Foam Styrofoam Reduction Machine RE-E502X Case Study 1 Industry: Waste Management Application: Reduction of Foam Styrofoam [Customer's Challenges] The company, which collects foam styrofoam primarily from fish boxes at supermarkets in the prefecture and recycles it, has been using the High Melter for over 10 years. Since the introduction of the first unit (RE-E501X) in 2009, they have been operating at full capacity for reduction work every day for 12 years. In 2011, they introduced the second unit (RE-E502) due to an increase in processing volume. Since the foam styrofoam collected by the company mainly comes from fish boxes, some rust occurred on the reduction machine body and various parts due to salt damage, often necessitating parts replacement. Therefore, when considering the update of the first unit, they were looking for a "rust-resistant reduction machine." The High Melter RE-E502X met this requirement. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Company information
■Introduction Yamamoto Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a machinery manufacturer founded in 1918 in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture. We have achieved the top market share in Japan for agricultural machinery, particularly grain dryers and straw cutters. "Because we are a company that has walked alongside agriculture, we want to contribute to improving the global environment that supports food production." This aspiration, combined with our cultivated technology, led to the creation of the polystyrene reduction machine "High Melter." Through the provision of our products, we aim to create a bright future for the industry together with those who are challenging themselves in the recycling industry (*). That is our mission. ■Thoughts on Development The concept of the "circular economy," which views discarded items as resources and aims to circulate resources without generating waste, is gaining attention. However, the recycling industry (*), which plays a significant role in this, does not receive much public interest, and many companies are struggling with labor shortages. Through manufacturing, we want to shine a spotlight on this industry and bring about change. This is the sentiment embedded in all the environmental equipment produced by Yamamoto Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (*) In contrast to the "arterial industries" that produce goods, the industries that collect, recycle, reuse, process, and dispose of waste are referred to as "venous industries," likening them to the circulation of human blood.
