Expanding the possibilities of 3D printers! Engineering software with various features.

nTopology is software that integrates with existing CAD/CAM systems to realize engineering flows that include topology optimization and more. In recent years, with the advancement of 3D printing, there has been a demand for designs that leverage the high degree of freedom in manufacturing characteristics compared to traditional processing methods, known as DfAM (Design for Additive Manufacturing). This product allows for the incorporation of functional shapes derived from existing CAD systems and enables output to various formats using parameters defined by tools such as Excel.

Achieve lower costs than cutting processes! The production of three-dimensional products using PEEK (polyether ether ketone) is realized with a 3D printer!

In the production of three-dimensional products using PEEK (polyether ether ketone), injection molding is mainstream for large lots, while machining is the norm for small lots. For three-dimensional products made of PEEK, we have started contract processing using FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printers with PEEK filaments produced by our company. This significantly reduces waste and allows for cost reduction. Additionally, with 3D printing, it is possible to create hollow or honeycomb structures internally, enabling material cost reduction and weight savings compared to machining, which can only produce solid forms. 【Features】 ■ Weight reduction: It is possible to achieve weight savings by creating hollow or honeycomb structures! ■ Cost-effectiveness: There is no material waste from machining, making it economically advantageous! ■ Precision: Production is possible at the intermediate level of JISB0405! (Consultation required) ■ Advancement: Due to the FDM method, it is possible to create shapes that cannot be accommodated by machining! *Please inquire as there may be limitations based on the shape. *If we are unable to produce after receiving an order, we will not charge for the costs incurred.

Proposal for problem-solving with the introduction of 3D printers! Introducing examples of cost reduction in mass production.

Our company has introduced 3D printers and primarily offers products related to extrusion molding from design to mass production. We received a request for airtight pieces for building components. Due to the small lot size, it was difficult to amortize the investment in molds, so we proposed a method of creating a simple mold using polylactic acid, filling it with room-temperature curing silicone rubber, and allowing it to cure. 【Case Study】 ■ Material: Silicone rubber ■ Initial investment amount (press mold cost): ¥150,000 ■ Product cost: ¥1,000 (lot of 5 pieces) ↓ 《Created a mold using a 3D printer and molded room-temperature curing silicone》 ↓ ↓ ■ Material: Mold: Polylactic acid, Product: Silicone rubber ■ Prototyping cost: Mold: ¥15,000, Product: ¥1,000 (lot of 5 pieces) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

[Speaker] Mr. Manabu Kamitani, Manager, Performance Unit, Arthur D. Little Japan K.K. [Key Lecture Content] In recent years, both quantum technology and AI have seen technological development and investment at the national level, not just by companies, in various countries. While private enterprises are advancing the verification of the potential and promise of both quantum and AI technologies, the societal penetration of these technologies differs due to the uncertainty of their evolution. This has led to a demand for advanced technological intelligence capabilities that balance the maturity of the technology with expectations for its application in business development and internal implementation based on cutting-edge technologies. This lecture will multifacetedly examine the key points of how to utilize developing advanced technologies, taking into account the current understanding and future direction of quantum technology and AI. [Lecture Items] 1. Current status of the utilization of quantum technology and AI 2. Future development directions of quantum technology and AI and challenges toward realization 3. Considerations for business development and planning for advanced technologies based on the current status and challenges 4. Summary of today's discussion 5. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Speaker] Tetsuji Narita, President of NRT Energy Bridge Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] Due to the rapid expansion of AI data centers, the power system is transitioning from "ensuring quantity" to "simultaneous design of reliability, environmental value, and construction period." While the government is taking steps to ensure system capacity in collaboration with watt-bit and in GX strategy regions, on-site, different entities such as DC operators, retailers, power generation and storage, local governments, and transmission companies tend to operate in different languages. This lecture will organize the current state of the system from PPA to practical design of power source portfolios, providing a checklist for each stakeholder and a common language to "operate on the same schedule." [Lecture Items] 1. Overall Overview: Structural organization of how AI DC has become a "design variable" in the power system 2. Current state of watt-bit collaboration and connection discipline 3. GX strategy regions (DC aggregation type): Issues in industrial cluster design 4. Practical design of PPA and power source portfolio 5. Preparation for environmental value and 24/7 CFE 6. Summary: Stakeholder-specific checklist and common schedule 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Speaker] Kazuhiro Kaiho, Manager, Environmental, Energy, and Resource Strategy Group, Research and Consulting Division, Japan Research Institute, Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] Decarbonization of automobiles is entering a phase where EVs, hydrogen, and RNG are utilized according to the industrial structure of countries and regions, energy resources such as renewable energy and biomass, and infrastructure constraints, rather than being solely focused on EVs. This presentation will compare the U.S. tax credits, LCFS, and RFS; China's NEV promotion policies and hydrogen demonstrations; and Europe's RED III and AFIR, organizing which fuels each region is aiming to expand for which applications. It will highlight different winning strategies for passenger and commercial vehicles and provide insights for Japanese companies. [Lecture Items] 1.
