position ourselves as a candidate for comparison," along with actual stories of failures, in collaboration with LANY, a pioneer in AIO/SEO, and GIG, a group of specialists in information design.

In the sales promotion of contract development and SI business, the biggest opportunity loss may be "the consideration period is too long, leading to not being recalled at the timing of replacement." The thousands of business cards acquired at trade shows, and the logs of "lost opportunities and halted considerations" accumulated in the SFA. These are originally "assets" that could transform into projects worth tens of millions to hundreds of millions of yen. However, on-site sales (or sales engineers) are overwhelmed by immediate projects, making it physically impossible to pursue leads from several years ago. In this webinar, we will present a system for generating business negotiations from dormant customers using MA, based on the premise of the unique limitations of SIers that "cannot follow up on everything."
