Achieved cumulative shipment of 600 units of the LCD glass transport suction tool.
Thanks to the many domestic LCD TV factories that have adopted our products, we have surpassed a cumulative shipment of 600 units.
The transportation of glass in the manufacturing process of LCD televisions is mainly done by robots, but there are some processes that are performed manually. As the glass has become larger and thinner, manual transportation of glass has become difficult. Additionally, the piping to the vacuum pump, unlike the work done by robots, is significantly hindered by manual work performed by humans. The suction tools are designed to solve such issues and are widely used for the manual loading and unloading of glass into and from LCD manufacturing equipment. The manufacturers that have adopted these tools are major LCD television manufacturers across the country, including Sharp (Kameyama, Sakai, Yaita), IBM (Yasu), Sony (Tagajo, Ichinomiya), Toshiba (Fukaya), and Panasonic (Himeji). In just four years since its launch, we have achieved cumulative sales of 600 units. The principle is simple, and at exhibitions, we are often asked by the general public what is new about it. However, for those involved in production technology, it is a fresh and surprising product. It is often said that it is "an eye-opener" and "something that seems like it should exist but didn't."
