【March 11 (Tuesday) to March 14 (Friday), 2025】Notice of participation in 'FOODEX JAPAN 2025 50th International Food and Beverage Exhibition'

Plastic, food, flour milling, semiconductors, secondary batteries, catalysts, glass, clay... essential for various industries' raw materials and products! High-precision foreign matter removal and iron removal equipment.

The Great Magnet is a specialized machine designed to remove magnetic foreign substances from powder materials. It uses a powerful rod-shaped magnet and is designed to efficiently bring the passing raw material powder into contact with the magnet, allowing for the precise removal of tiny iron particles, fine iron powder, stainless steel powder, and other magnetic contaminants present in the raw materials. The magnets used can be selected from various types, with the strongest capable of generating a magnetic force exceeding 17,000 gauss (1.7 tesla) at the surface. Additionally, the magnetic poles are designed to be as close together as possible, resulting in higher removal efficiency compared to other products with wider pole gaps. The standard surface material is SUS304, but considering resistance to acid, alkali, and chemicals, it can also be manufactured in various materials such as SUS316, SUS316L, titanium, and others upon consultation. Surface hardening treatment can also be applied to enhance wear resistance. Heat resistance can also be incorporated into the magnets, allowing for the production of products that can be used in high-temperature environments up to 380 degrees. Connections and fittings with upstream and downstream equipment can be designed and manufactured as needed upon consultation. Our company has accumulated a significant amount of experience, and we will respond appropriately to your inquiries. Please feel free to consult with us.

Ichikawa Techno Fabrics Co., Ltd. will be exhibiting at the "New Functional Materials Exhibition 2026" held at Tokyo Big Sight. This exhibition will bring together many products and technologies essential for manufacturing, from materials to processing and devices. Numerous visitors with specific needs seeking solutions to various challenges will attend. Collaboration proposals among exhibitors, as well as between visitors and exhibitors, will also be active. At our booth, we plan to showcase "industrial felt." We look forward to your visit.

The winners of the 8th "Safety Labeling and Human Development Contest" hosted by Max Corporation have been decided. Along with this award ceremony, we will hold a "Safety Exchange Meeting" where each company will present and share their daily safety activities. 【Agenda (Tentative)】 - Award ceremony for the 8th "Safety Labeling and Human Development Contest" - Report on safety activities (from two winning companies) - Lecture on workplace safety activities - Exchange of information on safety activities and labeling, etc. This is a valuable opportunity to learn about the initiatives and safety labeling of other companies! We encourage your participation.

The Daigaku Art and Design Exhibition is a joint exhibition by university students studying art and engineering from four universities in Japan. In 2025, it will be held in Nagoya. Natek is sponsoring the Daigaku Art and Design Exhibition 2025 to support the activities of students who will be responsible for Japan's future manufacturing. We look forward to your visit.

When we look around us, we see various areas such as housing, home appliances, automobiles, miscellaneous goods, and sports equipment filled with many plastic materials like synthetic fibers, films, bottles, and resin products. However, the concept of modern polymer materials, specifically the idea of polymers (macromolecules) connected by covalent bonds, was not established just 100 years ago. Therefore, it can be said that in less than a century, numerous plastic materials with various characteristics have been developed and rapidly integrated into our lives. Due to the short history and the diversity of materials, there are various challenges encountered when dealing with plastic materials, and the role of analytical technicians in solving these issues is significant. In this course, we will explain important and fundamental points over two sessions, focusing on the field of resin materials, not only for analytical technicians but also for engineers who create products using plastic materials and those who use plastic products to deepen their understanding. In the first session, which serves as a foundational overview, we will discuss the characteristics of representative plastic materials, including molecular structure and physical properties, characteristics and applications, and manufacturing methods, to aid in the understanding of plastic materials.

When we look around us, we see that various areas such as housing, home appliances, automobiles, miscellaneous goods, and sports equipment are overflowing with many plastic materials like synthetic fibers, films, bottles, and resin products. However, 100 years ago, the concept of modern polymer materials, specifically the idea of polymers (macromolecules) connected by covalent bonds, had not yet been established. Therefore, it can be said that in just under a century, numerous plastic materials with various characteristics have been developed and rapidly integrated into our lives. Due to the short history and the diversity of materials, there are various challenges encountered when handling plastic materials, but the role of analytical technicians in solving these issues is significant. Following the previous foundational edition, this second application edition will explain polymer multiphase materials (such as polymer alloys, compounds, and resin composites) and molding techniques, as well as environmental issues surrounding plastic materials, in order to enhance the practical value of plastic materials.
