I was involved in the production of the "touchable" model of Kencho-ji Temple in Kamakura City.

Utilizing lost-wax technology that handles various materials. Leave the prototypes aimed at weight reduction to us!

By reducing weight, we can achieve precision in robot control. In response to customer requests to prototype with topology shapes, we proposed a case of digital casting without molds, which can accommodate orders starting from just one piece. Industry: Industrial Robots Material: AC4C 【What is Digital Casting?】 When considering cost and delivery time, traditional casting methods that require mold production for mass production are not viable options. Therefore, we propose mold-less digital casting with the catchphrase "Just make it from one piece if needed!" With no molds required, zero mold costs, a delivery record of as little as one week, and the ability to custom-make cast products starting from just one piece, we can accommodate complex shapes and hollow products that cannot be manufactured with molds, as the original form is 3D printed. This method is adopted in numerous industries, including aerospace, shipping, automotive, precision machinery, industrial equipment, medical, and construction, and we cater to metal parts manufacturing requests from both corporations and individual customers.

• Picking robots (shelf transport robots, arm picking robots)
• Automatic transport robot

Impeller and turbine parts are also available for short delivery times.

Achieve short delivery times with the "Digital Cast" method, which uses models created by a 3D printer for casting! For large parts with a diameter of φ380, traditional mold production required 1 to 2 months, but with the Digital Cast method, cast products can be produced without molds starting from just one piece, resulting in significant improvements in delivery times. Additionally, we can accommodate special materials such as heat-resistant steel and duralumin. *The product in the photo is SCS13. 【What is Digital Cast?】 When considering costs and delivery times, traditional casting methods that require mold production are not a viable option for mass production. Therefore, we propose mold-free casting with Digital Cast, using the catchphrase "Just make it if you need it, starting from one piece!" With no need for molds and a mold cost of 0 yen, we have a proven delivery record of as short as one week, and we can custom-make cast products starting from just one piece. Since the original shape is a 3D printed item, we can accommodate complex shapes and hollow products that cannot be manufactured with molds. This method is adopted in numerous industries, including aerospace, shipping, automotive, precision machinery, industrial equipment, medical, and construction, and we cater to requests for metal parts from both corporate and individual customers.

You can create it from just one piece, with a minimum of one piece and a shortest time of one week for mold-less casting.

When you need prototype parts while repeatedly making design changes during development, when there is no stock of parts and you need a quick fix, or when you suddenly want original jigs for on-site work... Isn't there a limited and fixed mindset regarding the ordering sources and manufacturing methods when the required quantity is small? Considering cost and delivery time, options like mold production for repeat mass production or casting methods for metal products are not viable, right? Therefore, if needed, we propose mold-less casting digital cast with the catchphrase "Just make it from one piece." With zero mold costs and a delivery record of as short as one week, you can order custom-made cast products starting from just one piece. Since the original form is a 3D printed item, we can accommodate complex shapes and hollow products that cannot be manufactured with molds. This method is adopted in numerous industries, including aerospace, shipping, automotive, precision machinery, industrial equipment, medical, and construction, and we cater to metal parts manufacturing requests from both corporate and individual customers.

The "Hotron Non-Contact Switch" allows you to open and close doors without directly touching door knobs or switches, making it hygienic! You can choose from two types: the "Hand Wave Sensor," which only requires you to wave your hand, and the "Foot Switch," which only requires you to place your foot in front of it. It reduces the risk of virus and bacteria transmission in places where hygiene is a concern, such as food factories, restaurants, hospitals, and nursing facilities. 【Features】 ○ Reduces the risk of virus transmission by allowing door operation without contact ○ A wide variety of options to choose from based on application and location ○ Ideal for places where hygiene is a priority, such as food factories and medical facilities ○ Prevents unnecessary detection due to the switch mechanism 【Product Lineup】 ■ Hand Wave Sensor Series ○ Exposed waterproof type, front, down, and side-facing type "PF-R5" ○ Exposed type, front-facing type "PF-R1" ○ Embedded type, front-facing type "PF-U2" ○ Exposed type, downward wide type "PF-R4" ■ Foot Switch Series ○ Slim type with wide opening, vertical beam type "PF-01S" ○ Slim type with wide opening, horizontal beam type "PF-03S" ○ Standard type, horizontal beam type "PF-05" ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

In recent years, with the outbreak of infectious diseases, there has been a demand for products that cater to "contactless operation," and this trend has extended to environments where automatic doors were previously operated by touch switches. As the automation of doors and the non-contact operation of automatic doors become more widespread, do you have any of the following concerns? ☑ Although automatic doors have been installed, they remain open due to people crossing frequently in busy areas. ☑ Touch switches have been introduced to reduce unnecessary openings and closings, but hygiene is a concern. ☑ Touch switches require regular battery replacements since they are powered. The light beam touch sensor "HA-T401" opens and closes automatic doors without contact, and its compact detection range makes it suitable for narrow passages and busy areas, contributing to energy savings and infection control. 【Benefits of Implementation】 ○ Adaptable to various door types with four spot settings, ideal for busy roads and narrow passages. ○ Energy-saving effects with two setting modes that reduce unnecessary openings and closings of automatic doors. ○ Equipped with a light beam touch function, allowing doors to open and close simply by waving a hand, ensuring hygiene. ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

An article has been published about the case of introducing the expense reimbursement system "Rakuraku Seisan" at TSP Corporation. ~ In the case of TSP ~ Before the introduction, there were challenges such as dealing with the "paper" sent from various locations and the reliance on specific individuals for the tasks. After the introduction, the input and checking of FB data, which used to take 2 to 3 hours, can now be completed in just 5 minutes. Additionally, the mindset of the accounting department, which was previously reliant on manual entry, has changed. [Case Overview] ■ Challenges before introduction - Dealing with "paper" sent from various locations, reliance on specific individuals ■ Key points of introduction - A robust support system for setup and operation - Easy to start from a small scale both financially and functionally *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
