This is a must-see free seminar for the industrial equipment and control equipment industries! Please feel free to join us.

Mechanical components refer to individual parts or elements used in the operation of machines and devices. Their range includes switches and sensors, as well as valves and pumps, among others. Most products are assembled by humans using processed parts, which means productivity depends on people, resulting in a production plan with excess capacity and longer lead times. Production plans are influenced by market conditions such as capital investment, but if demand fluctuations can be responded to swiftly, there will be no confusion on the shop floor due to plan changes or troubles. This seminar will explain how to fundamentally review the production management system to achieve lead time reduction and improve productivity. ◆ Recommended for workplaces like this! ◆ - Frequent plan changes and troubles leading to regular delays in delivery - The shop floor is overflowing with parts and work-in-progress - Slow response to demand fluctuations resulting in high inventory - Frequent quality defects leading to a normalization of rework - Chronic defects that cannot be resolved, causing recurring complaints

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).
