50% reduction in overfilling! Optimize your packaging process with the statistical analysis software "Minitab" and achieve significant savings! A free trial is also available!

For improving the bagging process, the statistical analysis software Minitab is recommended. If the management of filling amounts is lax, it can lead to significant cost increases due to material waste from overfilling, and if underfilled, it can result in regulatory violations and damage to brand reputation. For example, in a case involving packaged candy, Minitab was used to reduce overfilling by more than 50%. This resulted in savings of over $1.2 million (approximately 180 million yen) in material costs annually. This achievement is due to the suppression of process variation and optimization of filling weight based on statistical analysis. Minitab is a powerful statistical analysis software that helps reduce waste while complying with government regulations and improving profits. It is particularly recommended for companies with packaging processes and has a strong track record. ■ Key Points Challenge: Increased costs from overfilling and risk of regulatory violations from underfilling. Case: A packaged candy company reduced overfilling by over 50%. Results: Saved over $1.2 million in material costs annually. Recommendation: Processes can be optimized with the statistical analysis software Minitab. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Demonstrating reliability standards is an important benchmark in the medical device industry!

You may have seen numbers such as 90/80 reliability, 95/95 reliability, 95/99 reliability, and 99/99 reliability. In the context of certainty and reliability, the first number represents certainty, and the second number represents the degree of reliability. For example, if a process achieves 95/95 certainty and reliability, it indicates that you can be 95% confident that 95% of the units in the population are good. *For detailed content of the article, you can view it in the PDF.

Under the slogan "It's natural to stick. Ideas that expand by foaming. Unprecedented concepts," we will showcase our foaming hot melt applicator "MICRON+FOAM" with a focus on foaming adhesion. We plan to distribute coating samples, so please be sure to stop by our booth.

● This is a leak testing device for small electronic components that does not use fluorinated inert liquids (PFAS-free). ● There is no longer a need for unstable visual confirmation through liquid immersion testing. It adopts a quantitative testing method that allows for stable pressure leak testing. ● It is a tabletop leak testing device specifically for gross leaks, with accuracy equal to or greater than that of liquid immersion testing. ● The detectable range is approximately 1×10⁻² Pa·m³/s to 1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (varies depending on the target product). ● It is suitable for sealed structures ranging from a few millimeters to a maximum of 80 × 70 mm.

The "Mechanical Stitch Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact to the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

Do you have any concerns or requests regarding wired bed exit sensors? × Tangling and tripping of wired cables × Cable disconnection or damage × Worry about forgetting to turn on the switch after temporarily stopping the sensor. × Want to be notified of bed exit even from a location away from the nurse call outlet. Such concerns can be resolved simply by connecting to a wireless set linked to the nurse call system! Our nurse call linked wireless set allows you to connect bed exit sensors like "Ugo-kun," "Foldable Thin Matta-kun," "Ayumi-chan," and "Just Place Pole-kun" to transmitters and receivers, reducing wiring around the bed, alleviating concerns about tripping and falling due to cables, and contributing to a tidier work environment. Furthermore, it enables the use of bed exit sensors even from locations away from the nurse call outlet, allowing for more flexible equipment placement.
