Our company specializes in packaging materials and machines focused on bag sealing. From small bags to large bags, you can trust us with your bag bundling needs! We will provide optimal customization and proposals according to your requirements.

• Binding/Packing Machine

Improving the efficiency of the bagging process for fruits and vegetables and reducing the burden on operators! We are currently providing examples and proposal materials for a system that combines a bag opening machine and a closure binding machine.

By utilizing our "Model 865 Automatic Bundling System," it is possible to significantly reduce the packaging process for fresh produce. This document presents a proposal for a fresh produce packaging line using the familiar "Bag Closure" commonly used for bread fasteners and an automatic bundling machine. The document introduces the packaging line from bagging to boxing. It enables improved work efficiency, reduced operator burden, and standardized operations. 【Contents of the Document (Partial)】*Detailed explanations are provided with diagrams in the document. <Packaging Processing Capacity> Up to 30 bags per minute <Proposed Line Configuration> ■ Quick Lock Model 865 Automatic Bundling System - Stand with bundler height adjustment function - Bundling conveyor 300W x 3,000L *Options Bag top trimmer system / Cold printer ■ Bag Opener (Bag Unpacking Machine) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Binding/Packing Machine

By attaching it to bags of food containing multiple items, the convenience of your products will be enhanced, and it will also help reduce food waste.

Familiar as the fastener for bread bags, the "Bag Closure" allows for repeated opening and closing. *While it may be strongly associated with "something that secures bread bags," it is actively used in various fields such as vegetables, fruits, noodles, and processed foods. **Benefits for Food Companies** Using machines to quickly carry out bag sealing operations improves operational efficiency and reduces burdens. **Benefits for Consumers** It is convenient for storing food that cannot be consumed in one sitting, as it allows for easy opening and closing of bags, helping to reduce food waste. Closures are attached to bags by food companies and passed on to consumers. The closures are shipped in a roll form, so by setting them in a dedicated sealing machine, sealing can be done smoothly at high speed. *It is also possible to manually cut and attach the closures to bags without using a sealing machine. We offer a wide variety of sizes and color options. *Environmentally friendly products are also available. We will propose closures and sealing machines that meet your needs according to the type of bag, size, product weight, and packaging line layout.

[Instructor] Hiroto Hayashi, Attorney at Law, New York State, Mori Hamada & Matsumoto Law Firm, Foreign Law Joint Enterprise [Key Lecture Content] Recently, batteries are expected to serve as a balancing power source for the realization of renewable energy as a primary power source. Due to changes in the business environment brought about by market development and government support measures, opportunities in the battery business are expanding. For grid-connected batteries, there are multiple options for long-term decarbonization power source auctions, tolling models, and merchant models, and the points of project development vary depending on the offtake method. Additionally, with the spread of the FIP system, the installation of batteries alongside renewable energy generation facilities is also progressing. In this lecture, we will explain the systems related to batteries, as well as key points for contract creation and negotiation, and financing necessary to steadily advance projects. We will also outline the challenges and prospects for project development and project finance formation according to each offtake scheme.

[Lecturer] Hideo Yamada, Ph.D. Honorary Professor, Waseda University Visiting Professor, Business Breakthrough University Graduate School [Key Lecture Content] Companies face various trade-offs (dilemmas) such as quality vs. cost, inventory levels vs. service levels, and standardization vs. differentiation. Traditionally, companies have responded to trade-offs by (1) finding a balance or (2) prioritizing one over the other. However, this does not lead to fundamental solutions. In this lecture, I will propose a third method that is neither balancing nor prioritizing. Using case studies from over 50 Japanese companies, I will explain it in an easy-to-understand manner. If we can turn long-standing trade-offs into trade-ons (coexistence), business opportunities will arise. [Lecture Topics] 1. What is a trade-off? 2. Trade-offs between customers and companies 3. Trade-offs within companies 4. Trade-offs within customers 5. How to turn trade-offs into trade-ons 6. Steps for exploration 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Lecturers] Corporate Partner, Nishimura & Asahi Law Office Osaka, Mr. Satoshi Niki Associate, Nishimura & Asahi Law Office - Foreign Law Joint Enterprise, Mr. Shu Numazawa [Key Lecture Content] In recent years, the diversification of defense cooperation and advancements in dual-use technology have significantly changed the management and international sharing of advanced technologies. This lecture will clarify the basic structure of Article 3 of the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement and the significance of "similar treatment," while explaining the institutional transformation brought about by the introduction of the non-public patent application system under the Economic Security Promotion Act. Furthermore, considering the relationship between this system and the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement, we will examine how to reposition the patent applications and secrecy management of defense-related technologies within the context of expanding international joint research and multilateral defense cooperation. [Lecture Items] 1. Diversification of defense cooperation and advancements in dual-use technology 2. Basic structure of Article 3 of the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement 3. Practical application of "similar treatment" 4. Introduction of the non-public patent system (Economic Security Promotion Act) 5.
