Notice of Participation in the Ceramics Product Exhibition - "11th High-Performance Ceramics Exhibition [Osaka]" from May 13 (Wed) to May 15 (Fri), 2026.

Minimum aperture φ0.02mm; high-precision fine hole ceramics can be produced with a length of 100mm.

Pilot Corporation's ceramics can provide high dimensional accuracy for fine pores and deep holes of less than 1mm, which are difficult to manufacture through machining. Thanks to the expertise in mixing, extrusion molding, and firing developed in the production of mechanical pencil leads, we can achieve dense and homogeneous molding, resulting in minimal dimensional variation within the same lot. Additionally, we can produce single holes, multiple holes, and irregularly shaped holes. By utilizing high-precision fine holes, we enable precise microflow control. Our ceramics, which have excellent corrosion resistance, can also be used with corrosive liquids and gases. The materials used are high-purity alumina, zirconia, and aluminum nitride. 【Features】 ■ Capable of manufacturing fine ceramics with a minimum outer diameter of φ0.3mm and a minimum hole diameter of φ0.02mm ■ For inner diameters of less than φ1mm, we can produce long products with an aspect ratio of over 200 (maximum length of 120mm) ■ Free thickness can be achieved for deep holes, from thin to thick walls ■ High precision with a dimensional tolerance of ±5% *For more details, please refer to the materials. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

Can be utilized in processes that require wear resistance, insulation, and corrosion resistance. Achieves a small diameter of 0.5 to 2.0 mm.

Our company utilizes the technology cultivated in the manufacturing of mechanical pencil leads to produce fine, long-shaped ceramic products called "Zirconia Rods." Until now, we have offered these as original products, but in response to numerous requests, we have added standard products to our lineup. You can choose from four types with diameters ranging from 0.5 to 2.0 mm (in 0.5 mm increments). These are ideal for processes where "the use of metals is not suitable," such as those requiring wear resistance and insulation. They can also be used as materials for manufacturing components of precision equipment that are becoming smaller. 【Features】 ■ Capable of producing high-density molded bodies through our unique kneading, extrusion molding, and firing technology ■ Provides a smooth surface with an Ra of approximately 0.2 due to extrusion molding ■ Short lead times are possible because of domestic manufacturing ■ Sold stored in a dedicated slide tray that is easy to retrieve and has excellent preservation properties *For more details, please download the materials or feel free to contact us.

For controlling the flow rate of gases and liquids. Achieving stable flow and reduced pressure loss.

The pilot's "porous ceramics" can create numerous through-holes for extrusion molding. It is possible to mold thin ceramics with a minimum outer diameter of φ0.3 mm, fine-pore ceramics with a minimum pore diameter of φ0.02 mm, and through porous ceramics with over 100,000 holes. These are used in fields such as analysis, automotive, and semiconductors. 【Features】 ■ Even for pores with a diameter of less than 1 mm, it is possible to produce items with an aspect ratio of over 200. ■ High aspect ratio holes are penetrated in the extrusion direction. ■ Since the holes are straight and pass through a dense body, stable flow rates can be achieved. *For more details, please refer to the product catalog available for PDF download.

The particle visualization technology developed under our brand "ViEST" has a very high level of detection sensitivity, capable of visualizing the suspended or adhered states of micro and nano-sized particles in real time. We are engaged in the sale of visualization systems and contract services for evaluation (investigating particles and airflow in production processes, inside and outside manufacturing equipment, evaluating the performance of cleaning products, proposing yield improvement measures, etc.) both domestically and internationally. In manufacturing environments, invisible fine foreign substances, dust generation, particle adhesion due to static electricity, and airflow disturbances can cause quality defects and reduced yield. Our company clarifies these contamination factors through visualization technology and provides consistent support from identifying the source of the problem to considering and confirming improvement measures. Do you have any of the following concerns? - Unable to identify the cause of foreign matter contamination - Want to check airflow and cleanliness in clean rooms - Want to understand dust generation from manufacturing equipment and transport systems - Want to reduce particle adhesion to films and substrates - Want to improve contamination that leads to reduced yield

In this seminar, we will focus on the challenges of sensitivity reduction and separation performance in GC/MS analysis, and introduce the latest technologies and practical know-how that can help solve these issues. This time, we will also have a presentation from LECO Japan, who will discuss the benefits and applications of high-resolution and high-separation analysis with real examples. Additionally, Restek will introduce column technologies effective for improving sensitivity in trace analysis. Restek: We will explain the inert performance of the RMX GC column, which is effective for improving sensitivity in trace analysis, and the column technology that suppresses adsorption loss in low concentration areas, along with actual measurement data. LECO: We will present the latest application examples of comprehensive detection of trace components using high-sensitivity GC-TOFMS and RMX columns, including environmental, aroma, and material analysis. This content is recommended for anyone involved in multi-component analysis using GC/MS, whether for target or non-target analysis, as well as those who are just starting out.
