We will be exhibiting at 3D Printing 2017!

Toray Precision Corporation has been solving customer problems and contributing to society with ultra-precision microfabrication technology since its establishment in 1955. We will be exhibiting at this exhibition a wide range of products, including not only samples created with metal 3D printers but also a collection of our long-cultivated ultra-precision microfabrication technology (processing samples). We invite you to visit our booth to see, touch, and experience them firsthand.

A must-see for those considering 3D printing with metal! The key points of design for 3D models are all covered in this one book!

The "Metal 3D Printer Handbook" is a must-read booklet for those considering metal 3D printing (metal additive manufacturing), featuring the principles of shaping, key points for designing models, and case studies. In most cases, additional material known as support is required to support the printed object during the shaping process. This handbook clearly explains the points for designing to minimize that support. 【Contents】 ■ About metal additive manufacturing ■ Design rules ■ Examples of supports and strategies to avoid them ■ Methods for removing supports ■ How to order and company introduction *Currently, we are offering the "Metal 3D Printer Handbook" as a special gift exclusively for Ipros users! For more details, please contact us or download the catalog to view.

A new manufacturing process that combines the freedom of metal 3D printing with high-quality precision machining! "One-stop support from modeling to quality control."

Metal additive manufacturing (metal 3D printing) is a technology that produces objects by irradiating metal powder with a laser to melt and solidify it. By layering metal powder in micrometer-thick layers, it is possible to obtain dense and high-precision parts. A wide range of products can be created, from large components up to 250×250×H325mm to small precision parts. We accommodate various needs from prototyping to mass production. By combining metal additive manufacturing with our precision machining technology, we have produced precision products that were previously difficult to achieve. - The three-dimensional sanitary piping is a product made by combining interior polishing (Ra13μm→Ra0.5μm) of inaccessible three-dimensional piping channels, machining, and welding. - The air flow channel component (free air flow channel with an oval cross-section) is a precision part that achieves a gap of 0.3mm and a surface roughness of Ra0.2μm through precision wire processing. - The lightweight gear features a lattice structure to reduce weight, with the end faces finished to a mirror surface through precision grinding. - The Trinity pendant consists of three interconnected components that rotate freely with minimal gaps. The end faces are also finished to a mirror surface through precision grinding.

The production of parts that was difficult with previous cutting processes has been realized! We offer a total solution from the preliminary stages of modeling to finishing!

"Metal additive manufacturing" directly creates complex-shaped parts from 3D data using a metal 3D printer. This manufacturing method involves irradiating a thin layer of metal powder with a laser to melt the necessary parts, then spreading more powder and repeating the same process to build the shape. Toray Precision, a pioneer in "ultra-precision microfabrication," offers comprehensive proposals that consider the product's functionality and finish from the early stages of manufacturing. 【Features】 ■ Production of parts that were difficult to achieve with traditional machining is now possible! ■ Secondary processing after shaping allows for improvements in dimensional accuracy and surface roughness! ■ By creating welded or segmented parts as a single unit, processing time can be reduced and costs can be lowered! ■ The range of sizes and types of materials that can be shaped has expanded, allowing for large-scale shaping of φ1320× height 1150mm! *Catalog with processing examples is currently available!

Fukuda Co., Ltd., which develops, manufactures, and sells leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing performance, provides a technical document that clearly explains the methods and theories of airtight testing, titled "Technical Manual." We are offering it as a PDF file. Please take this opportunity to download and view it!

● What is a hydrogen leak detector? It can measure leaks in small areas that could not be detected in air leak tests and can also identify the leak locations. It is a detector that uses a mixture of 5% hydrogen and 95% nitrogen (non-flammable gas: ISO10156:2017) as the tracer gas. ● What is a helium leak test system? It is a leak test system suitable for high-precision or high-pressure leak inspections. The helium leak test system uses helium gas as the detection gas (tracer gas) and detects the helium that has leaked out. It is the leak test method among Fukuda's leak testers that can detect the smallest leaks.

The pinhole inspection for packaging engineering is fully automated, eliminating packaging defects based on certain quality standards. The judgment results and operational status can be managed via a monitor screen. - Quantitative management of quality standards for the pinhole inspection process - Ensuring the quality of the product's shelf life - Establishing evaluation criteria for the manufacturing process, achieving quantitative quality assurance - Slim and space-saving design that can be connected to existing production lines - Quick changeover for product variety switching can be handled in a short time by exchanging chambers - Fully domestically produced, allowing for rapid maintenance and troubleshooting - Example target works: pillow packaging, packaged rice (packaged cooked rice), etc. *Please consult us regarding the use of this product for pharmaceuticals.
