Announcement of the Grand Prize Winner of the "Kyoto Chie Entrepreneur Award 2023"

Utilization of AI for KY (Danger Prediction) activities - AI suggests labor accident cases and danger points, improving workers' risk sensitivity and reducing labor accident risks.

HACARUS Workplace Safety for KY (HACARUS KY) is an application that allows the creation of KY sheets on smartphones, tablets, and PCs. AI displays labor accident risks and similar labor accident cases tailored to the specific conditions of each site, enabling anyone to easily conduct effective KY activities.

AI automatically detects defects in metal parts and other items using only good products! AI visual inspection is now possible for complex shapes like die-castings, which could only be inspected visually before.

The AI visual inspection system "HACARUS Check" is an all-in-one package that automatically detects defects in workpieces using "collaborative robots + cameras with lighting + high-performance AI." It can be implemented as a one-stop solution from imaging with robots and cameras to AI's OK/NG judgment. With the ability to conduct 360-degree inspections, it is suitable for complex-shaped workpieces such as die-cast and machined products, achieving reductions in inspection labor and standardization of quality. ■ Target Workpieces Small automotive parts, die-casting, metalworking and processing, press processing, plating, bearings, textiles, rubber, resin, plastics, ceramics, etc. ■ Features 1. 360-Degree Inspection The 6-axis robotic arm, illuminated ring lighting, and rotating lift platform work together to detect defects in hard-to-image areas. 2. Small Quantity, Good Quality, Fast Learning AI Thanks to HACARUS's unique AI technology, there is no need to collect defective product data; a high-precision AI can be quickly built from a small amount of good product data. 3. Easy Installation Compact design, operates on 100V power supply. Overall dimensions: 1555mm × 740mm × 860mm (fixed with caster-mounted adjusters). *For more details, please visit the product's special website below.⬇︎

Usable on-site! HACARUS's "Small Quantity Quality Product Speed Learning" AI Visual Inspection Software

HACARUS Check AI software enables high-precision visual inspections using AI. Our uniquely developed "small quantity good product speed learning" AI does not require defective product data or a GPU. It excels in inspections that were difficult with traditional rule-based methods, such as for metal plates, rubber products, fabric materials, and leather materials, and can be used without any knowledge of AI. If you are struggling with visual inspections or have existing inspection equipment and are having trouble handling AI, please feel free to contact us. If you do not have an imaging device, we can provide suggestions. ■ Features - High precision results with a small amount of good product data: just a few dozen good product images are sufficient, with learning time of only a few minutes. - Understandable AI reasoning: the reasoning behind decisions can be explained, allowing for further application and development. - Fast and low power consumption: no GPU required, can be executed in your existing environment. <Software Pricing> First year: 3 million yen Subsequent years: 960,000 yen/year

JOHNAN has released a video that clearly explains the implementation technology for stretchable films, which are expected to be utilized in wearable devices and medical equipment. In the video, you can see how the film, which has excellent elasticity, stretches and contracts. Please check our high technological capabilities and the flexible characteristics that are useful for product development. We hope this will help you generate new ideas in product development. ▼You can watch the video here [Link to the implementation page for stretchable films] https://www.johnan.com/dms/mounting/filmdevic/stretchable/

"Because it's an invisible place, we won't overlook it." Japan's climate is characterized by high temperatures and humidity, and particularly after typhoons and heavy rains, the conditions can be harsh for homes. It's not just the roofs and exterior walls that are affected by rain and wind. The area beneath the floor is actually the most susceptible and often overlooked point. This time, we will explain the "checkpoints for under the floor" that should be confirmed after a typhoon or heavy rain, the "responses" if abnormalities are found, and measures for preventing recurrence. [Table of Contents] ■ Why is underfloor checking necessary? ■ Checkpoints to confirm after a typhoon or heavy rain ■ Responses when damage is discovered ■ Points for preventing recurrence ■ Suggestions from Seihou Products ■ Summary Please be sure to read the [related materials] and [related links]. ↓ ↓ ↓

Explosion-proof motors available in stock We will deliver within 7 days to meet your delivery schedule. 【What is an explosion-proof motor?】 In factories and plants, flammable gases and vapors are present. When these mix with air and come into contact with an ignition source, an explosion or fire can occur. This motor is designed with measures to eliminate such ignition sources. 【Available stock models】 ■ Pressure-resistant explosion-proof motors, explosion-proof grade d2G4 - Foot-mounted type, output 0.4 to 3.7 kW, 4 poles - Flange type, output 0.4 to 0.75 kW, 4 poles ■ Increased safety explosion-proof motors, explosion-proof grade eG3 - Foot-mounted type, output 0.2 to 0.75 kW, 2 and 4 poles - Flange type, output 0.2 to 0.75 kW, 2 and 4 poles

As part of the "Hometown Ibara Future Creation Human Resource Development Project," we welcomed local elementary and middle school students to the special summer program "Ibara Job Exploration Tour 2025," a collaboration between the Ibara City Chamber of Commerce and the Corporate Branding Committee. We conducted a presentation that clearly and enjoyably introduced how our technology supports society, allowing the children to learn about the appeal of manufacturing and the significance of working while interacting with actual devices and products. Through this initiative, we hope to deepen our connection with the community and nurture the curiosity of the children who will carry the future. We sincerely thank everyone who participated, as well as all those involved in planning and organizing the event.
