We would like to introduce a case study of a centrifugal and orbital mixer that was implemented by a customer who manufactures and sells a wide variety of adhesives. In one of the company's main products, conductive adhesives, the incorporation and dispersion of bubbles is a very important factor. Since metal fillers such as silver are used along with various resins as binders, sedimentation and separation of the fillers can easily occur, leading to challenges in dispersion and efficiency during the manufacturing process. To address this, they introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARV-310 (vacuum type)." As a result, in just about 30 seconds, they achieved excellent dispersion and defoaming effects, allowing them to supply conductive adhesives with no fine bubbles and uniformly dispersed metal fillers. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Double challenges for both the company and its customers ■ Introduced Product: Awatori Nentaro ARV-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of a rotational and orbital mixer that was implemented by a printed circuit board manufacturer using silver paste in their manufacturing process. The company was previously degassing their materials under vacuum for about 30 minutes after manual stirring. However, upon using the materials after degassing, voids occurred during the printed circuit board manufacturing process. Upon investigation, it was found that most of the solvent components contained in the materials had evaporated during the vacuum degassing. As a solution, they introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARE-310 (atmospheric pressure type)." The task that previously took 30 minutes was completed in just a few minutes, eliminating the need for constant supervision and allowing more time to be allocated to other tasks, making the process much more efficient. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: The hassle of degassing and issues with voids and material degradation ■ Introduced Product: Awatori Nentaro ARE-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

We would like to introduce a case study of a rotation and revolution mixer that was implemented by a customer researching special radio wave absorption wall materials. The company had been using a conventional propeller mixer to stir carbon fibers, but due to the shear force of the propeller, the fibers were being cut into smaller pieces no matter how they tried. Therefore, it was necessary to find a stirring method that would not compromise the fibrous nature of the material. As a solution, they introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARE-310 (atmospheric pressure type)." "We were amazed that the operation time was only 3 minutes. Since there is no propeller, the fibers of the carbon material were mixed while being preserved," was the feedback we received. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Fibers being cut into smaller pieces due to stirring with a propeller mixer ■ Product Introduced: Awatori Nentaro ARE-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

Here is a case study of a rotational and orbital mixer introduced to an ink manufacturer that creates color samples by blending multiple colors of ink. The company faced various challenges related to stirring technology, material loss, and work efficiency. It was very difficult to stir a wide variety of materials uniformly at the same time, as the specific gravity, viscosity, and material properties varied by color, leading to unstable blending. To address this, they introduced the "Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 (atmospheric pressure type)." As a result, they were able to use disposable containers and paper cups, allowing them to allocate the time previously spent on cleaning the machine to blending instead. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Various issues related to ink stirring of multiple materials ■ Introduced Product: Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

We would like to introduce a case study of a rotational and orbital vacuum mixer that was implemented by a customer manufacturing and selling compound semiconductors. The company previously used a spatula to manually stir the resin and then degassed it using a vacuum degassing machine. However, this method was insufficient for handling high-viscosity resins, which tend to be adopted in development products. There were mainly three issues: variability caused by manual stirring, inability to achieve uniform mixing, and inefficiency in the process. Therefore, they introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARV-310 (vacuum type)." As a result, they can now register operating conditions for each material in memory, allowing anyone to reproduce the same quality of degassing simply by recalling the memory and starting the operation. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Issues: Variability, work efficiency problems ■ Introduced Product: Awatori Nentaro ARV-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is a case study of the rotational and orbital vacuum mixer introduced to a company that manufactures endoscopes. To produce highly reliable products, several materials, including components, are essential, and among them, the role of adhesives used to connect around 40 to 50 different parts is extremely important. As a medical device manufacturer, the company needed to aim for higher quality but was stuck without finding a definitive solution. Therefore, they introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARV-930TWIN (vacuum type)." They conducted an accelerated aging test for about six months with the prepared materials, confirming excellent adhesive strength and durability in the experiment, leading to its adoption in the manufacturing process. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Path to Developing a Strong Adhesive for Medical Devices ■ Introduced Product: Awatori Nentaro ARV-930TWIN *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

We would like to introduce a case study of a customer who has developed and commercialized phosphors for LEDs and has implemented our rotary and orbital vacuum mixer. In their sealing process, the company mixed phosphors with epoxy resin and silicone resin, manually stirred for about 10 minutes, and then degassed using a vacuum degassing machine. With manual stirring, the mixing state varied depending on the operator, making it difficult to achieve a uniform dispersion of the phosphors. As a result, bubbles would rise during the degassing process, requiring constant supervision and leading to a time-consuming process that did not yield satisfactory degassing results. Therefore, they introduced the "ARV-310LED." As a result, they were able to stir and degas simultaneously, significantly reducing the work time. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Issue: Inadequate stirring and degassing with manual stirring and vacuum degassing machine ■ Introduced Product: ARV-310LED *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

We would like to introduce a case study of a customer who implemented our rotary and orbital mixer. In the manufacturing process of biochips, the use of PDMS, a material that enables high-resolution transfer at the submicron level, was required. PDMS consists of two components, a base and a curing agent, both of which are transparent, making it difficult to visually confirm whether they are being mixed properly. To fully utilize the material's inherent performance, it is necessary to pay attention to the removal of fine air bubbles that can hinder the transfer, using an appropriate mixing method. Therefore, we introduced the "Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 (atmospheric pressure type)." We received feedback stating, "There were no color variations, and no fine bubbles were observed, resulting in a very satisfactory condition." [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Fine bubbles hindering transfer ■ Product Introduced: Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

