Invitation to Exhibit at the Metal Forming Machinery Exhibition MF-TOKYO 2025

Live demonstration at MF-TOKYO 2025 [Video now available] Capable of processing internal threads and bag nuts with overwhelming productivity.

A tapping machine that uses cutting or rolling taps to process internal threads. It was developed by HS-ASPE, a subsidiary of the Italian global parts former manufacturer SACMA, as a secondary processing machine for cold forged products. Due to its reversible spindle design, it can accommodate a wide range of workpieces, including through nuts and blind nuts. It boasts a very high production capacity, capable of processing 200 workpieces per minute for M2-M12 threads in the T10-HC model. Exhibition Information: At MF-TOKYO 2025, the HS ASPE tapping machine model "T10-S" will be on display. In our booth, we will also introduce a compound 5-stage former that can perform cold forming and external thread rolling in one cycle, as well as a flat die thread rolling machine.

SACMA Group's "Cold Former," a productivity-enhancing solution that the world can be proud of.

SACMA has chosen to produce all components in-house, aiming to improve the total quality of production across the entire SACMA group. To achieve this, they are introducing the most modern and advanced production equipment available in the current market. Before stocking all products in the warehouse, they perform strict checks to ensure maximum compatibility and suitability of all spare parts. The proactive adoption of high-tensile steel, appropriate hardening processes, polishing, and final finishing through wrapping contribute to the high reliability, productivity, and economic efficiency of SACMA machines. The concept of enabling tool changes in the shortest possible time is essential for adapting to small lot production that breaks the conventional norms of the cold forming industry and realizing further competitive productivity. In developing the tool change system, SACMA does not allow compromises that would undermine the rigidity and power characteristics of the basic machine itself. The model featuring the quick tool change system, referred to as "CR," is standard equipment for header sizes 3, 4, 5, and 6, allowing for easy attachment and detachment of the hydraulic clamp dive lock, punch block bolster, and transport arm integrated unit.

Innovative solutions, a new concept in screw rolling centers, eliminating manual work, that is, complete computerization.

A flexible production system is an important factor in developing new markets. Production using highly customized equipment, tailored to customer needs and strategies, is a key element. One of the solutions proposed by Ingramatic is the screw rolling center, which is designed for high flexibility and aims to provide agile production equipment that meets diverse market demands with a single production unit. It can be applied to screw rolling on blanks after heat treatment, as well as the production of (grooved) special blanks and stud bolts. To accommodate these various products, Ingramatic has equipped the system with different loading systems to enable shared production of standard bolts and stud bolts with a single machine. The machine features a vibration feeder for standard bolts and a tube-type supply system dedicated to feeding stud bolt blanks, along with guide rails that cater to both types.

We will be exhibiting at the "Automotive World Nagoya" held at Aichi Sky Expo in Aichi Prefecture. New technologies on cutting-edge themes in the automotive industry, such as autonomous driving, vehicle electrification, connected cars, and lightweighting, will be showcased all in one place. It will be an excellent opportunity for business discussions and technical consultations with automobile manufacturers, auto parts manufacturers, and suppliers from the Chubu and Kinki regions. We sincerely look forward to your visit.

[Instructor] Miki Yoshinobu, President and CEO of Toraizu Co., Ltd. (Former Chief of Staff at SoftBank) [Key Lecture Content] During his time as Chief of Staff at SoftBank, the instructor developed a "super practical project management technique to reach goals in the shortest and fastest way" after being given numerous challenging projects by President Masayoshi Son. "This project management skill is not something that is only necessary for special projects. In today's rapidly changing environment, routine work is fundamentally disappearing. It is becoming essential to continuously reassess everything from a zero-based perspective. In other words, whether it's creating materials requested by a superior or engaging in sales activities, everything has become 'project-like work.' Therefore, in this seminar, we will clearly explain the basics of project management and practical methods for the field."

[Archive Distribution] How to Standardize Black Box Legacy Systems and Field Operations and Transition to a New System Legacy systems that have become black boxes after many years since their introduction. Amid urgent calls for renewal due to the "2025 Cliff" and the "Logistics 2024 Problem," many responsible individuals feel pressure with concerns like "I don't know how to write an RFP," "I'm worried about missing requirements," and "I can't afford to fail." In this seminar, we will thoroughly explain the "steps to create a successful RFP" to lead logistics DX to success. We will specifically discuss the standardization of operations that abandon current practices and data integration strategies. Additionally, we will introduce common pitfalls through actual failure cases. [Recommended for] - Logistics planners, IT system personnel, and DX promotion staff from shipper companies and logistics companies. - Those who are tasked with renewing black box legacy systems and feel pressure, or those who are anxious about "missing requirements" and "vendor selection." - Recommended for those seeking practical insights from writing a correct RFP to standardizing current operations, internal adjustments, and ROI calculation tips.

This seminar will provide a detailed explanation of how to integrate data between Salesforce and other systems. There are three methods for data integration with Salesforce: the "Data Loader," which is provided free of charge by Salesforce, the "Web API" developed individually, and the highly extensible "Data Integration Tools (EAI Tools)." We will compare the advantages and disadvantages of each method and provide tips for finding the most suitable integration method for your company's needs, incorporating actual case studies. <Recommended for> - Those who are struggling with data integration between Salesforce and core systems - Those who find that the burden on the field is a challenge, hindering the utilization of Salesforce - Those who want to easily integrate data with peripheral systems
