[Case of Styrofoam Reduction Machine] Reducing maintenance costs by updating existing machines.
RE-E201
By updating the aging existing equipment, we reduced maintenance costs such as electricity and upkeep. At the same time, we achieved space-saving and labor-saving benefits.
Case Study 2: Styrofoam Reduction Machine RE-E201 ■Industry: Other ■Application: Reduction of Styrofoam (packaging material) 【Customer's Challenges】 The company, a group company of a major manufacturer headquartered in Nagano Prefecture, is responsible for logistics and recycling. They collect approximately 700 to 1,000 kg of cushioning material (Styrofoam) generated within the group for product packaging each month. Previously, they used a competitor's Styrofoam reduction machine, but faced issues such as "increased maintenance costs due to aging," a structure that easily accumulates powdered Styrofoam in the crushing and reduction areas leading to "complicated cleaning at the end of operations," and "high energy consumption for electricity and exhaust (deodorization)." Additionally, the large size of the equipment and the significant space it occupies were also concerns. *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.
