The Takasaki Manufacturing Technology Research Institute plans to hold an "exercise-based" online seminar from August to October 2023.

In the seminar, participants will acquire quality building techniques aimed at preventing troubles in the upstream processes of the manufacturing industry. The program focuses on case studies and exercises, particularly honing the practical skills of young engineers to enhance their abilities. Schedule: ■ September 27 (Wednesday) Thoroughly master Toyota-style DRBFM/FMEA through case exercises! We can achieve zero leakage accidents. 10:00 AM - 5:30 PM, 7,000 yen (Member price: 4,900 yen) ■ October 20 (Friday) Thoroughly master recurrence prevention procedures through case exercises! We will never allow the same problem to recur again. 10:00 AM - 5:30 PM, 7,000 yen (Member price: 4,900 yen) ■ October 27 (Friday) DX strategies for managers and engineers: Utilizing AI and digital technologies to aim for a tenfold increase in operational efficiency. 1:30 PM - 5:30 PM, 5,000 yen (Member price: 3,000 yen)

Practical Application and Case Studies of Toyota DRBFM: Procedures for Preventing Market Outflow Troubles and Accidents, and Explanation of Specific Cases for Designing Reliability and Safety Without Omissions.

◆Date: February 10, 2023 (Friday) ◆Method: Conducted online (targeting manufacturing industries nationwide) ◆Target Audience: Frontline leaders (design engineers, manufacturing engineers, quality assurance engineers) Please apply as a company or as an individual. ◆Time: 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM (4 hours/session) ◆Participation Fee: 5,000 yen per company (no limit on the number of participants) <Members: 3,000 yen> Payment via bank transfer or credit card ◆Text: PDF data will be available for download in advance for each session. Overview: What is the purpose of FMEA? It is absolutely unacceptable for quality issues in the market to lead to accidents. However, why do smoke, fire, and structural failures occur? Conducting a formal FMEA will never eliminate market troubles. This course will teach techniques to incorporate FMEA/DRBFM into the design process to ensure reliability throughout the entire process from design to manufacturing. Program: 1. Quality building techniques in upstream processes 2. Knowledge management techniques for past troubles 3. Key points of reliability design in mechatronics equipment development 4. Implementation procedures for DRBFM/FMEA

We would like to inform you that we will be exhibiting our products at the Membrane Symposium 2025. If you are planning to attend, please feel free to stop by. ❚ Products Scheduled for Exhibition - Artificial Lipid Bilayer Experimental Device | Orbit mini You can easily measure channel activity at the single-molecule level. This device allows for the formation of lipid membranes, reconstitution of membrane proteins, and single-channel measurements in experiments using artificial lipid bilayers, all performed with just a micropipette, enabling functional and structural analysis of target membrane proteins and evaluation of drug effects. - Liposome Preparation Device | Vesicle Prep Pro This is the world's first device that can produce giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) with diameters ranging from 1 to 30 μm without organic solvents, using the electroporation method (vibrating hydrated lipid films in an alternating electric field). - Auto Patch Clamp System | Port-a-Patch mini This compact system eliminates the need for a microscope, vibration isolation table, manipulator, and Faraday cage, which are typically required for conventional patch clamp experiments. It allows for easy data acquisition and verification without the need for specialized skills or experience.