We would like to introduce a case study of a rotational and orbital vacuum mixer that has been implemented by a company supplying white LED elements for backlights to LCD equipment manufacturers. The LED elements were mixed with low-viscosity silicone resin used as a sealing material and phosphor, and then the bubbles contained in the liquid were degassed in a vacuum chamber. However, the use of larger particle size phosphors led to sedimentation and separation, which affected the quality. Therefore, the "Awatori Neritaro ARV-310LED (vacuum type)" was introduced. Previously, mixing took about 5 hours, but with this product, the time was significantly reduced to just 3 to 4 minutes, and there was no sedimentation of the phosphor, confirming a uniform dispersion. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Sedimentation and separation of phosphors affecting quality ■ Introduced Product: Awatori Neritaro ARV-310LED *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We are conducting research to improve the precision of surgical procedures by creating silicone-based artificial organs using a 3D printer and verifying blood flow with these artificial organs and blood vessels. Here, we introduce a case study of a rotational and orbital vacuum mixer that our customer has adopted. Previously, the company placed silicone for 3D printers in a vacuum chamber for degassing, but due to the issue of silicone spattering in the vacuum chamber, the process took a lot of time. Therefore, they first borrowed a demo unit and introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARV-310." As a result, the scattering of laser light was significantly reduced, allowing for the production of highly transparent artificial organs. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Degassing high transparency silicone for 3D printers ■ Product Introduced: Awatori Nentaro ARV-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of a customer who produces glass paste used for sealing, coating, and insulation, widely used as various electronic components, and supplies it to electronic device manufacturers. In order to simultaneously meet customer demands for shorter delivery times and high quality, the company needed to review all processes. They introduced the "Awatori Neritaro ARV-310 (vacuum type)" and "ARC-40H." As a result, they were able to uniformly disperse high-density glass particles in high-viscosity resin while also enabling defoaming. Additionally, they could set up four syringes at once, allowing for filling without variations or air bubble contamination. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Supply high-viscosity glass paste with high quality in a short period ■ Introduced Products: Awatori Neritaro ARV-310 / ARC-40H *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

We would like to introduce a case study of a customer involved in the research and development of heat-dissipating ceramic materials who adopted our rotational and orbital mixer. The company had been mixing materials primarily by hand, but they were unable to achieve satisfactory results when mixing large amounts of powder with a high-viscosity binder. Therefore, we demonstrated the conditions using a large amount of powder that could not be mixed by hand. As a result, what previously took several hours to achieve a satisfactory state was transformed into a uniform ceramic slurry in just a few minutes. Since the device settings can be registered in memory according to material conditions, reproducibility is also high, leading to the adoption of the "Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 (atmospheric pressure type)." [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Mixing of high-viscosity binder and powder ■ Product Introduced: Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We have prepared candidate pharmaceutical compounds in various sample patterns and are conducting toxicity analyses. Here, we introduce a case of the rotation and revolution nano-milling machine that our customer has implemented. The company handles many expensive compounds, so it is ideal to prepare samples with a small amount of the compound and analyze them without incurring high costs. However, due to the specifications of the equipment used for preparation, it was necessary to process more than 1 kg of the compound at a time to achieve effective milling, which was financially challenging. Therefore, they introduced the "Milling Nano Taro NP-100." Equipped with a cooling function, it has become possible to mill candidate pharmaceutical compounds, which may undergo physical property changes due to heat generation during milling, with greater peace of mind. [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Dispersion of expensive candidate pharmaceutical compounds ■ Introduced Product: Milling Nano Taro NP-100 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Crusher

We would like to introduce a case study of the rotation and revolution vacuum mixer that was implemented for our customers involved in the assembly of automotive parts. At the company, lubricants and sealants such as grease are placed in barrel containers and applied using a cartridge-type dispenser to protect metal processing surfaces and joints. However, there were some substances that could not be applied uniformly within the liquid, and it was thought that the thixotropic nature of the liquid and the incorporation of air bubbles might be the cause, necessitating a solution to this issue. Therefore, we introduced the "Awatori Nentaro ARV-930TWIN." We received feedback stating, "Production efficiency has dramatically improved, and it has really helped us cost-wise." [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Challenges in uniform application of lubricants, etc. ■ Product Introduced: Awatori Nentaro ARV-930TWIN *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of a customer who manufactures and sells resins used for insulation materials, who has implemented our rotary and orbital mixer. The company has been using the "Awatori Neritaro AR-250" almost daily at full capacity for over 10 years in the stirring and degassing process, which is one of the steps in resin manufacturing. Recently, they decided to use it in a different process involving a high-viscosity resin and tried it in-house, but they experienced increased vibrations compared to the conventional materials, leading to frequent overheating of the device's motor. As a solution, they introduced two new products for the new materials: the successor to the AR-250, the "Awatori Neritaro ARE-310," and the "E Netsu Samashi." They expressed, "The operating noise is quiet, and the vibrations are minimal; it feels like an evolution from the product we were using." [Case Study] ■ Customer's Concern: Issues when using the Neritaro they have used for over 10 years for a different application ■ Introduced Products: Awatori Neritaro ARE-310 / E Netsu Samashi *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
