Exhibited at the FOOMA JAPAN 2019 International Food Industry Exhibition from July 9 to 12.

Model change with a new design! Added rotational speed control function to match the materials.

The Higashimoto Kikai "Grinder" thoroughly pursues the essence of "cutting without kneading the raw materials," allowing for optimal products to be obtained through appropriate rotation speeds and spiral cylinders, as well as special plates and knives tailored to various raw materials. The "New Type Grinder" has achieved a significant increase in production capacity with proper rotation speed control while maintaining the safety of conventional machines. Additionally, to enhance cleanability, it has become possible to disassemble the forced roll, which was often a blind spot in conventional machines. A new low-hopper type simple press grinder that allows direct input of salted raw materials from injectors and other sources has also been added to the lineup. By using the plate and knife in a non-contact manner, a safe manufacturing line has been realized. 【Features】 ■ Adopts a two-stage crushing system ■ Allows disassembly of the forced roll, which was unreachable in conventional models ■ Rotation speed control using the angle mincer method ■ High processing capacity ■ Reduction of burrs through the use of unique plates and knives ■ Completely made in Japan, produced in our own factory ■ Easy daily maintenance and stable performance ■ Made of all stainless steel *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

Reduction of manpower and automation in operations! Vertical transportation enables space-saving conveyance!!

The "Vertical Conveyor" is a screw-type feeding device that enables the automation and reduction of labor in the feeding process. Unlike a conveyor that transports products at an angle, it can transport them vertically, allowing for space-saving usage. 【Features (Excerpt)】 ■ Cleanability The screw can be removed, making it easy to clean. ■ High Performance With inverter control, it can adjust to an optimal rotation speed suitable for food. ■ High Durability Made entirely of stainless steel, it allows for complete overhaul. *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

• Conveyor

Complete cleaning is possible with the three processes of pre-wash, main wash, and rinse sterilization! *Made of all stainless steel.

This product is a cleaning machine from KITTNER designed to wash 15 rotary massage tanks (tumbler tanks) per hour, featuring an all-stainless steel structure. The cleaning device offers both vertical and horizontal tank cleaning options. In the vertical configuration, the tank is cleaned upside down to wash away residues. Please feel free to contact us if you have any inquiries. 【Features (excerpt)】 ■ After-sales support No worries about after-sales maintenance with domestically produced equipment. ■ Resource-saving Effective resource-saving cleaning with minimal water usage. ■ High performance Composed of an adjustable program with three stages: pre-wash, main wash, and rinse sterilization. *If you are interested, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Achieving labor-saving, efficiency improvement, automation, and cost reduction in the post-processing of molding!

Since it is possible to weigh while transferring meat, pre-injection weighing is not necessary. 【Features】 ■ Supports both roast and bacon by changing attachments ■ The suction hose can always be used in a clean state ■ Pre-injection weighing is unnecessary ■ Synchronous operation with the injector is possible *For details and specifications, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

• Food Conveyor Equipment

The Higashimoto Kikai mixer has been newly equipped with a cooling function in its lineup thanks to the complete cleaning of the sealing section!

Through our partnership with Air Liquide Japan, we can efficiently utilize liquid nitrogen for stirring and cooling. This is suitable for cooling products such as nuggets, meatballs, and patties in the next process of the molding machine. The seal part of the stirring blade's rotation axis can be easily disassembled for daily cleaning. We are committed to a high-hygiene design that prevents water accumulation. All components and controls are made in Japan, allowing for quick responses to any issues. 【Features】 ▶ Stirring and cooling using liquid nitrogen Reduction of cooling time (up to 1/3) Stirring possible at temperatures below 0°C (down to -4°C) ▶ Disassembly and cleaning of the seal part ▶ Complete peace of mind with fully Japanese-made products ▶ Intuitive operation with a combination of touch panel and lever switch ▶ Pursuit of the golden ratio between blade angle and tank volume to accommodate various products ▶ Blades are welded structures, eliminating concerns about foreign objects without bolts, etc. ▶ Interlock mechanism included ▶ High-hygiene design that prevents water accumulation *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

Automate sending, opening, and sorting! Chicken meat opener.

The "Continuous Opener" is a compact system that integrates the functions of bag supply, bag opening, product transfer, and empty bag handling necessary for the chicken meat unpacking process. With simple operation, it separates the product from the bag and sorts the product and empty bags. Additionally, it uses a rotating knife to cut one spot on the bag, preventing damage to the product. 【Features】 ■ Dedicated opening machine for chicken meat ■ The conveyor, knife, and squeezing roller are inverter-driven to accommodate 2kg bags ■ Easy to check, inspect, and disassemble the device ■ Hygienic and compliant with HACCP ■ Secondary wiring and air are internally arranged, allowing for fewer installation restrictions and easy operation *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

[Speaker] Mr. Takumi Aida, Analyst, Advanced Technology Lab, Japan Research Institute, Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] Autonomous driving technology has developed primarily around the enhancement of vehicle control based on a rule-based approach using various sensing data such as cameras, radar, and LiDAR. In recent years, there has also been progress in End-to-End approaches where AI learns integratively from recognition to control. While commercial applications of unmanned taxis and autonomous trucks are advancing mainly in the United States and China, efforts in Japan remain at the demonstration stage. Moreover, the spread of autonomous driving is changing the form of mobility provision from "ownership" to "service utilization," which is also impacting the nature of financial services. With the expansion of business models based on operational data and utilization rates, the forms of involvement of financial institutions are expected to diversify. This lecture will organize an overview of autonomous driving technology and its latest trends, and, based on domestic and international use cases, will consider the challenges for social implementation and strategies for promoting utilization, including the nature of financial services.
