[Exhibition Participation Announcement] Food Tech Japan Osaka March 8-10

Shall we finally solve your concerns about "sticking" and "wear"?

The original surface treatment (coating) "JC Coat" was born from the surface treatment technology cultivated in electronic component manufacturing. Based on DLC coating*, it is a contract coating that imparts various characteristics through our unique technology, and it is used in printing masks, food manufacturing equipment, and industrial machinery. *DLC coating... stands for diamond-like carbon. JC Coat PH has low adhesion to soft metals and a low wear coefficient, making it a specification with the highest hardness in the series and a wide range of applications. It can accommodate various metals and ceramics, and when there are tools and process line equipment parts that frequently contact soft metals, it strongly supports the reduction of adhesion and the resolution of cleaning issues. 【Features】 ■ Capable of film formation at low temperatures ■ Can form a film down to fine details, accommodating complex structures ■ More cost-effective compared to general DLC ■ Complies with domestic food contact material regulations 【Examples of Use】 ■ Food slicing blades: improved wear resistance ■ Blades for electronic components: prevention of adhesion to soft metals For more details, please feel free to contact us.

I don't want to have adhesion, but I'm worried about various coatings... This is for those people!

The original surface treatment (coating) "JC Coat" was born from the surface treatment technology cultivated in the manufacturing of electronic components. Based on DLC coating*, our unique technology provides various characteristics, making it suitable for use in printing masks, food manufacturing equipment, and industrial machinery. *DLC coating…short for diamond-like carbon By processing JC Coat P on parts of the manufacturing line and imparting anti-fouling properties, we expect to achieve labor-saving maintenance and cleaning. This will lead to significant process improvements across the entire line. 【Features】 ■ No need for redesign considerations due to the thin film coating ■ Strong adhesion to the substrate makes it difficult to peel off, eliminating concerns about foreign material contamination ■ Approximately 4-5 times harder than stainless steel ■ Complies with domestic regulations for food contact materials in Japan 【Examples of Applications】 ■ Food-related Weighing devices…Improved yield, reduced cleaning costs Conveying lines…Stable supply, reduced cleaning costs ■ Industrial-related Precision nozzles…Improved liquid discharge Cutter blades…Maintains sharpness while suppressing adhesion of adhesives and other materials For more details, please feel free to contact us.

I don't want to have adhesion, but I'm worried about various coatings... This is a case study for those in that situation!

The original surface treatment (coating) "JC Coat" was born from the surface treatment technology cultivated in electronic component manufacturing. Based on DLC coating*, it is a contract coating that incorporates various characteristics through our unique technology, and is used in printing masks, food manufacturing equipment, and industrial machinery. *DLC coating... stands for diamond-like carbon. By processing JC Coat P on parts of manufacturing lines in food factories and industrial plants, we provide anti-fouling and water and oil repellency, which leads to reduced cleaning and maintenance time, prevention of work-related accidents, and reduced waste. A significant feature is that, due to the structure of the coating, it is difficult for it to peel off in chunks. Here, you can download a collection of case studies summarizing the applications of JC Coat P. 【Features】 ■ No need for redesign considering the coating due to its thin film ■ Strong adhesion to the substrate makes it difficult to peel off, eliminating concerns about foreign matter contamination ■ Has a hardness approximately 4-5 times that of stainless steel ■ Complies with domestic regulations for food contact materials in Japan

[Speaker] Ministry of Defense, Defense Planning Bureau, Defense Planning Division Director of Early Equipment Promotion Office, Mr. Toshiyuki Hinosawa [Key Lecture Content] As the security environment surrounding our country has become the most severe and complex since the post-war period, we are advancing efforts toward early equipment procurement in areas that are particularly urgent and important from a policy perspective, while also incorporating cutting-edge technology. In particular, unmanned assets were heavily utilized during Russia's invasion of Ukraine, drastically changing the nature of combat. In the future, I will discuss how the Ministry of Defense and the Self-Defense Forces will enhance these capabilities, including the multi-layered coastal defense system concept "SHIELD." [Lecture Items] 1. Concept and Overview of Early Equipment Procurement 2. Major Efforts Toward Early Equipment Procurement to Date 3. Strengthening Defense Capabilities of Unmanned Assets 4. Establishing a Multi-Layered Coastal Defense System "SHIELD" Using Unmanned Assets 5. Q&A / Business Card Exchange

We will be exhibiting at the "Converting Technology Comprehensive Exhibition 2026," which focuses on processing machines and equipment centered around converting technology. When you visit, please be sure to stop by our booth. We sincerely look forward to your visit. 【Our Booth Number】 2W-R33

[Instructor] Shunsuke Suzuki, President and CEO, Management Techniques Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] The modern business environment is changing at an unpredictable pace, and to achieve success, new approaches that go beyond traditional thinking are essential. "Normal" thinking and "conventional" solutions cannot differentiate you in a highly competitive market. True breakthroughs arise from stepping outside the box. Therefore, the ability to "discover hidden problems and create innovative ideas that others cannot think of" becomes crucial. So, how can we develop such abilities and apply them in the business field? Successful business leaders, skilled engineers, and entrepreneurs who have achieved results do not rely solely on logic; they employ creative thinking. This can be broadly categorized into four areas: associative thinking, abstract thinking, multifaceted thinking, and conceptual thinking. In this seminar, we will learn four creative thinking approaches that will be immediately applicable in business settings. Through these, let’s master the way of thinking that will keep you one step ahead in the business world.

[Speaker] President and CEO of Leading Innovation Co., Ltd. Senior Consultant Yoshizawa Yosuke [Lecture Topics] 1. Common sense is creating a sense of stagnation in new product and new business development. 2. Reasons why "latent needs are infinite." 3. How to convert technology into functionality. 4. The importance and methods of converting functionality into value. 5. How to discover attractive themes from technology through a business structure map and generative AI. 6. Formulating competitive advantage strategies. 7. Q&A Session.
