Explaining the "reform of business structures" for DX transformation, as well as the creation of systems for "preventing troubles before they occur"!

Manufacturing activities are composed of "people," "organizations," "unique technologies," and "production activity systems," but ultimately, it is "people" who determine quality. How can we solve everyday challenges such as poor quality and low productivity? To promote business reform and quality improvement, it is essential to firmly establish "correct quality management activities." To achieve this, factory managers must envision the ideal future state of the factory, demonstrate leadership, and possess the ability to manage people and organizations. This explanatory document clarifies various issues faced by small and medium-sized manufacturing industries and low-volume, high-variety production factories, and provides direction on how to address these challenges. [Contents (partial)] - Promotion of policy management - Skill development education for digital personnel - Organizational reform - Promotion of DX and reform of business systems - Introduction of IoT systems and enhancement of data analysis techniques - Reform of the system for knowledge transfer *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Explaining the basics of "Quality Management" and the creation of systems for "Preventing Troubles Before They Occur"!

The activities of a company are built on "people," "organizations," "technology," and "systems," but ultimately, it is "people" who determine quality. Differentiation cannot be achieved through factory equipment or machine performance. How can we solve everyday challenges such as poor quality and low productivity? To promote business reform and quality improvement, it is essential to firmly establish "correct quality management activities." To achieve this, factory managers must constantly consider what the fundamental elements of "people," "organizations," "technology," and "systems" should be and how to strengthen them, while demonstrating leadership and management skills. This explanatory document clarifies various issues faced by small and medium-sized manufacturing industries and low-volume, high-variety production factories, and provides direction on countermeasures.

Introducing how to promote on-site improvements! We will improve the "management system" based on the "flow diagram of materials and information."

On-site improvements for quality enhancement involve management and supervisory levels noticing abnormalities and changes in their daily operations, investigating causes, and implementing countermeasures that transcend organizational boundaries. This document covers topics such as "The Role of Production Activities and On-site Managers," "How to Promote On-site Improvements for Quality Improvement," and "What the Business Structure Is." We encourage you to read it.

Introducing "Digital Technology Utilization for Zero Defective Outflow Measures," "Poka-Yoke Tools," and "Case Studies on Human Error Countermeasures"!

A comprehensive guide and procedure manual covering measures against human errors in manufacturing sites. In recent years, the utilization of IoT and AI has accelerated the visualization of factory information and the replacement of human tasks with machines through the introduction of robots and inspection equipment, making it an effective means for quality improvement, including the prevention of human errors. Particularly, there is a high level of interest among companies in the inspection field. Defective product leakage is something that must absolutely be avoided, but full visual inspections by human eyes inevitably lead to oversights. The relationship between the risk of defective product leakage and inspection costs raises the question of how far inspections should go... Recently, various inspection machines, including image inspection systems, have become relatively affordable, and we hope companies will consider transitioning from traditional quality control systems that rely on manual labor to a quality management system that effectively utilizes AI and IoT to achieve low costs and zero defective product leakage. [Contents] ■ Eliminating oversights in full inspections ■ Preventing operational mistakes through the use of AI and IT technologies ■ Quality management methods for zero defective product leakage ■ Poka-yoke tools (hardware/software) ■ Case studies on measures against human errors ■ Practice problems *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

I will provide a detailed explanation of the procedures for statistical analysis (t-tests, correlation analysis, regression analysis, experimental design) using MC processing data.

<Training and Seminar Planning for Young Engineers> Explanation of Practical Statistical Analysis Methods for Use in the Field Statistical Quality Control (SQC) should not be seen merely as a subject of study for statistical experts; it must be manageable enough for those conducting analyses in the manufacturing field to effectively utilize even simple methods (such as QC tools). For example, the Seven QC Tools are techniques for analyzing phenomena numerically and quantitatively, allowing anyone to quickly understand issues through visualization and making explanations easy. However, it can be quite challenging to master advanced technical problems involving hypothesis testing and estimation, correlation analysis, regression analysis, experimental design, multivariate analysis, and the Taguchi method (quality engineering). Recently, it has become possible to conduct analyses without complex calculations by using the statistical analysis functions in EXCEL. This explanatory document will provide a detailed guide on managing variability in manufacturing processes and quality improvement methods using statistical analysis techniques, specifically focusing on practical procedures for conducting statistical analyses (t-tests, correlation analysis, regression analysis, experimental design) using MC processing data.

● This is a leak testing device for small electronic components that does not use fluorinated inert liquids (PFAS-free). ● There is no longer a need for unstable visual confirmation through liquid immersion testing. It adopts a quantitative testing method that allows for stable pressure leak testing. ● It is a tabletop leak testing device specifically for gross leaks, with accuracy equal to or greater than that of liquid immersion testing. ● The detectable range is approximately 1×10⁻² Pa·m³/s to 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (varies depending on the target product). ● It is suitable for sealed structures ranging from a few millimeters to a maximum of 80 × 70 mm.
