Utilization of the experimental design features of the statistical analysis software JMP in the manufacturing industry.

Transforming “time spent on data analysis” into “time that creates value”

JMP is a statistical analysis software used by researchers and engineers around the world. It is designed to efficiently connect data and insights obtained in the field to results that support decision‑making. One of its key features is the ability to perform a wide range of statistical analyses—such as advanced Design of Experiments (DOE), quality control, and multivariate analysis—using only mouse operations. Data managed in Excel and other tools can also be smoothly reshaped into analysis‑ready formats, enabling fast analysis without requiring complex programming. In JMP, graphs, statistical results, and data are displayed interactively and in sync, allowing users to deepen their understanding through exploration and iteration. Hypotheses and insights held by experienced engineers can be statistically validated, visualized, and organized in a form that is easy to share within teams. These visualizations support aligned discussions among stakeholders as well as evidence‑based reporting and explanation. Leveraging JMP not only reduces the burden of analysis and data preparation but also contributes to process improvement and faster development cycles. By connecting the expertise of seasoned engineers with statistical analysis, JMP aims to bring greater confidence to decisions made on the front lines.

For researchers and technology developers in the manufacturing industry! Experiment Design (DOE) that can be started with no code.

This is an introductory seminar to learn the basic operations of JMP's "Design of Experiments (DOE)." Anyone can participate, regardless of industry, job type, or experience with design of experiments. You will be able to experience the basic operations and functions of design of experiments while actually operating JMP on your own device, following the instructor's explanations and the provided text (PDF version). [Content] The seminar will focus on explaining the procedures for creating experimental designs, entering experimental data, fitting models, and visualizing results (such as contour plots and response surfaces) using JMP. JMP's "Custom Design" is a flexible experimental design creation feature that accommodates screening experiments and optimization experiments. It allows for the combination of various types of factors, such as continuous factors, categorical factors, and mixture factors, and can also create experimental designs with constraints on factors. In this seminar, we will introduce these features and how to utilize them while actually creating experimental designs using "Custom Design." If you do not have JMP, you can participate using a 30-day free trial version. Trial: https://www.jmp.com/ja/download-jmp-free-trial

Our company will exhibit at the "102nd Tokyo International Gift Show Autumn 2026" held at Tokyo Big Sight. At this exhibition, we will introduce various products made using sustainable knitting techniques, specifically <Whole Garment>, which utilizes only the necessary yarns to reduce resource waste. These products include bags, knit caps, gloves, lampshades, belts, and more. Additionally, we will demonstrate our design software <APEXFiz Design>, which enables everything from planning and design to color consideration, realistic fabric simulation, and 3D virtual sampling of products, showcasing new possibilities in knitting technology and solutions that lead to increased productivity. Booth: East 7-T44-26 (East Hall 7) Exhibition Content: APEXFiz Design (design software) SHIMA Datamall (digital content web service) yarnbank (comprehensive web service for yarn information) SHIMANAVI (e-learning system) Knit samples (whole garment knit accessories, three-dimensional swatches, etc.) <Contact Information> Tokyo Branch, Minami TEL: 03-3246-0511

[Instructor] Attorney Shinya Tsuchiya, Ishizaki & Yamanaka Law Office [Key Lecture Content] When various problematic behaviors arise from employees, such as poor work attitude, harassment, and lack of cooperation, if the employer mismanages the response, it can significantly undermine workplace order and operational efficiency, and there is also a possibility that the legal validity of disciplinary actions or personnel measures taken against the employee in question may be denied. To avoid such risks, appropriate and consistent responses based on employment regulations and internal systems are required. On the other hand, dealing with "problematic employees" can often place a significant psychological and practical burden on busy supervisors and HR personnel. In order to maintain smooth business operations, support for those responding and organizational preparedness have become essential in today's environment. In this seminar, we will systematically organize practical knowledge useful in the field by considering specific scenarios, focusing on the legal points and practical strategies to keep in mind when responding to various types of "problematic employees" that have been emerging recently.

We will be exhibiting at the "1st Chubu Food Industry Creation Exhibition '26" to be held at Port Messe Nagoya from November 4 (Wednesday) to November 6 (Friday), 2026.
