Nitto Kohki will hold the "2026 Attack Fair in Misato" at the Misato City Cultural Hall Exhibition Room for two days on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, and Thursday, June 27, 2026. The Attack Fair is an exhibition where you can actually "see, touch, and operate" Nitto Kohki's products. Additionally, there will be wonderful souvenirs for visitors and many fun activities prepared. We look forward to welcoming everyone!

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 suppresses "shrinkage" during firing. We will discuss the characteristics of parts that can be created using this method, layer manufacturing technology, target fields, and contract manufacturing services, as well as our collaboration with Metal Research Institute, which has started a high-precision ceramic parts manufacturing service using metal 3D printers with this material. Following that, we will provide a clear explanation of the development trends of various ceramic 3D printers from world-class companies such as SKEFINE, Lithoz, and Sinto Advanced Ceramics. We will cover the innovative manufacturing technologies that enable the creation of complex shapes that were previously impossible with traditional processing methods, including the manufacturing of hollow, porous, and lattice structures. This includes the creation of innovative parts, rapid development and prototyping of components, a significant reduction in the number of parts, lightweight miniaturization, and a substantial reduction in manufacturing processes and workforce. We will also discuss recent attention-grabbing developments in high-speed, large ceramic 3D printers for the short-term and low-cost manufacturing of large parts and products. Thanks to the remarkable advancements in ceramic 3D printing/AM technology, manufacturing ceramic parts with 3D printers will become commonplace in a few years.

With the advancement of technological innovation, a wide variety of ceramics 3D printers have recently been developed and launched into the market, enabling the creation of complex shapes and integrated structures, porous and lattice structures, and hollow structures that were impossible with traditional methods and technologies. This has led to the creation of innovative ceramic components, short-term, low-cost, high-quality manufacturing, a significant reduction in the number of parts, and a substantial decrease in production processes and workforce. On the other hand, Canon has developed a high-performance ceramic material that excels in selective laser melting (SLM) for metal 3D printers, which suppresses "shrinkage" during sintering. 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 components using Canon's innovative ceramic materials and leveraging the metal 3D printers from 3D Systems. In this seminar, we 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, the target areas, collaboration with the Metal Research Institute, and future material development and market strategies.

Idea Corporation will exhibit at the "2026 Cleaning Comprehensive Exhibition" held at Tokyo Big Sight from November 18 (Wednesday) to November 20 (Friday), 2026. At the venue, we will demonstrate the removal of rust, coatings, and contaminants using a laser cleaner. While viewing actual workpieces, we will introduce the possibilities of laser cleaning according to the type of target objects and contaminants. Additionally, we will showcase a solvent regeneration machine (solvent recycler) that regenerates and recovers used solvents. You can consult us about improving cleaning processes and costs on-site, including reducing solvent usage, lowering disposal costs, and addressing explosion-proof environments. If you have challenges such as "I want to try removing with a laser," "I want to review my current cleaning methods," or "I want to reuse used solvents instead of disposing of them," please stop by the Idea booth. 【Exhibition Overview】 Exhibition Name: 2026 Cleaning Comprehensive Exhibition Dates: November 18 (Wednesday) to November 20 (Friday), 2026, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, East Hall Booth Number: W-13 Admission: Free with pre-registration We look forward to your visit.
