Highlighting whether it is possible to accommodate the assumed volume and any issues related to it.

By utilizing computer simulation in the design and improvement of logistics operations, which have been previously conducted based on "experience and intuition," it is now possible to anticipate the effects in advance and quantitatively, thereby obtaining valuable information for decision-making. For more details, please contact us.

• Production Management System

Conducted simulations using actual shipping and receiving data on the model reproduced on RaLC.

To utilize the results of the logistics ABC (Activity Based Costing) analysis for work improvement, we will input location data (such as product names and quantities) from the WMS (Warehouse Management System) into a model recreated on RaLC and conduct simulations using actual inbound and outbound shipping data. This will allow us to verify the extent of the impact of the flow analysis results and location changes. For more details, please contact us.

Effectively promote the strengths of our warehouse operations through animation on RaLC.

You can effectively showcase the strengths of your company's warehouse operations, such as managing shipping times, inventory management, and operational innovations, through animations on RaLC. It can also be used to explain the basis of the presented estimates and the validity of costs. For internal approvals during the establishment of new centers or layout changes, you can attach the simulation results from RaLC to your proposal documents, allowing stakeholders to understand the effects. For more details, please contact us.

Visualization of investment effects and improvement effects! 3D layout design simulator RaAP.

RaAP (Rapid Analysis and Planning) enables the analysis and visualization of manufacturing site layouts, equipment, personnel, processes, and workflows. By applying strategic methods that utilize 3D simulation technology, it guides customers in optimizing their operations, uncovering improvement points hidden in manufacturing environments such as factories and production lines, in addition to relying on intuition and experience. Improving challenges in manufacturing often incurs "time" and "cost." When attempting to implement the CAP-Do cycle in the field, there are many cases where things do not go smoothly. RaAP is widely used as a tool for improvement verification in production technology and manufacturing departments. By instantly displaying production equipment, worker procedures, and workflows in 3D from the entire manufacturing site on a computer, it makes problems and areas for improvement more visible, promoting integration between management and the field.

Komatsu puts into practice! A case filled with know-how that achieved surprising cost reduction and productivity improvement is available for free download.

Komatsu, a leader in construction and heavy machinery worldwide under the "KOMATSU" brand, is focused on improving quality, reliability, and production efficiency by harnessing the power of identifying challenges on-site (on-site capability). To visualize the diverse range of vehicle types and specifications produced, and to quickly and accurately grasp improvement opportunities, the use of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) is essential. Since 2000, we have implemented the logistics improvement system "RaLC" from CEC, utilizing it in the logistics system department for proposals and in the production technology department for optimizing production line verification. Since April 2010, by introducing CEC's logistics improvement system "RaLC," we have been able to monitor the position and movement of forklifts in real-time. By visualizing the logistics vehicles operating within the facility, we aim to achieve continuous logistics improvement, further cost reduction, and increased productivity. ■We will also hold seminars related to this case. You can apply through the survey at the bottom■

● To determine the sealing and waterproofing of sealed products based on pressure changes, it is not necessary to conduct tests that involve spraying water on the product or immersing it in water. ● Once the product is placed in a dedicated fixture within the inspection device, waterproofing can be quantitatively confirmed through automatic measurement. ● The target product size is W 300 × D 210 × H 100 mm or smaller. ● The target products include automotive cameras, smartphones, ECUs, small motors, and other packaging containers, and are effective for any products that require confirmation of sealing, waterproofing, and airtightness. ● For product specifications and details, please contact us.

In battery manufacturing lines, if components containing copper are used, there is a possibility that metal powder may mix in, dissolve, ionize, and pass through the separator, causing a malfunction that connects the positive and negative electrodes. Such minute metal powders may not be detected during pre-shipment inspections, and even if they are found, they can lead to various issues, such as the need to increase inspection processes to detect them. Therefore, Fukuda has developed a copper-free (all stainless steel) air leak tester that can be safely used in the production lines of battery manufacturers and secondary battery manufacturing equipment manufacturers.
