• Hydrogen Production

In the face of uncertainty regarding future energy supply, we are advancing efforts towards high-efficiency "electrification" and "hybridization" based on gas combustion furnaces.

**Electrification of Thermal Equipment** In an uncertain future for energy supply, we are responding to high-efficiency electrification based on proven thermal equipment (combustion furnaces) to offer multiple options to our customers as an industrial furnace manufacturer. The electric hot air generator (AH-E) can replace our gas combustion type without significant changes to the equipment layout, allowing for electrification. **Hybrid Heating of Electric and Combustion Types** We have numerous achievements not only in fully electrifying thermal equipment but also in hybrid heating that combines the advantages of combustion types. We address challenges such as "securing green power, reducing costs, and ensuring power capacity" through hybrid solutions with combustion types. In addition to improving the efficiency of electric systems, energy-saving systems that utilize waste heat for gas burners are also possible. By incorporating hydrogen gas burners, we achieve carbon neutrality! **We Conduct Practical Verification Tests** We conduct various heating tests at the newly established "Thermal Technology Research Institute" within the Horyuji Center. Among these, the "QCO Test Facility" allows for heating tests with four different heat sources! We propose thermal equipment suitable for workpieces using gas, electric, hydrogen, and hybrid heat sources.

• Manufacturing Equipment

At Seiei Manufacturing, we are proposing low-carbon painting drying ovens to respond to a decarbonized society.

At Shoei Manufacturing, which has extensive experience with painting drying ovens and exhaust gas treatment systems, we offer both "hydrogen combustion type" and "electric heater type" options. By using "renewable energy sources" and "hydrogen fuel," we can achieve decarbonization. Even if these options are not currently available, we can adapt to the uncertain future of energy supply by introducing: - A hybrid type that electrifies part of the heat source configuration - A hydrogen gas burner that can also use city gas/propane gas 【Painting Curing Drying Oven】 Hot Air Zone (100–250°C) ⚪︎ Hydrogen combustion hot air generator "AH-H2" ⚪︎ Electric hot air generator "AH-E" Radiant Curing Heating Zone (700–850°C) ⚪︎ Electric infrared heater ⚪︎ Hydrogen combustion burner Water Removal Drying Oven (100–150°C) / Booth Heating ⚪︎ Hydrogen combustion hot air generator "AH-H2" ⚪︎ Electric hot air generator "AH-E" 【Exhaust Gas Treatment System / VOC Treatment】 ⚪︎ Electric catalytic deodorization system (CT) ⚪︎ Electric regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) Our Thermal Technology Research Institute is equipped with a painting drying test oven (QCO) that includes a painting booth.

• Metal siding

A test furnace based on actual equipment, with dissolution using a hydrogen burner and retention using an electric heater. Thorough testing for decarbonization in aluminum casting sites can be conducted together with our customers!

It is possible to conduct aluminum melting tests using hydrogen combustion with ingot input. Please use it to verify the quality of the molten metal and its impact on the products. The melting gas burner employs a hydrogen burner and electric heaters for retention! It is a hybrid furnace that enables carbon neutrality. By exchanging burner parts, you can switch between fuel gases (hydrogen/LNG (natural gas)/LPG), allowing for adaptability to trends in gas supply. Additionally, the furnace structure has a high oxide suppression effect, so you can confirm this effect in actual operation. We are committed to solving problems in aluminum casting sites and promoting low carbon emissions. Please feel free to reach out to us. ~Equipment Overview~ Test Furnace: Aluminum Handheld Melting Retention Furnace (Oxide Suppression Structure) Model: SMH-150H2 Melting Capacity: 150 kg/h Retention Capacity: Retention Chamber 800 kg/ch *Actual effective capacity during continuous melting, specific gravity 2.4 Melting Temperature: 660–680℃ Control Accuracy: ±5℃ ~Heat Source Configuration~ Melting Burner: Hydrogen Combustion Burner 116 kW × 1 unit Retention Heater: Immersion Type Electric Heater 9 kW × 2 units Fuel Used: Hydrogen (city gas 13A and propane gas are also possible) Power Supply: 200V/60Hz for power, 100V for operation

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 【May 20 (Wed) - May 22 (Fri), 2026】 'AM EXPO Nagoya' (2-2 Kanjo Futo, Minato Ward, Nagoya City) https://www.intermold.jp/nagoya/am_expo/ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ AM EXPO is a specialized exhibition focused on additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, including 3D printing of metals and resins. It gathers the latest technologies and solutions related to all stages of manufacturing, from design, materials, and shaping to post-processing and quality evaluation, and is recognized as a platform for disseminating information that supports innovation in the manufacturing industry. At Fuji High Frequency Industry, you can experience cutting-edge solutions that bring innovation to the manufacturing field, such as design optimization (DfAM), powder and wire DED technology, and high-precision quality evaluation technology, through actual machines and panel displays. If you have the time, we would love for you to visit us. ★Booth Number★ 1-201 [Japan AM Association Booth] *Pre-registration is required for attendance.

This is a course where you can systematically learn the knowledge and skills necessary for management positions from the perspectives of leadership and labor management, and strengthen your "ability to motivate people." It is open to one participant per company. Content: - The ideal image of a leader - Team building that creates results - Ways to communicate that engage people - Methods for coaching and developing subordinates - Rules of labor management - Prevention of harassment - Mental health in the workplace Here are some comments from participants: - I now have a dream of becoming the best team, so I will share it with my members and take steps forward! - If I communicate what I am not doing to the staff, I won’t gain their support. I will express it through my own actions. - The phrase "strategies to enhance motivation without relationships are meaningless" resonated with me. - I had no knowledge about labor issues, and I learned a lot. I will study to be able to respond as a leader. We look forward to your participation. *Details can be downloaded from "Product Information." *For inquiries and applications, please contact us below, or through our website or by phone. *Registration will close once we reach capacity.

Patent searches that require advanced investigative skills. It is important to efficiently investigate the ever-increasing number of patents, but there is a high tendency for personalization, leading to concerns such as: "I am conducting patent searches, but I am worried about missing some..." "There are too many hits, and I don't know which ones to read..." "I don't really understand how to use patent classifications (IPC/FI)..." We often hear such concerns. Therefore, in this seminar, we will organize the "basic design of patent searches." It's time to graduate from self-taught patent searches. We will introduce practical know-how on how to effectively use keyword searches combined with patent classifications using PatentSQUARE. [Explaining the mindset and steps to avoid failure in searches] Point 1: How to decompose and verbalize the search target Point 2: Tips for reducing omissions and noise in keyword searches Point 3: Comprehensive searches using patent classifications (IPC/FI) ≪Recommended for≫ ● Those tasked with patent searches in research and development departments ● Those who are searching in their own way and feel uncertain about whether their method is correct ● Those who have a lack of confidence in utilizing patent classifications If you want to improve your patent search skills or enhance the efficiency of your daily search tasks, please join us.

This year, Toyota Kikan will be exhibiting at the Toyota Business Fair. We will be showcasing products that are helpful for heatstroke prevention and more. Our top recommendation is SPACECOOL. Please feel free to visit our booth! SPACECOOL is an "eco-friendly cooling solution" necessary for the future of our planet's environment! We hope you take a look. Also, please check out the basic knowledge on heat prevention measures for factories moving forward.
