Notice of Joint Research Report and Seminar Presentation with Ehime University (JPCA Show 2024 / 2024 Microelectronics Show)

Programming for FPGAs and special performance tests such as BST can be handled with a flying probe tester.

This is an option that equips the underside operating axis of the APT-1600FD series with a dedicated fixture lifting mechanism. It allows for special inspections connected to external devices, such as Boundary Scan Tests (BST), as well as writing to and reading logs from ICs, to be performed in parallel with in-circuit testing. *For an image of the operation, please refer to the YouTube video.

The Takaya APT series is a board inspection device capable of industry-leading ultra-fast in-circuit testing.

One method for efficiently mass-producing products is the "line production method," which arranges machinery in order of the production process. This method excels in the productivity of single products and is adopted in many manufacturing sites. The incorporation of an inspection process into this line production method is referred to as "inline inspection." Takaya's flying probe testers have models that can accommodate this "inline inspection" by automatically transporting circuit boards on a conveyor. By collaborating with loaders, unloaders, and inversion machines through SMEMA, it enables automated and unmanned inspection even with large quantities of circuit boards. Additionally, when used in conjunction with other companies' 3D-AOI (automated optical inspection machines), the flying probe testers can detect issues such as microbridges that cannot be identified through visual inspection alone. This synergy leverages the strengths of each system, resulting in the elimination of false reports, improved inspection capabilities, and increased speed. If you are facing challenges with full electrical inspection (ICT) of mass-produced circuit boards, please consider Takaya's APT series, which allows for easy line switching without the need for fixtures.

Exhibiting at Nepcon 2024 from January 24! Achieving interoperability between industrial equipment and MES systems!

OPC UA (OPC Unified Architecture) is an open international standard developed for safe and reliable data exchange in industries such as industrial automation. It was announced by the OPC Foundation in 2008 and later standardized as IEC62541. It allows for secure and highly reliable data exchange across different types of devices, operating systems, and manufacturers, making it recommended as the standard communication for Industrie 4.0 and increasingly adopted worldwide. Additionally, it is aligned with the international standard for PLCs, IEC61131-3, which provides the advantage of reliably exchanging information from the manufacturing site with higher-level monitoring control systems and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES). In response to this trend, Takaya has prepared an option to equip the APT series of flying probe testers with an OPC UA server. We are working to promote the spread of industrial IoT standards that bridge FA equipment and IT.

We will be exhibiting at the "Kyushu Printing Information Industry Exhibition 2026" held at the Fukuoka International Center. During the event, we will showcase various products. We invite all related parties to come together and visit us. 【Suppliers】 ・Laser-X

This year, Toyota Kikan will exhibit at the Toyota Business Fair. We will introduce products that are useful for heatstroke prevention and more. Our top recommendation is SPACECOOL. Please feel free to visit our booth! SPACECOOL is an "eco-friendly cooling solution" essential for the future of our planet's environment! Be sure to check it out. Also, take a look at the basic knowledge for heat prevention in factories moving forward.

In the operation of drawings, do you face challenges such as "taking too long to find," "uncertainty about whether it's the latest version," or "high likelihood of confirmation errors"? By utilizing CADSUPER's barcode function (optional), you can reliably connect drawings and information, allowing for a smooth advancement of DX in drawing utilization. In this seminar, we will introduce how using barcodes can change: - Drawing management and search - Confirmation and cross-checking tasks - Information collaboration with the field This content is recommended not only for existing users but also for those considering improving the efficiency of drawing operations and reducing errors.

Daitō Shikō Co., Ltd. will be exhibiting at the "International Fire and Disaster Prevention Exhibition" held at Shirakawa Park in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, from Thursday, May 28, 2026. At the exhibition venue, we plan to showcase goods that are perfect for fire prevention events and recruitment activities for members. If you are looking for SP tools, promotional items, or novelties, please be sure to visit our booth.

[Speaker] Miho Ko Shimada, Partner Attorney, Mori Hamada & Matsumoto Law Firm, Foreign Law Joint Enterprise [Key Lecture Content] The movement towards the implementation of CCS, which is positioned as an essential technology for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries, is gaining momentum in Japan. Among the "advanced CCS projects" selected for business commencement in the early 2030s, some pipeline projects have progressed to the exploratory drilling stage. For shipping transport projects, discussions are underway to create mechanisms for clustering CO2 sources and improving shipping transport efficiency. In this seminar, following the full enforcement of the CCS Business Act on May 22, we will organize the current state of the business environment related to CCS and examine the latest discussions at the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy and the Ministry of the Environment (based on information available at the time of the event) from a legal perspective as we consider the shape of CCS projects leading to Final Investment Decision (FID). [Lecture Items] 1. Current state of the business environment related to CCS 2. Overview of the CCS Business Act 3. Overview of the cost difference support system for CCS projects (pipelines) 4. Structural considerations through the CCS value chain 5. Q&A / Business card exchange
