The "electronic circuit board" is one of the important components widely used in various fields as a fundamental part for controlling electronic devices. The "board inspection equipment" developed by the Industrial Equipment Division is an "in-circuit tester" designed to inspect whether all components function correctly and whether there are any installation defects after various electronic components have been mounted on this "electronic circuit board" (ICT: In-Circuit Test). Among these, the "flying probe tester," which uses a needle called a "probe" that is rapidly moved by a robotic arm to directly contact the electronic components on the board for inspection, is a flagship product developed by Takaya ahead of the world. This device enables the quick detection of various defects that occur during manufacturing. Additionally, it allows for rapid adaptation to a wide range of boards through program changes. It has established an indispensable and solid position in modern manufacturing, which is characterized by small-batch production of diverse products.

The core business of the RF Division is the development, manufacturing, and sales of products that use radio frequency. Since 1996, we have developed various products including radio wave-based store security gates, 2.45GHz RFID readers/writers, and 13.56MHz RFID readers/writers, with Takaya products actively used across a wide range of industries from security to factory automation and logistics. We not only offer our own planned products but also provide OEM/ODM supply, contract development, EMS services, and system solutions, contributing to the creation of added value in diverse business models.

The core business of the Solutions Division is IT services for enterprises. By effectively utilizing the experience, know-how, and personnel that the Takaya Group has cultivated through various system developments, along with the latest IT technologies, we provide optimal solutions to the IT challenges faced by our customers. For example, our highly skilled system engineers respond to the diverse needs of customers with systems such as RFID process management systems, attendance management systems, access control systems, warehouse management systems, and parts management systems. Utilizing advanced research, analysis, and design capabilities, we propose and build optimal systems ranging from infrastructure support such as server implementation and network construction to software development, maintenance, and operation, providing one-stop IT solutions.

The advancements in technology in the field of communication imaging show no signs of stopping. The new digital network market is rapidly expanding, and there is a demand for technological capabilities and production systems that can supply cutting-edge products in a timely manner. In response to the needs of this era and the industry, the EMS (Electronics Manufacturing Service) Business Division is responsible for designing and manufacturing based on customer contracts. We cater to a wide range of needs, from simple assembly-type EMS through component supply to integrated EMS that encompasses all processes from development and design to final product production, as well as small-lot production of various types and mass production of small models. By bringing together the "wisdom," "skills," and "experience" of Takaya's engineers and flexibly combining them, we provide EMS solutions that address various challenges.

Estakaya Electronic Industries Co., Ltd. (formerly known as Sharp Takaya Electronic Industries Co., Ltd., which changed its name on October 1, 2021) has contributed to the development of an information-oriented society through the development and manufacturing of LSI (Large Scale Integration) devices and modules. Currently, we also manufacture and sell unique development products utilizing the technology and know-how we have cultivated over many years, as well as sell and provide services for environmental products to the local community. In the future, we will further respond to the diverse needs of our customers in an evolving society, from the development of original LSI device and module products to the establishment of production systems, as well as the creation of custom-made equipment and tools.

When it comes to Chinese production, it was generally common to produce large quantities of mature products with predetermined specifications and a limited variety. However, what Takaya aimed for was an EMS capable of meeting the needs for both large-lot production through a consistent production line from circuit board assembly to finished products, and small-lot production of various types through a cell production method. We strive to become the most trusted company in China, continuously honing our skills to develop more advanced manufacturing processes that can supply low-cost, fast, and stable quality.

As the second overseas production base for our EMS business, we commenced operations in 2011. While inheriting the manufacturing systems and attitudes that have earned the trust of our customers in Japan and China, we provide EMS services in Thailand that are compatible with the latest product technologies. We strongly support our customers' global business expansion with a comprehensive service that connects design to finished products across Japan, Thailand, and China.

The Takaya Group is a diversified corporate group that combines the textile and electronics sectors. The core company of its textile division is Takaya Shoji. In 1979, we launched the ladies-only brand "Sweet Camel," pioneering the industry. The cutting designed with women's body shapes in mind stems from the pursuit of women's eternal needs for beautiful hip lines and leg silhouettes. The history of jeans is also a history of the development of materials and processing methods, and our company has consistently been a leading company that develops new materials and processing techniques ahead of the industry. Furthermore, the textile group companies centered around our company have established a groundbreaking, fully integrated system from product planning to manufacturing, wholesale, and retail, as a domestic jeans-related enterprise.
