Notice of Participation in 'Mechatrotech Japan 2025' from Wednesday, October 22 to Saturday, October 25, 2025.

Achieve grinding and discharge machining with one machine. Significantly improve productivity with a tool changer capable of holding up to 8 tools! Achieve a tolerance of ±2μm with an integrated measurement system!

The "VHybrid 260" is a machining machine that features a grinding spindle on the top and a discharge machining spindle on the bottom, enabling efficient tool processing with quick switching in a short time. It can achieve a very smooth surface finish of Ra0.05μm solely through discharge machining, and it is also capable of fine processing of small-diameter tools with a diameter of less than 1mm. The productivity can be significantly enhanced with a tool changer that can hold up to 8 tools. Users currently manufacturing or regrinding PCD tools "by grinding" can expect a significant reduction in processing time. Users of discharge machining machines can also achieve surface roughness solely through discharge machining (Ra0.05μm). 【Features】 ■ Supports grinding and discharge machining of carbide tools up to φ150mm ■ Realizes automation of processing ■ Intuitive control panel designed with ergonomics in mind ■ Comes with software featuring a wealth of functions *For more details, please refer to the catalog. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

• Electric discharge machine

Grinding a wide range of tools from micro to large sizes! Achieving stable high-precision machining with thermal stability and rigid design.

The "VGrind infinity linear" is a high-performance grinding machine with excellent flexibility, designed for the efficient processing of precision tools. It features innovative kinematics that support multi-layer processing at the rotation center of the C-axis, wear-free linear motors mounted on the X, Y, and Z axes, and exceptional machine rigidity. Additionally, it is equipped with an insulated shank rest, and we also offer the tool grinding and electrical discharge machining machine "VHybrid 260," which can be used during discharge machining. 【Features】 ■ Equipped with an intelligent cooling concept using a plate-type heat exchanger ■ Thoroughly reviewed all components to dramatically improve productivity ■ Capable of processing a variety of cutting edge materials on a single machine ■ Automatically enhances productivity through flexible automation solutions ■ Supports tool processing with diameters ranging from 0.2mm to 200mm *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Ichikawa Techno Fabrics Co., Ltd. will be exhibiting at the "New Functional Materials Exhibition 2026" held at Tokyo Big Sight. This exhibition will bring together many products and technologies essential for manufacturing, from materials to processing and devices. Numerous visitors with specific needs seeking solutions to various challenges will attend. Collaboration proposals among exhibitors, as well as between visitors and exhibitors, will also be active. At our booth, we plan to showcase "industrial felt." We look forward to your visit.

The winners of the 8th "Safety Labeling and Human Development Contest" hosted by Max Corporation have been decided. Along with this award ceremony, we will hold a "Safety Exchange Meeting" where each company will present and share their daily safety activities. 【Agenda (Tentative)】 - Award ceremony for the 8th "Safety Labeling and Human Development Contest" - Report on safety activities (from two winning companies) - Lecture on workplace safety activities - Exchange of information on safety activities and labeling, etc. This is a valuable opportunity to learn about the initiatives and safety labeling of other companies! We encourage your participation.

The Daigaku Art and Design Exhibition is a joint exhibition by university students studying art and engineering from four universities in Japan. In 2025, it will be held in Nagoya. Natek is sponsoring the Daigaku Art and Design Exhibition 2025 to support the activities of students who will be responsible for Japan's future manufacturing. We look forward to your visit.

When we look around us, we see various areas such as housing, home appliances, automobiles, miscellaneous goods, and sports equipment filled with many plastic materials like synthetic fibers, films, bottles, and resin products. However, the concept of modern polymer materials, specifically the idea of polymers (macromolecules) connected by covalent bonds, was not established just 100 years ago. Therefore, it can be said that in less than a century, numerous plastic materials with various characteristics have been developed and rapidly integrated into our lives. Due to the short history and the diversity of materials, there are various challenges encountered when dealing with plastic materials, and the role of analytical technicians in solving these issues is significant. In this course, we will explain important and fundamental points over two sessions, focusing on the field of resin materials, not only for analytical technicians but also for engineers who create products using plastic materials and those who use plastic products to deepen their understanding. In the first session, which serves as a foundational overview, we will discuss the characteristics of representative plastic materials, including molecular structure and physical properties, characteristics and applications, and manufacturing methods, to aid in the understanding of plastic materials.

When we look around us, we see that various areas such as housing, home appliances, automobiles, miscellaneous goods, and sports equipment are overflowing with many plastic materials like synthetic fibers, films, bottles, and resin products. However, 100 years ago, the concept of modern polymer materials, specifically the idea of polymers (macromolecules) connected by covalent bonds, had not yet been established. Therefore, it can be said that in just under a century, numerous plastic materials with various characteristics have been developed and rapidly integrated into our lives. Due to the short history and the diversity of materials, there are various challenges encountered when handling plastic materials, but the role of analytical technicians in solving these issues is significant. Following the previous foundational edition, this second application edition will explain polymer multiphase materials (such as polymer alloys, compounds, and resin composites) and molding techniques, as well as environmental issues surrounding plastic materials, in order to enhance the practical value of plastic materials.
