Achieve depalletization of cardboard and mesh pallets with a single hand!

The Kenos Gripper series from Piab has fulfilled numerous requests for handling "cardboard and pallets with one hand." However, due to the limited adhesive surface of plastic pallets, it was not possible to meet all requests. The KENOS KVGL.1000.300.N405.CVM.2S4.SHXXX features a foam section that adheres to cardboard, while the claw parts at both ends securely hold the pallet. It can handle both palletizing and depalletizing with one hand. (Piab Japan Co., Ltd.)

[Speaker] Ryo Shu, President and CEO of Marketing Eyes Inc. [Key Lecture Content] In 2026, AI will become the "eyes" of customers, allowing them to compare and select before meeting. BtoB sales will find it increasingly difficult to achieve results through "selling." This lecture will focus on designing how to be "chosen," which influences sales, covering (1) customer understanding (surface intentions, true feelings, latent desires), (2) hypothesis development (preparing to decide the outcome before negotiations, creating materials to advance internal approvals, positioning for high added value), and (3) organizational strength (eliminating dependency on individuals to create a successful cycle), illustrated with examples of corporate successes and failures. Please apply the three takeaway sheets to your actions starting tomorrow. [Lecture Items] 1. Why will traditional "sales" no longer be effective in 2026? 2. Enhancing customer understanding - how to capture their hearts. 3. Developing strategic planning skills - how to design by working backward from goals. 4. Organizational strength (eliminating dependency on individuals and creating reproducible models). 5. Conclusion. 6. Q&A.

Today, the manufacturing site is facing a labor shortage. Therefore, it cannot function without part-time workers, temporary employees, and foreign nationals. This is not limited to the manufacturing sector. The key is how to efficiently and smoothly train these individuals in a short period to produce quality products through actual work. Simply showing a video does not count as teaching. "Watch this video." "If you don't understand, ask." New employees often feel they cannot ask questions even when they don't understand, and they may say, "It's just like the video" even if they make mistakes. If the other person does not remember, it is because you have not taught them. This seminar will help you acquire effective teaching methods and improve the skills of those who teach. As a result, workers on the shop floor will perform tasks following unified procedures, significantly enhancing quality and productivity. Even new employees or foreign workers can become immediate assets in a short period. By honing the "ability to teach," we will create a system that ensures workers adhere to the established procedures and do not revert to old habits. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

【Utilization of Flow Data for Beginners】 "What can be done? What are the costs?" Understand the overall picture, examples, demos, and pricing in just 30 minutes! Are you interested in utilizing flow data but have questions like, "Where should I start?" or "I can't envision the implementation effects and costs"? Flow data is gaining attention in various fields such as store planning, area marketing, and promotional measures. This seminar is a "mini introductory seminar" designed to resolve the questions of busy individuals who feel they can't take the first step due to a lack of specific information in just 30 minutes. We will explain the "overall picture" of flow analysis services, "specific utilization scenarios," and "cost concerns" in easy-to-understand terms. Additionally, we will include a demonstration using actual service screens to concretely introduce the image of utilization after implementation and the process leading up to it.
