CAD/CAM Seminar for Business Owners & Free Tour of Our Prototype Factory!

Many companies that leave the selection and operation of CAD/CAM to the field are unaware of the problems their factories face. Is your factory doing okay? Are there any machines lying idle? Are you relying on outsourcing despite having low machine utilization? As a CAD/CAM vendor, we have been working for 10 years to introduce and maximize the use of 5-axis and multi-tasking machines. As a result, we have implemented a new manufacturing system that is profitable and free of rework.

I will teach you at the seminar: 'A system that can be profitable even without skilled workers!'

In our prototype factory, even newcomers who do not know G-code can create intricate products. The secret lies in the fact that we can seamlessly integrate everything from CAD/CAM to manufacturing. Many companies have introduced 5-axis machining centers and multi-tasking machines, but few are able to utilize them effectively. We receive inquiries such as, "It takes too long to set up the machines," "We cannot fully utilize the machines," and "We have to rely on outsourcing despite low operating rates." Additionally, in many companies where management does not get involved in the selection and operation of CAD/CAM and leaves it to the shop floor, these issues often go unrecognized.

CAD/CAM is a management tool that brings significant results to overall management. ■ Would you like to reduce design man-hours? ■ Are you able to link data both within and outside your department? ■ Are you able to accumulate and utilize the design know-how you have developed? ■ Are you spending too much time on corrections and creating assembly and part drawings during design changes? ---------------- Choosing CAD/CAM can sometimes lead to increased learning efforts and implementation costs, rather than improving productivity. 3D CAD/CAM does not change the system on its own. It is essential to thoroughly restructure the efficient workflow and job structure in line with 3D implementation before introducing the system that can maximize productivity. Your common sense may become the catalyst for change. Please join our free seminar.

From design to manufacturing. How to transform "monozukuri" with seamless data integration.

The manufacturing industry in New Japan has not been able to achieve true "productivity improvement" for decades. Additionally, it has not been able to solve issues such as "early development of human resources" and "skill inheritance." We believe that if things continue this way, not only will we be unable to compete with the world, but we will also be left behind. Even with the introduction of 3D CAD and CAM, which should enable "productivity improvement," why is there no change? We would like to share our thoughts at Kodama on the problems faced by Japan's manufacturing industry and how we should confront these issues. For over 30 years, we at Kodama have been supporting our customers as a CAD/CAM vendor to help them achieve optimal factory management. We have also introduced 5-axis and multi-tasking machines and have been operating a prototype factory for 10 years. From this experience, we discuss how everyone can maximize the use of CAD/CAM to create a new manufacturing system that is profitable and free from rework.

• 3D CAM

The particle visualization technology developed under our brand "ViEST" has a very high level of detection sensitivity, capable of visualizing the suspended or adhered states of micro and nano-sized particles in real time. We are engaged in the sale of visualization systems and contract services for evaluation (investigating particles and airflow in production processes, inside and outside manufacturing equipment, evaluating the performance of cleaning products, proposing yield improvement measures, etc.) both domestically and internationally. In manufacturing environments, invisible fine foreign substances, dust generation, particle adhesion due to static electricity, and airflow disturbances can cause quality defects and reduced yield. Our company clarifies these contamination factors through visualization technology and provides consistent support from identifying the source of the problem to considering and confirming improvement measures. Do you have any of the following concerns? - Unable to identify the cause of foreign matter contamination - Want to check airflow and cleanliness in clean rooms - Want to understand dust generation from manufacturing equipment and transport systems - Want to reduce particle adhesion to films and substrates - Want to improve contamination that leads to reduced yield

We will introduce the modeling features that utilize drawings through "2D×3D integration," which allows for easy creation of 3D models from 2D drawings, as well as an efficient integration function that projects 3D assembly data onto assembly and part drawings in bulk, automatically generating 2D drawings. Additionally, you will be able to see through a live demo how seamlessly utilizing 2D and 3D can lead to improved design efficiency, reduced errors, and increased overall productivity in business operations. This content is recommended for those considering the introduction of CAD or feeling challenges in their current design work. We hope you will join us.

[Instructor] Koichi Sato, Representative Partner / Certified Social Insurance and Labor Consultant, HR Plus Social Insurance and Labor Consultant Corporation [Key Lecture Content] Recently, approximately 40% of the labor force consists of non-regular employees, and the declining birthrate is progressing due to insufficient income. In response, the government has been making successive legal revisions, including the indefinite conversion rule and the so-called "equal pay for equal work." Additionally, against the backdrop of a recent labor shortage, there has been an increase in cases of employing contractors and freelancers, which has raised the risk of disguised contracting due to inappropriate practices. This course will touch on the contents of the "Equal Pay for Equal Work Guidelines," which are scheduled to be revised in October this year, and will also organize the latest "current situation" for each employment category of non-regular employees.

In recent years, have you noticed an increase in corrective recommendations regarding "free storage of molds"? Cases where molds are stored for long periods without orders or where usage records cannot be confirmed are increasingly viewed as problematic from the perspective of the Subcontract Act (Act on the Proper Transaction of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises). In fact, many companies may feel uneasy about management situations such as "not knowing where they are" or "not knowing when they were last used." Therefore, we will hold a webinar to explain practical methods for managing loaned molds as a response to these corrective recommendations. ✅ Recommended for: - Those who feel uneasy about the management status of loaned molds - Those who want to strengthen operations in preparation for legal compliance (Subcontract Act) - Those who have challenges in establishing mold management rules with business partners - Those who want to visualize the location, usage history, and evidence management of molds In this webinar, we will not only introduce management methods but also clearly explain how to advance mold management at a practical operational level. Now is the perfect opportunity to prepare for risks while you still think "it's okay." If you have any interest, please join us.
