Creating Attractive Ceramic Parts with 3D Printers and Developing New Markets <Zoom Online Seminar> - Advanced examples of achieving low-cost, high-quality ceramic parts, reducing manufacturing time, minimizing the number of parts, and decreasing processes and workforce through the integrated manufacturing of complex shapes that were traditionally impossible, as well as hollow, porous, and lattice structures.

Do you have any of these concerns at your workplace? ✓ Despite having rules for wearing protective gear and work procedures, employees continue to break the rules. ✓ Even with safety sensors installed, workplace accidents are not decreasing. ✓ Although risk management is being conducted, workplace accidents are still not decreasing. While measures for labor safety such as wearing protective gear and installing safety sensors are already being implemented in various places, the reality is that achieving zero workplace accidents has not yet been accomplished. In fact, from the perspective of the latest neuroscience and psychology, it has been found that these labor safety measures alone are insufficient. Would you like to aim for a workplace with zero accidents by enhancing employees' safety awareness? In this video, you will learn effective methods for managing risks arising from human error and changes in the work environment. (The video is approximately 50 minutes long.) To enhance safety awareness, it is important to ensure problem-solving skills, communication skills, and psychological safety. We will convey specific methods and their importance for raising safety awareness in the workplace. We kindly ask that competitors refrain from applying. Thank you for your understanding.

In this on-demand seminar, you will learn the "New 5S Thinking Method," which captures 5S activities from a new perspective, and we will introduce ways to change the thinking of the entire organization through daily operations. By incorporating coaching psychology, we will help enhance employee motivation and transform 5S activities into sustainable and effective practices. We invite you to take this opportunity to evolve your 5S activities and aim for the creation of an organization with problem-solving capabilities. Recommended for: - Heads or personnel in the Occupational Health and Safety Department - Training personnel from the HR department involved in internal education - Personnel from companies where 5S activities are currently stalled *This content is a recording of a past online live seminar, with some edits made.

Recently, next-generation large-scale resin, metal, and ceramic 3D printers that achieve astonishing high-speed molding, low-cost, and high-precision molding have been developed and launched in the market one after another. These printers are rapidly being adopted and utilized by advanced companies in various fields such as aerospace, automotive, industrial machinery, plants, defense, and social infrastructure for the manufacturing of large parts and products, production of 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 device overview and features of the large ceramic 3D printer from SKEFINE, which can create the world's largest large parts, as well as its short-term molding technology and application examples. Additionally, we will present the short-time molding technology and case studies of Fuji High Frequency Industry, which is energetically utilizing the rapidly growing large metal 3D printer from Meltio, along with 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 Sanko Gosei, which has been utilizing a large hybrid 3D printer from Matsuura Machinery for the production of various high-functionality and high-quality large resin mold components for the past eight years, including mass production examples using those molds.

At the beginning of the seminar, we will introduce Canon's latest developments in a groundbreaking high-performance ceramic material that excels in selective laser melting (SLM) for 3D printers, which effectively suppresses "shrinkage" during firing. We will discuss the characteristics of parts that can be fabricated using this method, layer manufacturing technology, target fields, contract manufacturing services, and our collaboration with Metal Research Institute, which has started a high-precision ceramic parts fabrication service using metal 3D printers with this material. Following that, we will provide an easy-to-understand explanation of the development trends of various ceramic 3D printers from world-leading companies such as Eske Fine, 3DCeram Sinto, and Lithoz. We will cover the innovative manufacturing technologies that enable the creation of complex shapes that were previously impossible with conventional processing methods, as well as the production of hollow, porous, and lattice structures. This includes examples of innovative parts creation, rapid part development, prototyping, manufacturing, significant reductions in the number of parts, lightweight miniaturization, and reductions in manufacturing processes and workforce. We will also discuss the recent attention on high-speed, large ceramic 3D printers for the short-term, low-cost manufacturing of large parts and products, sharing both failures and successes. With the remarkable advancements in ceramic 3D printers and ceramic AM technology, the manufacturing of ceramic parts using 3D printers will become commonplace in a few years.

With advancements in technology, a wide variety of ceramics 3D printers have recently been developed and launched into the market, enabling the creation of innovative ceramic parts that were impossible with traditional methods and technologies, as well as facilitating short-term, low-cost, high-quality manufacturing, which is being rapidly adopted and utilized by leading companies. On the other hand, Canon has developed a high-performance ceramic material that excels in suppressing "shrinkage" during sintering for use in selective laser melting (SLM) metal 3D printers, attracting attention. In June of last year, Canon and the Metal Research Institute collaborated to officially launch a contract manufacturing service for high-precision, complex-shaped ceramic parts using Canon's innovative ceramic materials and leveraging 3D Systems' metal 3D printers. This seminar will provide a practical and easy-to-understand explanation of the development trends of Canon's ceramic materials compatible with metal 3D printers, the molding technology using these materials, the characteristics of the parts that can be produced, the physical properties and features of the molded products, target areas, collaboration with the Metal Research Institute, and future material development and market strategies.
