We would like to express our congratulations on the continued prosperity of your esteemed company. Our company will be exhibiting at the following trade show, where we will be showcasing a number of products, including our new product, the Packaging Container Air Leak Test (Pin Hole Inspection) Device | MSQ-2003 series. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience during your busy schedule, but we would like to cordially invite you to attend this event. 【 Trade Show Name 】 【 Dates 】 【 Venue/Booth Number 】

We will showcase our new product "BLFF," a palletizing foam gripper that weighs only 1.9 kg and measures 350mm×250mm, ideal for bulk picking. We will also introduce various products that cater to different work applications, including durable suction cups and solutions for bag handling. Additionally, we are implementing energy-saving proposals by replacing ejectors to reduce compressed air consumption, which has become a challenge in many industries. If you have any issues with adhesion or transport, please feel free to consult with us at the venue. ■ Lightweight Foam Gripper for Collaborative Robots "CVGC Series" Despite weighing only 1.9 kg, this gripper has a theoretical lifting force of 100 kg, maximizing the payload capacity of collaborative robots. ■ Gripper for Films This gripper is designed to transport thin films gently, minimizing marks left on the surface. By utilizing 3D printing, we can accommodate highly flexible shape designs tailored to specific workpieces and applications. ■ Energy Saving Comparison Panel "Why does a single ejector consume less compressed air compared to a multi-stage ejector?" You can actually verify the differences in compressed air consumption through a comparative display using a flow meter and actual equipment.
