We would like to introduce a case where we proposed measures to address wear on transport pallets due to material changes and assembly. We received an inquiry from an automotive parts manufacturer regarding wear on the bottom of pallets in their production line, which resulted in wear debris adhering to the workpiece tips. In response, we proposed several types of materials that matched the customer's requirements and created comparison materials for each type. The wear area was addressed by changing the material, eliminating foreign matter adhesion. By making it an assembly type, the outer part of the pallet can be used permanently, significantly reducing costs. 【Case Overview】 ■ Issues - Change to a material that is less prone to wear than the current material - Suppress foreign matter adhesion to the workpiece ■ Effects - The wear area was resolved by changing the material, eliminating foreign matter adhesion - Only the worn top plate and board can be replaced on-site, making pallet replacement easy *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where the lifespan of dressers was extended by utilizing high-quality single crystal diamonds from a grinding wheel manufacturer. To maintain high precision, diamond dressers had a short lifespan, leading to high tool costs and the hassle of replacing grinding wheels. Therefore, we analyzed the current dressers with the grinding wheel manufacturer and changed the shape of the single crystal diamond from a prism to a special shape, as well as increased the number of single crystal diamonds for improvement. 【Case Overview】 ■Challenges - Extension of dresser lifespan - Reduction of dresser replacement hassle ■Effects - Improved retention of diamonds, suppressing wear of the tip shape - Significant extension of dresser lifespan *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of a proposal for improvements to eliminate chocolate stops caused by brush entanglement. In the processing stage of the customer's production line, brushes were frequently getting entangled with the workpieces, leading to frequent chocolate stops. Our company thoroughly investigated the cause in collaboration with our partner companies and proposed standardizing the arrangement of the bristles and the outer dimensions. This resolved the entanglement issue, resulting in zero chocolate stops. [Case Summary] ■ Issues - Thorough investigation and resolution of the cause of brush entanglement - Standardization of bristle arrangement and outer dimensions, extension of replacement intervals ■ Effects - Replacement intervals extended by 250%, reducing running costs - Management of outer dimensions and bristle arrangement has enabled long-term quality stability *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where we achieved a 30-fold extension of the lifespan of end-face grinding wheels compared to conventional methods. In the end-face processing of automotive engine parts, CBN resin bond was traditionally used, but there were challenges due to its short lifespan and the considerable effort required for replacement setup. Therefore, we proposed changing from CBN resin bond to CBN soft metal bond. The results exceeded our goals significantly, to the extent that the customer themselves suggested a price increase. [Case Summary] ■Challenges - Reduction of the effort required for wheel replacement - Reduction of running costs ■Effects - Achieved approximately 30 times the lifespan compared to conventional methods - The results exceeded our goals significantly, prompting the customer to suggest a price increase themselves. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where we dramatically reduced the running costs of pallets. In an automotive parts production site, there was a problem where the transport pallets were worn out, causing a loss of positional accuracy and resulting in downtime. To address this, we improved the design to allow for the replacement of only the worn areas, extending the lifespan of the pallet itself. The worn parts can now be easily replaced on-site, resulting in zero downtime. 【Case Overview】 ■ Challenges - Extending the lifespan of transport pallets - Reducing the replacement costs of worn pallet bodies ■ Effects - New production cost @40,000 → Replacement type @10,000, achieving a 1/4 cost reduction - Material change from HPM1 to carbide, increasing lifespan by four times *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where improvements progressed rapidly through edge analysis using our own equipment. To reduce tool costs, the customer was advancing improvement activities such as extending the life of drills and resolving breakage issues, while searching for solutions. In this context, we conducted edge observation with our measuring equipment and analyzed the welding and wear conditions. The stalled improvement activities began to move forward, resulting in reduced tool costs through extended tool life. [Case Summary] ■Challenges - Resolution of drill breakage due to chip clogging - Reduction of tool costs and drill replacement labor ■Effects - Breakage caused by chip clogging was resolved - Successful improvement of processing conditions, leading to reduced cycle time *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Here is a case study introducing a proposal for reusing chucks through laser cladding. The chuck jaws wore out within two months, leading to frequent stoppages. This resulted in increased replacement labor and decreased operating rates, creating various issues. Additionally, due to the high cost of the parts needed to create new jaws, production costs became prohibitively expensive, making it difficult to implement improvements. By using a highly wear-resistant cladding material, we extended the lifespan of the chucks, which led to reduced maintenance costs and increased operating rates. [Case Overview] ■ Challenges - Reduction of replacement labor through extended lifespan and increased operating rates - Reduction of running costs ■ Key Points - Laser cladding allows for high functionality only in the used areas, making it cost-effective - Near-net shape cladding reduces post-processing costs *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
