Are you feeling that there are "not enough people" and that "work stops due to back-and-forth for confirmation" during equipment installation and leveling work for large devices? In workplaces facing a labor shortage, improving the efficiency of the leveling process has become a significant challenge. At the 3rd Tama Future Industrial Fair, we will showcase Any Design's leveling-related products that address these issues. The wireless and digital precision level "LevelMan" shares measurement values in real-time to a tablet. You can confirm the same values from a distance, allowing for simultaneous decision-making by multiple people. Furthermore, the fully automated leveling adjustment system "AdjustMan," centered around LevelMan, has been developed as a result of joint research with the Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Technology Research Institute, and its practicality has been recognized with awards. At the venue, you can actually see how measurement sharing via wireless and apps works. Experience "leveling that doesn't stop even with a labor shortage" at our booth. ---- Date: January 30, 2026 (Friday) 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM January 31, 2026 (Saturday) 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Venue: Tokyo Tama Future Messe Booth: Any Design (Booth No. 20) Admission: Free (Pre-registration required)
