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.

[Instructor] Hiroyuki Sakai, President of MANAGEMENTIVA Co., Ltd. (Former Community Manager of Real Madrid CF) [Key Lecture Content] The 2026 Soccer World Cup, held in North and Central America with the United States as a sports business powerhouse, concluded with great success. However, it is also true that events occurred behind the scenes that far exceeded imagination. Many new trends in activities were confirmed around the local stadiums. What has changed in business, and how? Was it successful or not? What hints can we gather for the future? Which aspects should the Japanese sports industry adopt? Furthermore, the relationship with politics that attracted attention. It has been said that this should ideally be separated... Using the World Cup as a case study, I will discuss the latest business situation.

[Speaker] Mr. Takaki Miyazaki, President and CEO of NTT Circulast Corporation Director Ms. Saori Koga [Key Lecture Content] Resource circulation is becoming increasingly important from the perspectives of decarbonization and resource security, with rising expectations particularly for non-ferrous metals such as copper. However, there is a challenge in that the "flow of goods" supporting resource circulation and the "flow of information" conveying their value are disconnected, leading to insufficient communication of characteristics such as the origin of recycled materials and environmental impact, resulting in the circulation value not being properly recognized and evaluated in the market. In this lecture, we will introduce the background behind the establishment of NTT Circulast by NTT and Mitsubishi Materials, as well as the business concept that connects the flow of information and goods. Additionally, we will discuss future prospects for realizing a market where circulation value is chosen, taking into account trends in international standardization (ISO).

[Speaker] Mr. Kimihiro Horiuchi, President and CEO of Data Driven Consulting Inc. [Key Lecture Content] We are confident in the strategies created in collaboration with our internal elite and external consultants. However, we are not achieving the results we desire. Many companies facing such challenges share a common issue: a lack of execution power to realize their strategies. On the other hand, when we talk about increasing execution power, it involves complex factors such as sales, human resources, organization, and marketing, making it difficult to find effective solutions. In this lecture, we will introduce a method for building an organization with overwhelming execution power by thoroughly refining the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, which should be practiced by everyone, aimed at business owners and middle management who are struggling with such concerns.

[Speaker] RAUL Co., Ltd. President and CEO Kenji Eda, Director of the Energy Information Center [Key Lecture Content] With the expansion of renewable energy adoption, there is growing interest in Virtual Power Plants (VPP) that utilize small grid-connected storage batteries, as well as storage batteries for homes, stores, and businesses, solar power generation, and electric vehicles (EVs). This lecture will clarify the differences between low-voltage grid-connected storage batteries and VPPs, the structure of equipment and operations, the structure of revenue generation, and the roles of key players from the basics. Furthermore, we will discuss overseas examples from Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom, explaining the differences with Japan and key points for commercialization. Without delving deeply into complex systems or technical details, we will clearly introduce practical perspectives on entry methods, challenges and risks, and future market outlooks. [Lecture Items] 1. Basic overview of low-voltage grid-connected storage batteries and VPPs 2. Structure of equipment and business for low-voltage grid-connected storage batteries 3.
