Blog article "Improving Reduction of Forklift Numbers through Flow Analysis!"

Introduction of case studies for the implementation of IoT tools for forklift traffic flow acquisition! A table of implementation results is also included.

This document introduces a case study that addresses the reduction of forklift numbers using a system called "Rojitan Fork," which utilizes beacons and sensors. It provides detailed explanations of the reasons for implementation, the use of two types of beacons and load sensors, and the duration of the implementation. Additionally, it includes a table of implementation results, clearly presenting information such as the implementation sites, number of units, challenges and effects, and the number of units reduced. [Contents] ■ Is one forklift per person really necessary? ■ The mechanism of Rojitan Fork ■ Implementation of Rojitan Fork ■ Ten forklifts with an operating rate of less than 10% ■ Visualization of forklift movement paths ■ KPIs presented by Rojitan Fork *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Do we really need the current number of forklifts?

Forklifts are used in factories and logistics warehouses for handling and transporting large cargo and pallets that cannot be managed manually. However, have site managers ever noticed that there are forklifts that are not in operation when they look around the site? Many people may wonder, "Is the current number really necessary?" or "Could we reduce the number a bit more?" when they see such a situation. With typical forklifts, it is only possible to check the operating hours using an hour meter, and it is not possible to grasp the operational status by time slots, the locations of travel, or the ratio of empty runs to loaded runs. This time, we will introduce a case where a housing equipment manufacturer worked on reducing the number of forklifts using a system called "Rojitan Fork" that utilizes beacons and sensors. *For more details about the blog, please refer to the related link.

[April 15 (Tuesday) 14:00~14:50 Free Online Seminar] Do we really need the current number of forklifts?

Forklifts are used in factories and logistics warehouses for handling and transporting large cargo and pallets that cannot be managed manually. However, when site managers look over the area, they may notice that some forklifts are not in operation. When seeing such a situation, many people might wonder, "Is the current number really necessary?" or "Wouldn't it be okay to reduce the number a bit?" Generally, with standard forklifts, one can only check the operating hours using the hour meter, and it is not possible to grasp the operational status by time slots, the locations traveled, or the ratio of empty runs to loaded runs. In this free online seminar, we will introduce a case study that uses a system called "Rojitan Fork" utilizing Visual Slam to understand the movement lines and utilization rates of forklifts and work on reducing the number of units. [Free Online Seminar Overview] ■ Date and Time: April 15 (Tuesday) 14:00 - 14:50 *Live questions will be accepted ■ Cost: Free *For more details, please check the seminar details from the link below or feel free to contact us.

The "Mechanical Stitching 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 on the base material. Repairs can be carried out even 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.

● 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.

In February of this year, we inquired about "paperlogic" using the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's gray zone resolution system regarding the "provision of electronic contract services to the construction industry," and received a response stating that "paperlogic meets the standards related to construction contracts under the Construction Business Act Enforcement Regulations (Article 13-4, Paragraph 1, Item 1 (h) and Paragraph 2)." ◆ Accelerating DX in the Construction Industry with 'Official Approval' The construction industry faces challenges in digitizing contract operations due to the complexity of contracts, the presence of numerous stakeholders, and legal requirements and security concerns. However, due to the nature of the business, detailed contract operations occur frequently in the construction industry. Therefore, by digitizing contract operations, this sector can benefit significantly from cost reductions, such as stamp duty and labor costs, as well as shortened timeframes for contract execution. ◆ Package Plans for the Construction Industry Also Available paperlogic offers the 'paperlogic Construction Document DX Pocket' to facilitate smoother transactions between general contractors and partner companies.
