パナソニック List of Products and Services

Hertz Electronics Co., Ltd. is creating value across a wide range of specialized fields through the development and production of cutting-edge wireless products, and is particularly leading the industry as a pioneer in poka-yoke tools. Recently, Hertz Electronics and our company have teamed up to create a poka-yoke system that meets demand. We had a detailed discussion about the challenges faced on-site, the necessity of poka-yoke, and the current requirements that informed this development. 【Industry Challenges】 - The number of skilled workers is decreasing, making it difficult to ensure uniformity in work. - It has become challenging to manage quality in a way that is dependent on individuals, necessitating quick detection of worker errors to prevent omissions in work. 【Implementation Effects】 - Work errors have decreased, leading to improved productivity. - There has been an increase in repeat implementations from users, who are experiencing the benefits.

SUBARU Corporation has released numerous popular models such as the "Levorg" and "Forester," based on the advanced technological capabilities cultivated as an aircraft manufacturer. The excellent driving performance and ride comfort, as well as the high safety standards achieved through unique technologies, are some of the reasons why the company is supported by many drivers. Since 2019, the company has introduced Panasonic impact drivers in its first trim department. [Challenges] - The reliance on skilled workers for driving tools meant that it took a long time for new workers to become accustomed. - Diversification of tool needs across different lines. - Frequent repairs were occurring.

LIXIL Corporation is a comprehensive housing and living development company that promotes innovation from the perspective of consumers, aiming to realize rich and comfortable homes and lifestyles that people around the world desire. It creates products with high functionality, environmental sustainability, and design quality. The company's Nabari factory primarily produces entrance doors and interior building materials, and in pursuit of further strengthening quality control, it has adopted Panasonic electric tools! [Challenges] - The management of screw tightness and the number of screws was personalized. - They were seeking standardization methods to ensure consistent quality even when workers changed.

Since its establishment in 1938, Feiden Electric Co., Ltd. has been engaged in consistent production across a wide range of product fields, including home appliances, OA-related equipment, and automotive parts, with injection molding as its core focus. Recently, the company has introduced two units of "Azeloss Type C (EYADA212XC)." 【Challenges】 - Variability in worker skill levels and the burden of verification tasks in operations that require stopping screws without seating them. - The weight and slipperiness of electric screwdrivers were putting strain on workers' wrists and elbows. - Maintenance costs due to regular wear of brush motors.

Since its establishment in 1976, Panasonic Solar System Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has continued to produce high-performance and high-quality products in line with the times for nearly half a century. At its factory in Shimane Prefecture, surrounded by rich nature, the company has created numerous environmentally friendly products and those useful in emergencies. This time, the electronic equipment manufacturing division, which produces power conditioners, has introduced Azeloss's "Type A" and "Type C." 【Challenges】 - The risk of screw tightening defects while manufacturing hundreds of products daily - Increased running costs and management burden due to frequent repairs

The "Trace Impact" is a charging impact wrench equipped with features that enable support for the digital transformation (DX) of factories by extracting work data during bolt tightening and visualizing manufacturing quality, addressing challenges in the manufacturing industry such as "quality control" and "productivity improvement." 【Do you have these concerns?】 ■ Poka-yoke alone is not sufficient for quality assurance... ■ There are worries about mistakes and omissions in paper records of work data... ■ I want to be able to investigate the cause in case of defects... For such concerns, we recommend our Trace Impact series! With a highly sensitive torque sensor and our unique double hammer mechanism, it can digitize torque values, tightening angles, waveforms, and work times, supporting the improvement of production quality. 【Other Features】 - Oil-free, eliminating worries about oil leaks, no need for oil changes, and minimal impact on continuous work due to heat. - Hose-free, making it safer, with no limitations on the operating range, thus increasing productivity! - Equipped with a work assist function that does not rely on skilled workers (badge management, job management, sequence management).

Shiga Kobayashi Seiko Co., Ltd. has introduced Azeloss "Type C" in their new manufacturing line. 【Challenges】 ■ Due to the reliance on manual labor from screw tightening to inspection, chronic issues with screw tightening defects have occurred. ■ The production style is low-volume with a variety of products, making it difficult to invest in equipment. ■ The quality of screw tightening varies between new and experienced workers. 【Solutions】 ■ Switching to a hanging type screwdriver without an attached box. ■ Utilizing the poka-yoke function. *For more details about the product, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where Panasonic AP Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Equipment Co., Ltd. adopted 15 units of the high-end model "Type A" of "Azeloss." Previously, with models that did not have the poka-yoke feature, the company was unable to fully detect issues such as forgetting to tighten screws or shipping products in a temporarily secured state, leading to reports of abnormal noises after shipment. Since the introduction in August 2023, there have been no incidents of screw tightening issues in the new line. [Challenges] - Although measures were taken within the factory to address screw tightening defects, they were using a somewhat analog method of marking screws with a pen. - As long as humans were involved, there were instances of missed check marks, and the factory reported 4 to 5 cases of screw tightening defects annually. *For product details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where 60 units of the high-end model "Type A" of "Azeloss" were adopted at a factory manufacturing industrial equipment. At this factory, the aging of existing drivers prompted them to consider replacements, believing that it would not only improve product quality but also lead to a reduction in maintenance and management costs, which had been a long-standing issue. After the introduction, the analysis of tightening data generated from tools will achieve production efficiency and cost reduction. [Challenges] - Poor screw tightening, such as diagonal tightening, typically relies on the "intuition" possessed only by skilled craftsmen. - Relying solely on intuition is insufficient; at this factory, human resources were allocated to conduct inspections every morning to measure and confirm tightening torque, ensuring quality. - While the daily inspections help reduce the risk of quality defects, they inevitably require staff to arrive before factory operations begin. *For product details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*

We would like to introduce a case study on the introduction of the AC screwdriver "Azeloss" at Panasonic Corporation's Living Appliances Company. The company was previously using a different product that did not have a function to count the number of screws tightened, which meant that preventing missed screw tightening defects relied heavily on the skill of the operators. After the introduction, the workability has undoubtedly improved due to the lighter weight of the screwdriver and the ability to visually assess the quality. [Challenges] - The quality that relied on the operators had many issues related to people, such as training and health, and in terms of cost, it was implemented while incurring labor for checks in the next process. - The quality that relied on the operators was recognized as a challenge for stabilizing high quality and reducing costs, and the company was looking for solutions. *For more details about the product, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*
