Notice of Recruitment Event Participation | February 3 (Tuesday) @ Convex Okayama Mynavi Job Hunting Pre-Fair Okayama Venue

Top class in industry share!! "Takaya," the company that gathers trust and support from around the world for its circuit board inspection equipment.

The "electronic circuit board" is one of the important components widely used in various fields as a fundamental part for controlling electronic devices. The "board inspection equipment" developed by the Industrial Equipment Division is an "in-circuit tester" designed to inspect whether all components function correctly and whether there are any installation defects after various electronic components have been mounted on this "electronic circuit board" (ICT: In-Circuit Test). Among these, the "flying probe tester," which uses a needle called a "probe" that is rapidly moved by a robotic arm to directly contact the electronic components on the board for inspection, is a flagship product developed by Takaya ahead of the world. This device enables the quick detection of various defects that occur during manufacturing. Additionally, it allows for rapid adaptation to a wide range of boards through program changes. It has established an indispensable and solid position in modern manufacturing, which is characterized by small-batch production of diverse products.

This is a seminar introducing the new features of the latest version, Ver. 30, of the general-purpose 2D CAD system "EASYDRAW." Customers currently using EASYDRAW can achieve further efficiency and utilize convenient features by taking advantage of the new functionalities, so we encourage you to consider attending this seminar.

In aerospace, automotive, and other fields, rapid advancements in material development and manufacturing technology are being made to achieve further weight reduction aimed at improving fuel efficiency and reducing carbon dioxide emissions. This seminar will provide an easy-to-understand explanation for beginners about the trends in new material development at advanced companies that are energetically working towards ultra-lightweight solutions using lightweight materials such as carbon fiber, aluminum, and ceramics, as well as various additive manufacturing (AM) and manufacturing technologies and product case studies utilizing these materials through complex shape integration, lattice/honeycomb structure fabrication, porous structure fabrication, and topology optimization with 3D printers, which are impossible with conventional processing methods and technologies. The lightweighting of parts that can significantly differentiate from conventional and competitor parts is an urgent and critical issue, and intense technological development competition is unfolding both domestically and internationally. 3D printers, which are seen as the next-generation manufacturing method, offer a completely new perspective on AM technology, enabling the creation of innovative and attractive lightweight parts that are difficult to achieve with existing processing methods and technologies, as well as realizing short-term, low-cost, and high-quality manufacturing. Development cannot be expected to progress along the lines of existing technologies. By merging lightweight materials with 3D printing and utilizing topology optimization, astonishing weight reduction of parts can be achieved. We encourage you to take on this challenge.

At the beginning of this seminar, we will focus on the research and development related to ceramics 3D additive manufacturing that the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology has been working on. We will discuss 3D additive manufacturing, powder preparation for manufacturing, debinding and sintering processes, as well as case studies of ceramics 3D additive manufacturing centered on alumina and reaction-sintered silicon carbide. Next, we will introduce Canon's latest developments in high-performance ceramic materials that significantly reduce "shrinkage" during sintering, which excel in selective laser melting (SLM) for 3D printers. We will also cover the characteristics of parts that can be manufactured using this method, layering technology, target fields, contract manufacturing services, and collaboration with Metal Research Institute, which has started high-precision semi-conductor part manufacturing services using metal 3D printers with these materials. After that, we will have advanced explanations from instructors of Shin-Toh V-Ceramics and As One about the development trends of various ceramics 3D printers from world-leading companies 3DCeram Sinto and Lithoz. We will discuss the latest additive manufacturing technologies that enable the creation of innovative parts, rapid part development, prototyping, and manufacturing, significant reductions in the number of parts, lightweight miniaturization, and reductions in manufacturing processes and workforce through the production of complex shapes, hollow and porous structures, and lattice structures that were previously impossible.

The complex shape manufacturing, integrated manufacturing, lattice/honeycomb structure manufacturing, porous structure manufacturing, hybrid structure manufacturing, direct manufacturing from 3D data, as well as topology optimization and collaboration with generative design, which were difficult with conventional processing methods and technologies, can lead to the creation of innovative aluminum parts that are not found in traditional or other companies. This includes rapid development, prototyping, and manufacturing of parts, dramatic reductions in the number of parts, ultra-lightweight and compact designs, and significant reductions in manufacturing time, costs, processes, and workforce. In this seminar, pioneering users such as J·3D, ODEC, and the pioneers of white copper, who are utilizing metal 3D printers to rapidly develop, prototype, and manufacture complex aluminum parts, will specifically explain the key points and precautions for introduction and utilization, various manufacturing methods and technologies, unique next-generation AM technologies developed in-house, and groundbreaking case studies that significantly differentiate their parts from those of other companies, sharing both success and failure stories. With the remarkable advancements in metal AM technology, the use of metal 3D printers for aluminum parts manufacturing will become commonplace in a few years. The secrets to success will be discussed by instructors with numerous research achievements and extensive manufacturing experience, providing clear and concrete lectures for those considering implementation, beginners with interest, and those who are new to the field.

Recently, next-generation large-scale resin, metal, and ceramics 3D printers that achieve astonishing high-speed molding, low-cost, and high-precision molding have been successively launched into the market. These printers are actively being adopted by advanced companies in fields such as aerospace, automotive, industrial machinery, plants, defense, and social infrastructure for the production of large parts, large products, components for large resin molds, as well as for parts and mold repairs and reverse engineering. In this seminar, we will discuss the development trends, features, and utilization technologies of the latest advanced machines from Lobotics, a leading company in large resin 3D printers, along with domestic and international case studies and challenges. We will also cover the overview, features, and molding technology of the large ceramics 3D printer from SKEFINE, which can mold the largest parts in the world. Additionally, we will present the short molding technology and case studies of Fuji High Frequency Industry, which is vigorously utilizing the rapidly growing large metal 3D printer from Meltio, including examples of low-cost and material reduction achieved through topology optimization. Lastly, we will provide a clear and concrete explanation for beginners about the latest molding technologies and case studies observed in Sankou Gousei, which has been using a large hybrid 3D printer from Matsuura Machinery for the past eight years to produce various high-functionality and high-quality components for large resin molds, including stories of failures and successes related to mass production using those molds.
