Seminar on 'Analysis and Utilization of Reliability Data Using Weibull Analysis' to be held on May 10 (Wednesday)

Calculate equipment utilization rates from MTBF/MTTF and actual operating information! It is also possible to analyze how the utilization rate changes when switching to new equipment!

The AWB (Availability Workbench) can calculate the operating rates and lifecycle costs of production lines and production equipment based on equipment information (Note 1), and the following effects can be expected: ■ Expected Effects 1. Calculation of the expected operating rate as a production line when introducing new equipment. 2. Setting targets for each piece of equipment to meet the operating rate goals established in the production plan. 3. Estimation of vulnerable areas in production equipment and production lines and corresponding measures. Note 1: Examples of input equipment information - Degradation curves (Note 2) - Items related to maintenance - Required personnel - Operation costs, etc. Note 2: Can also be substituted with MTTF/MTBF or failure performance data.

Maximizing operational efficiency and minimizing costs through maintenance cycle calculations. Supported by experts in equipment management and failure analysis.

The "Availability Workbench (AWB)" is software that calculates the failure probability and lifespan of equipment based on equipment configuration, work performance, and failure history information, supporting maintenance-related tasks. It can seamlessly integrate with various analysis tools, ERP, and EAM, allowing for calculations from failure rates to lifecycle costs. 【Targeted Tasks】 ■ Evaluation of equipment failure characteristics and lifespan under in-house installation environments and usage conditions ■ Calculation of quantitative values to determine maintenance cycles ■ Verification of the comprehensiveness of tasks and maintenance cycles ■ Optimization of combinations of various tasks ■ Consideration of costs, operational rates, necessary spare parts, and required personnel due to maintenance implementation ■ Determination of maintenance methods based on risk ■ Creation of medium- to long-term maintenance plans based on LCC evaluation *You can view materials introducing the functions via the download button below.

In recent years, the implementation of maintenance DX to achieve "non-stop factories" has become an urgent necessity in manufacturing sites. Amid the trend of factory IoT and data utilization, the use of remote I/O, which can remotely aggregate and collect sensor information and control signals from equipment and sensors dispersed inside and outside the factory, is gaining importance as a foundation for predictive maintenance and condition monitoring. On the other hand, the installation environment for remote I/O is not necessarily limited to control panels or well-conditioned factory interiors. There is an increasing need to collect data in harsh environments, such as outdoor equipment and conditions involving high temperatures, low temperatures, vibrations, and strong electrical noise. Conventional remote I/O systems have struggled to operate stably under such conditions, requiring measures like installation location constraints and additional protective enclosures. Environmentally robust remote I/O with wide temperature support and noise resistance can address these challenges, enabling the expansion of the scope of factory IoT and predictive maintenance to outdoor and remote equipment. In this seminar, we will introduce the lineup of Contec's environmentally robust remote I/O, the "CONPROSYS(R) Robust I/O Series," which includes a total of 23 products.

[Lecturers] Nishimura & Asahi Law Offices, Foreign Law Joint Enterprise Attorney and Associate Iku Akamatsu Attorney and Associate Yasukazu Yamazaki (Note: "Saki" is a variant character) [Key Lecture Content] In the logistics sector and other areas, discussions are underway regarding the social implementation of drone flight routes. Drone flight routes involve various stakeholders, including drone route operators, drone operation businesses, surrounding municipalities, and ground-related parties, who collaborate and divide roles to realize these routes. Therefore, drone route operators and businesses utilizing drone routes need to enter into contracts regarding the use of drone routes with relevant parties, clarify roles, and implement appropriate risk management. This lecture will explain the legal points that must be considered when entering into contracts for the use of drone flight routes. [Lecture Items] 1. Overview of drone flight routes and recent examination status 2. Stakeholders and their roles related to drone flight routes 3. Items to consider specifying in contracts for the use of drone flight routes 4. Legal points to be aware of in contracts for the use of drone flight routes 5. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Speaker] Keiichi Koga, Senior Development Manager, Innovation Strategy Center, Japan Research Institute, Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] After the transition to the Trump administration, significant changes have emerged in the global business environment concerning the oceans, particularly regarding decarbonization and nature conservation. On the other hand, considering the accumulation of knowledge and shared understanding of the realities of the marine environment, what growth strategies should companies outline? In the financial sector, which is focusing on the expansion of the blue economy, there is a growing recognition that advancing nature-positive businesses can lead to sustainable corporate value enhancement. The sectors related to the ocean encompass not only fisheries and shipping but also a wide range of areas such as water pollution, plastic waste, tourism, and energy-related industries. This lecture will discuss the seeds for considering how businesses can transform. [Lecture Items] 1. The Blue Economy so far 2. International Trends 3. Financing Trends related to the Blue Economy 4. Directions for Business Transformation based on the Blue Economy 5. Case Studies 6. Q&A / Business Card Exchange
