Release of the "Dr. Engineering Navi" series: A new product of a process management/cost management system specialized in custom order production by C.I.M. Comprehensive Research Institute.

Specialized in low-volume, multi-variety and single-item production. A system that visualizes "progress, delivery dates, and costs," contributing to improvements in process management through spreadsheets and whiteboards.

In environments with a variety of small-lot or single-item production, it is not uncommon for companies to manage processes using spreadsheet software or whiteboards, as the processes differ for each project. As a result, challenges such as an inability to grasp progress, a high risk of delivery delays, and a lack of visibility into project costs tend to arise. The "Dr. Process Navi" series is a process management and cost management system designed to solve these on-site challenges. It allows for a quick overview of the progress status for each project, centered around a large-scale Gantt chart. It connects information from the manufacturing site and visualizes progress, delivery dates, and costs collectively. Additionally, three editions are available to choose from based on management levels, allowing for a small start from process management using spreadsheet software. The scope of use can be gradually expanded according to the operational level of the implementing company. This system is suitable for process management in manufacturing environments where processes tend to become complex, such as mold making, prototyping, and dedicated machine manufacturing. For main features, implementation benefits, and usage images, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Achieve process management/cost management that fits the realities of many manufacturing sites, regardless of company size! Customized order production specialized "Dr. Process Navi" Basic.

The "Dr. Process Navi" series is a process management/cost management system specialized for make-to-order production. It covers single-item low-volume production (variety production) within make-to-order manufacturing, including mold manufacturing, prototyping, equipment manufacturing, and dedicated equipment manufacturing. The "Dr. Process Navi" series offers three editions tailored to the management levels of companies, and all editions come standard with a master schedule Gantt chart, system integration features, and individual cost management functions. Dr. Process Navi Basic is ideal for clarifying milestones and digitizing on-site achievements. It addresses the following challenges: - There is no dedicated person for process design (process input and schedule planning). - There is no one who can grasp the overall manufacturing process and create plans. - The number of parts and processes is too high, making it difficult to create process plans for each production number. - Decisions on parts and process steps are often made based on on-site judgment (experience and intuition). - Even if process design is done, there are too many changes to manage effectively.

Automatically create schedule plans from engineering design and thoroughly support the efficient operation of production equipment! Customized order production specialized "Dr. Engineering Navi" Standard.

The "Dr. Process Navi" series is a process management/cost management system specialized for make-to-order production. It focuses on single-item, small-batch production within make-to-order manufacturing, including mold manufacturing, prototyping, equipment manufacturing, and dedicated equipment manufacturing. The "Dr. Process Navi" series offers three editions tailored to the management level of companies, with all editions featuring a master schedule Gantt chart, system integration capabilities, and individual cost management functions as standard. Dr. Process Navi Standard organizes the complex connections of processes and supports efficient operation of equipment. It addresses the following challenges: - There is a need for a system that fits make-to-order production, particularly single-item and small-batch production. - We want to achieve information sharing and standardization through the systematization of process design tasks using tools like Excel. - We aim to automate schedule planning through allocation to machines. - We want to create a manufacturing environment that is resilient to changes in delivery dates, rush orders, and design changes. - We want to manage individual costs in real-time during processing.

Fukuda Co., Ltd. has been pursuing leak detection for 60 years and is committed to advancing the future of leak testing. 【 Supporting Various Leak Tests: Air Leak Test / Gas Leak Test (Hydrogen Gas, Helium Gas) 】 We develop, manufacture, and sell leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing properties. We will propose the appropriate testers and devices for each inspection target. 【 Target Industries and Examples of Inspection Targets 】 - Automotive Industry: Engines, FC components, valves and piping, various parts - Electronic Components Industry: Smartphones, keyless switches, various small sensors - Pharmaceuticals / Food / Cosmetics Industry: Bottle containers, syringes, vials, eye drop containers, pillow packaging, PTP packaging We will propose the most suitable leak testers for each industry. 【 ISO Certification 】JIS Q 9001:2015 (ISO 9001:2015)

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. Many implementation examples are also presented, so please take a look at the case study page.

The inspection targets of the "MSX-7003 series" are relatively large electronic devices. 【Inspection Targets】 - LED - Optical devices - High-frequency devices - Power semiconductors - IR sensors - Gyro sensors - Angular velocity sensors - Electrolytic capacitors, etc. The transport system is designed based on "pallet to pallet" to accommodate various types of work. The following three processes are performed automatically by the airtight inspection device: - Helium bombarding - Gross leak test - Fine leak test For packaged products smaller than 10 mm on each side, the work is set up using pallets or trays, followed by helium bombarding ↓ Then transported to the leak test process through high-speed handling ↓ Going through a continuous process from the gross leak test to the fine leak test ↓ And finally, discharged onto a pallet through high-speed handling. It also supports inline operations (the height of the pass line is 940 mm). Please watch the YouTube video from the link below.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can cause changes in the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model production is not required, the time needed to create prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or variations in dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
