This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. The "Human Resource Development Edition" presents various solutions to the challenges of human resource development in industries and companies involved in manufacturing. [Document Overview] One of the educational challenges in production sites is the "difficulty of learning and teaching machine operation." In recent years, it has become common to hire personnel who have not received education related to manufacturing, which means that we often have to teach NC processing from scratch. However, while we can teach how to create data using the CAD/CAM systems implemented on-site, we cannot provide hands-on experience with "machine operation." Without the ability to operate the machine, even if one can create programs, they cannot run the machine. To address these issues, it is necessary to equip individuals with "machine operation" skills that cannot be acquired through software alone. In this document, we will introduce a machine simulator that allows learning machine operation with a control panel similar to that of actual machines, addressing the educational challenges in production sites. *You can download the document using the button below.

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. In the "Productivity Improvement Edition," we offer solutions aimed at enhancing productivity by streamlining various manufacturing processes and reducing man-hours and costs. [Document Overview] There are various factors contributing to the decline in productivity in the manufacturing industry, but one area that particularly requires effort to resolve is "task dependency." Among these, creating machining programs is a task that tends to become dependent on specific individuals, as it requires knowledge of machine specifications and processing. However, if tasks remain dependent on specific individuals, it can lead to a decline in productivity in various aspects. To improve this, it is necessary to "standardize tasks" so that all employees can achieve the same results regardless of who is working on them. In this document, we will introduce the challenges arising from task dependency and effective CAD/CAM systems for standardizing operations in sites that have implemented Mazak machines. *You can download the document using the button below.

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. In the "3D Data Utilization" edition, we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. [Document Overview] In replica production, while "molding" offers high reproducibility, there is a risk of damage or injury during the molding process, which often leads to measurements being taken through "visual inspection." However, issues such as: - "I forgot to measure the shape of the side, so I have to go back to the site..." - "The measurement and drafting process takes an enormous amount of time and labor" are indeed occurring. As a solution to these challenges, the adoption of 3D scanners is suggested. However, since there are various types and methods of 3D scanners, selecting the wrong model can result in not achieving satisfactory results. This document summarizes the challenges faced in the field of replica production and explains how to reduce work time through the use of 3D scanners.
