ナブテスコサービス Product Lineup

Containers and tanks transported by conveyors or AGVs. Are you stopping your work just to open and close valves or connect power? By introducing our "Automatic Pipe Connection Device (Auto Connector)," it is possible to automate everything from valve operation to air supply and electrical wiring connections. Benefits of Implementation: Increased Efficiency through Automation: Connection is completed the moment the container is placed in the designated position, eliminating all manual work. Versatile Compatibility: One device can handle air piping for valve operation, air for driving knockers and vibrators, and even power (electrical wiring) connections and disconnections. Elimination of High-Risk Work: For example, in the supply of raw materials to high places, the dangerous task of opening and closing valves previously performed by workers at height is no longer necessary. Usage Scenario: Gravity Supply Sites In sites where raw materials are transported to high places in containers and manufactured by utilizing gravity to drop them to lower levels, workers had to climb to heights for valve operation every time a container arrived. With the introduction of the Auto Connector, connections are completed simultaneously with the arrival of the container, freeing workers from dangerous high-altitude tasks and improving the safety and production efficiency of the manufacturing line.

This allows for easy condition diagnosis through sound, achieving equipment diagnostics that do not rely on experience. This product is a device condition diagnosis tool that anyone can use via a smartphone or PC app. It can directly capture the sound of the target equipment without being affected by surrounding noise. The captured sound data is visualized in graphs, enabling "visibility" of sound without relying on the knowledge or experience of the operator. It allows for the sharing of sound data, which was not possible before. Thresholds for abnormal sound inspections, which varied from person to person, can be qualitatively defined by graphing the sound.

Quitto has been adopted at a food manufacturing factory. The hose connection between the tank and the filling machine required the removal and attachment of the hose clamp every time the filling material was changed in order to clean the hose. Traditionally, this removal and attachment process of the hose clamp took about 20 seconds to 1 minute. Additionally, when reattaching it to the piping after cleaning, there were instances where the gasket would fall to the floor, necessitating another cleaning, leading to time loss during setup changes and piping cleaning. Our Quitto can be easily attached and detached with one hand by anyone. Its unique structure allows for the attachment of a large gasket while pressing it in place, completing the attachment and detachment process in just a few seconds. Since the gasket is securely fixed to the piping, the risk of dropping it on the floor during attachment is almost eliminated. By using it at existing hose clamp connection points where frequent attachment and detachment occur (such as at the end of hoses), it contributes to increased productivity and safety. We also have demo units available, so please feel free to reach out if you're interested. This product is a new development in collaboration with PACRAFT, a packaging machine manufacturer (part of the same Nabtesco group as us). *Patent, trademark, and design applications have been filed.

We have introduced an automatic filling machine in a factory that handles OEM for cosmetics. Previously, when cleaning hoses, the process involved attaching and detaching with a heel clamp, which particularly for those who are not skilled, posed several issues: - It took a long time to attach and detach. - It was not securely clamped, leading to leaks. - Gaskets were dropped on the floor during installation. - There were risks of cuts and other injuries. These tasks were cumbersome and the fear of injury sometimes led to part-time workers leaving their jobs. Since this factory is located in a rural area, they also struggled to hire replacement staff. The new product, Quitto, allows anyone to easily attach and detach with one hand! *This new product was co-developed with PACRAFT and is currently under patent and trademark application. With its unique structure, it presses a large gasket while being installed, completing the attachment and detachment process in just a few seconds. Additionally, since the gasket is securely fixed to the piping, the risk of dropping the gasket on the floor during installation is almost eliminated. By using it in existing heel clamp connection points, especially in areas with frequent attachment and detachment (such as the end of hoses), it contributes to increased productivity and safety.

The mold automatic exchange device automates the installation and removal of necessary utility wiring and piping inside the mold, reducing setup changeover time. It also reduces defective products caused by connection errors and improves work safety. The fluid joints (couplers and connectors) have a non-spill structure, which minimizes fluid leakage to the outside, keeping the floor clean.

During the mold exchange of the vulcanizing machine, it was necessary to detach and attach the heating medium oil and steam piping, which posed a risk of burns to workers due to the high temperatures of the piping. Additionally, it was necessary to wait for the piping temperature to drop, resulting in poor production efficiency, including the piping attachment and detachment work. We developed a special heat-resistant connector capable of withstanding high temperatures (heat resistance up to 250°C / proven track record). Furthermore, since the molds of vulcanizing machines are often thin, there is limited space to install auto connectors. By leveraging our custom-made strengths, we devised shapes that flexibly fit the customer's equipment, solving the space issue and achieving automation of the attachment and detachment work. This improved worker safety and increased production efficiency.

■What is an Aseptic Connector? It is a valve (coupler/connector) that is optimal for lines following sterilization and disinfection processes where maintaining an aseptic (sterile) state is crucial. The internal valve is molded as a single piece (PTFE), completely isolating the sliding parts from the outside air to prevent product contamination. By adopting a unique "double diaphragm" in the internal valve, it is a revolutionary connector that prevents any liquid pooling inside under any conditions. It is ideal for food and pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. 【Benefits】 High cleanability ⇒ The internal structure is very simple, with no areas for fluid retention. No local SIP required for the shaft ⇒ The internal valve opening and closing mechanism is completely isolated from the fluid contact area. Elimination of contamination ⇒ A unique fixation method has been adopted that prevents bypassing around sealing components. Fail-safe design ⇒ It features a self-locking mechanism during connector coupling. Excellent maintainability ⇒ Compared to conventional valves of the same size, it has achieved miniaturization and lightweight design.

• Other Connectors

【Before Implementation】 When configuring piping using double seat valves, it was not possible to create a seamless pigging system from upstream to downstream. Additionally, due to the piping configuration, product accumulation occurred, resulting in increased usage of cleaning solution and longer cleaning times. 【After Implementation】 We replaced the double seat valves with our automatic piping switching device. By using a full-bore connector without an internal valve, we enabled automatic switching of the piping itself, allowing for both pig cleaning and continuous cleaning, which improved yield and achieved contamination-free results.

• Piping Materials

【Before Implementation】 During paint changes in the painting process, a large amount of cleaning solution was consumed, and the line cleaning time was lengthy.

Additionally, there is no risk of cross-contamination since the piping itself is switched. We significantly reduced cleaning time and the amount of cleaning solution used. This led to a reduction in piping switch time and improved production efficiency.
