ヨシダ Product Lineup

We designed, manufactured, and installed a lead-shielded glove box for decommissioning and an analytical glove box. The feature of this glove box is that when handling high-dose samples, the lead shielding is closed, and operations are performed using manipulators. On the other hand, when handling low-dose samples, the lead shielding is opened, allowing for glove operations. Additionally, as a new initiative, we have enabled full monitoring of the interior of the glove box by installing multiple cameras instead of using lead glass for internal visual inspection. (Patent obtained: Patent No. 6850464 "Shielding Glove Box") The internal mechanism aims to reduce the time of work processes by sharing manipulators and general-purpose robots. Furthermore, samples diluted inside the lead-shielded glove box are transferred to the analytical glove box using a double-door system.

At Yoshida, we’re always looking for new challenges and ways to grow. Since our founding in 1923, we’ve built over 100 years of experience and history. In 1961, we became the first company in Japan to design and manufacture gloveboxes, marking our entry into the nuclear industry. Our strength lies in our in-house integrated production system, where design, fabrication/welding, and machining departments work closely together. This allows us to create products that fully meet our customers’ needs. In recent years, we have been actively engaged in research and development, collaborating with universities, research institutions, and venture companies on a variety of projects. These include the development of next-generation gloveboxes with remote operation capabilities and the verification of separation methods for organic solvents used at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. We are also exploring new ways to apply our proprietary technologies, such as adapting the shielding and containment techniques developed during the Fukushima decommissioning work for use in fields like medicine and aerospace. We strive to be the company our customers turn to when they face challenges, and we will continue to build a system that enables us to fully realize their requirements. Thank you for your continued support. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
