The appeal of DX Suite is not just in its precision! A case where a new department was established with the freed-up resources.

We would like to introduce a case study of Sugiyohouen, a sixth-sector industrialization company that consistently manufactures and sells products such as honey, royal jelly, and propolis, as well as cosmetics, which has implemented "DX Suite." For each registration, two operators performed manual input twice, resulting in a total of two entries, and the increase in the number of stores led to an excessive amount of manual input work. After implementation, the number of operators was reduced, resulting in approximately six hours of time savings per day. Additionally, with the freed-up resources, a new analysis department was established. [Case Overview] ■ Target Document: Membership Registration Form ■ Before - For each registration, two operators performed manual input twice - The increase in the number of stores led to excessive manual input work ■ After - Reduced the number of operators while achieving approximately six hours of time savings per day - Established a new analysis department with the freed-up resources *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.
