I gave a presentation on "Factory Guardian" at the Advantech IoT Solutions Conference!

Introducing the conference on IoT solutions that can be utilized in manufacturing sites, bringing transformation to a century-old established factory!

On July 5th (Thursday) and July 12th (Thursday), 2018, the "IoT Solution Conference" was held in Osaka and Tokyo, where our company presented on the IoT package "Factory Guardian." As a manufacturer of automotive screws and bolts, we introduced actual cases where we created IoT solutions to address challenges faced in the manufacturing industry. 　　　◇◆◇◆Advantech IoT Solution Conference◇◆◇◆◇ 　　　　A conference on IoT solutions that can be utilized in manufacturing sites, provided by Advantech, a leading company in industrial PCs, and Japan Rad, which combines hardware and software. 　　　　Date: July 5th 　　　　　Venue: Osaka (Express Coco 200) 　　　Presentation Topic: What does the introduction of IoT mean for a century-old factory? 　　　　Date: July 12th 　　　　　Venue: Tokyo (Kyodo News Building, 5th Floor) 　　　Presentation Topic: What does the introduction of IoT mean for a century-old factory? 　　◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

• Construction and process management software

IoT specialized for factories! A robust system upgraded around industrial PCs and more.

Factories have various environments such as oil smoke and vibrations. In IoT for manufacturing, performance that can continue to operate robustly even in such environments is required. The PCs used in "Factory Guardian" are manufactured by Advantech Co., Ltd., which has a proven track record as industrial PCs. Other network devices and sensors are designed and packaged with the premise of being used in factories. For manufacturing factories, we propose an IoT package from Yamashina. To address such questions and challenges... ● In environments with vibrations and oil smoke, electronic devices are likely to fail quickly. ● We want to use reliable equipment even in small and medium-sized manufacturing companies. All of the above challenges are resolved by Yamashina's "Factory Guardian." *For more details, please refer to the PDF or contact us.

Would you like to see the hard-to-imagine IoT in action at an actual usage site (a screw factory)?

The IoT package system "Factory Guardian" is an IoT system developed based on a model of a screw manufacturing factory and is sold by Yamashina. In response to customer concerns such as, "Even if we talk about IoT in factories, there are no actual products, and it's hard to understand," Yamashina is holding tours of the IoT system "Factory Guardian," which is operational in its own factory. We believe that the methods for acquiring information from actual devices, wiring, communication, PC systems, and how to display data obtained from information will serve as a reference for the introduction of IoT in manufacturing factories. To solve such challenges… ● We are considering the introduction of an IoT system in our factory but want to see something that is actually operational. ● We want to hear firsthand accounts of the challenges before implementation and the benefits after implementation. Please feel free to consider visiting our IoT system. *For details, please refer to the PDF or contact us. *We may decline visits from individuals in the screw industry for the "Factory Guardian" tour.

• Construction and process management software

It's easy to implement because it's a package! No know-how or skills are required! The IoT transformation of factories can be realized immediately.

The IoT package system "Factory Guardian" is developed based on models of manufacturing factories and is already an operational IoT system. Based on this track record, we offer a complete package that includes sensors, communication systems, cloud services, and PC software. We address the challenges of IoT implementation, such as the time and effort required to consider the appropriate parts and communication for the factory and to negotiate with each of these vendors. Additionally, there is no need for personnel who are well-versed in these areas. Are you facing any of these issues? - You don't have the time or capacity to consider the system from sensors to communication and monitoring... - There are no specialized personnel responsible for IoT... - You can't envision whether it can be used in your own factory... - You are interested in IoT but don't know how to approach it... - You want to improve quality and productivity by implementing IoT, but you don't have the personnel to handle it... ↓ ↓ ↓ "Factory Guardian" by Yamashina solves all of the above! *For more details, please refer to the PDF or contact us.

We also have special plans available exclusively for Otsuka Shokai, so please come and visit us.

In recent years, the advancement of digital technology has significantly increased the value of utilizing PII (Personally Identifiable Information) in businesses. However, improper management or leakage of PII can lead to serious risks directly affecting business continuity, such as compensation claims, administrative sanctions, and loss of trust. Companies are strongly urged to establish effective personal information management systems, and there have been successive reviews of personal information-related laws and guidelines both domestically and internationally. Amidst this, there is growing attention to ISO/IEC 27701 (PIMS certification) as an international framework for PII management. ISO/IEC 27701 will undergo a major revision in October 2025, the first in six years, with significant changes to the positioning and structure of the standard, refreshing its content to align with modern privacy protection. Companies that have already obtained certification have until October 31, 2028, to transition from the old version, making timely action essential. This seminar will explain the overview of ISO/IEC 27701, key points of the revision, and practical points for obtaining and renewing certification based on the old and new standards.
