We will introduce a case study of a product developed using 'LabVIEW' at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. The "LED Inspection System" controls a "voltage-current power supply/monitoring device" from a PC to generate current and perform electrical measurements, while focusing light with an integrating sphere and measuring the intensity of the spectrum with a spectrometer. The "Surface Distortion Measuring Device" measures surface distortion by irradiating the surface with a laser beam and measuring the reflected light. Additionally, there are many other case studies developed with "LabVIEW." [Overview] <LED Inspection System> ■ Controls a "voltage-current power supply/monitoring device" from a PC to generate current and perform electrical measurements, while focusing light with an integrating sphere and measuring the intensity of the spectrum with a spectrometer. ■ Inspections can be performed automatically according to a pre-created measurement parameter file. ■ Inspection results are saved in a specified folder. <Surface Distortion Measuring Device> ■ Measures surface distortion by irradiating the surface with a laser beam and measuring the reflected light. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of the development of the "Order Construction Design Arrangement System" at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. This system aims for a paperless environment by digitizing the documents exchanged between the sales, design, and manufacturing departments. Additionally, it allows for real-time inquiries into the progress of ordered projects, with all documents referenced and updated by each responsible person managed as electronic files on an NT server. This has significantly reduced the workload associated with handling paper documents. 【Overview】 - Digitization of documents exchanged between the sales, design, and manufacturing departments - Enables real-time inquiries into the progress of ordered projects - Management of all documents referenced and updated by each responsible person as electronic files on an NT server - Equipped with an interface that allows for anytime verification of progress, improving management efficiency *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case of developing a "data recording device for rally cars" at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. The main purpose of this device is to sample data at regular intervals in confined spaces, such as in mobile objects, and sequentially store it in built-in non-volatile memory (flash memory). After sampling is completed, it is possible to extract the contents of the built-in flash memory as a DOS file image to a PCMCIA flash memory card. Additionally, data analysis can be performed based on the extracted data.

We would like to introduce a case study of the development of a "remote control device using mobile communication modules" at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. Mobile phone companies are selling communication modules that utilize mobile phone communication lines. Using this communication network and modules, we can remotely control devices in areas without electricity or telephone lines. We also collect information from sensors. [Overview] ■ Remote control of devices in areas without electricity or telephone lines ■ Collection of sensor information *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where we developed a "Semiconductor Crystal Growth Monitoring Device" at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. While monitoring the state of (1) strain rate, (2) temperature, and (3) reflectivity on the surface, data is saved to a file. The reflectivity vibrates over time due to interference of laser light. Since the period is the same length as the wavelength, it is possible to calculate the degree of growth.

We would like to introduce a case where the "Board Cutting Device" was developed at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. It is possible to automate cutting by performing board setting on a graphic display that mimics the original version. The board setting allows for cutting specifications to be made in the vertical and horizontal directions on the original version, enabling the cutting out of rectangular board products from the original. Additionally, cutting data can be saved to a file or read from a file for use. 【Benefits】 ■ Automation of cutting can be achieved by performing board setting on a graphic display that mimics the original version. ■ Board setting allows for cutting specifications to be made in the vertical and horizontal directions on the original, enabling the cutting out of rectangular board products from the original. ■ Cutting data can be saved to a file or read from a file for use. ■ As an option, cutting data can be read from a two-dimensional code printed on an instruction sheet. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of the development of the "Processing Data Transfer and Invoice Printing System for Parts Processing Line" at Tanaka Sangyo Co., Ltd. The main purpose is to create production data for processing and transfer it to the processing machines on the production floor. This involves importing production schedule data from the server to the operation PC, sorting it by processing area, converting it into data for the processing machines, and then transferring it to the machines. Data can be transferred quickly via the internal LAN from the operation PC to the processing machines on-site. Additionally, it is possible to create delivery invoices with barcodes for shipments and production instructions for verifying production data. 【Benefits】 ■ Fast data transfer from the operation PC to the processing machines on-site via the internal LAN ■ Ability to create delivery invoices with barcodes for shipments and production instructions for verifying production data ■ Forms are created as Excel files, allowing operators to perform secondary processing of the content *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
