[Additional Event in March!!] 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.

Are you making progress on measures for the "2024 Problem"? With stricter management of drivers' working hours, reducing "waiting time" has become an urgent issue in the logistics field. To address this challenge, our company, Hotron, proposes the "Vehicle Detection Ultrasonic Sensor 'HM-UX2'," which instantly grasps the availability of loading bays. The 'HM-UX2' contributes to the resolution of waiting times by accurately understanding the availability situation, reducing unnecessary waiting and queueing, and shortening waiting times to alleviate the burden on drivers! By replacing the "eyes" of your loading bay management with this high-precision sensor, why not start addressing the "2024 Problem"? Take a look at the product features: "Can it accurately detect availability?" "Can we really use it in our company?" "I just want to know the cost, even if it's an estimate." If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to consult with us.

The non-contact beam touch sensor "HA-T401/HA-T520" has a compact detection range, making it an ideal automatic door sensor for installation on automatic doors facing narrow corridors or busy streets. Depending on the application and installation location, you can choose between "non-vision mounting type" and "non-vision built-in type." 【Features】 ● With the beam touch sensor, you can open and close the automatic door simply by bringing your hand close without touching it, ensuring hygiene. ● Depending on the installation environment, such as single sliding or bi-parting doors, the detection range can be set in four ways: left, center, right, with 4 spots and 12 spots settings. ● Two types of activation row settings are available to reduce unnecessary opening and closing of the automatic door due to cross traffic, contributing to energy-saving effects. ● The touch switch and infrared sensor are integrated, allowing for a switch between beam touch and infrared sensor modes with a single model. 【Recommended for such places!】 ☑ Entrances facing busy corridors ☑ Counters or signs near the door ☑ Buildings facing narrow corridors ☑ Buildings that prioritize aesthetics ☑ Hospitals and facilities that consider hygiene ☑ Large facilities with many doors ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

Japan is among the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of significant earthquakes occurring. For the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake measures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
