Announcement of the Experience Seminar for the New Product "Logistics Workflow"

Seiko Epson is offering a free collection of successful case studies on improving complex logistics operations and logistics hubs!

Seiko Epson Corporation announced its "Environmental Vision 2050" in June 2008, aiming to reduce CO2 emissions throughout the product and service lifecycle to one-tenth by 2050, and actively engages in environmental activities such as restoring and conserving biodiversity in collaboration with local communities. Since June 2009, the company has also initiated joint delivery operations with Epson Sales Corporation and Canon Marketing Japan Inc., expanding its CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) activities across the group, with the goal of reducing CO2 emissions and improving logistics efficiency. As part of these efforts, the company is fundamentally reassessing the current state of its dispersed warehouses and logistics in Japan to reform its operations, enabling faster and more accurate delivery of Epson products to all customers. ■We are offering a free collection of successful case studies that cover initiatives by such companies that are resilient in the face of recession.■

Komatsu puts into practice! A case filled with know-how that achieved surprising cost reduction and productivity improvement is available for free download.

Komatsu, a leader in construction and heavy machinery worldwide under the "KOMATSU" brand, is focused on improving quality, reliability, and production efficiency by harnessing the power of identifying challenges on-site (on-site capability). To visualize the diverse range of vehicle types and specifications produced, and to quickly and accurately grasp improvement opportunities, the use of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) is essential. Since 2000, we have implemented the logistics improvement system "RaLC" from CEC, utilizing it in the logistics system department for proposals and in the production technology department for optimizing production line verification. Since April 2010, by introducing CEC's logistics improvement system "RaLC," we have been able to monitor the position and movement of forklifts in real-time. By visualizing the logistics vehicles operating within the facility, we aim to achieve continuous logistics improvement, further cost reduction, and increased productivity. ■We will also hold seminars related to this case. You can apply through the survey at the bottom■

The innovative simulator tool RaLC introduces many new features! Achieving efficiency in logistics processes with the "Logistics Workflow."

The innovative simulator tool RaLC has been enhanced with many new features. The new feature "Logistics Workflow" standardizes all processes including "Receiving," "Storage," "Picking," "Inspection," "Sorting," and "Shipping," eliminating complex modeling tasks. With intuitive operability and workflow functions specialized for logistics operations, RaLC has evolved even further. There is a CSV automatic generation feature that allows existing data such as receiving data and picking data to be used as is, and initial inventory data is also automatically generated from picking data. There is no longer a need to manually add sorting data settings to the simulation master file.

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 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.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made the bed exit sensor wireless, allowing it to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ The bed exit sensor notifies wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with a single receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

The "HA-T Series" is an energy-saving automatic door sensor that opens only for those who wish to enter, whether on a busy street or in a narrow passageway. The automatic door opens simply by bringing your hand close, addressing hygiene concerns even in facilities used by a large number of people. You can choose between "Non-vision Mount Type/HA-T401" and "Non-vision Built-in Type/HA-T520" depending on the application and installation location. 【Recommended for such places!】 ☑ Entrance facing a busy corridor ☑ Presence of counters or signs near the door ☑ Buildings facing narrow passages ☑ Buildings that prioritize aesthetics ☑ Hospitals and facilities that consider hygiene ☑ Large facilities with many doors 【Features】 ● Adaptable to various door types with four detection spot settings ● Reduces unnecessary opening and closing, contributing to energy-saving by minimizing wasteful power consumption ● Equipped with a light touch function, allowing the door to open and close just by waving your hand, ensuring hygiene ● Can also be used as a wide detection range non-vision infrared sensor ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
