No expensive molds needed! Directly create from 3D model data using a 3D printer!

"3D Ceramic Forming Technology" is a new shape-giving technology for ceramics using 3D printers. It allows for direct shaping from 3D model data without the use of expensive molds. Using the FDM (Fluid Deposition Modeling) method, it enables the one-shot creation of three-dimensional structures that cannot be produced with existing molding techniques. It can also be applied to materials other than ceramics, such as metals. 【Features】 ■ Direct shaping from 3D model data without the use of expensive molds ■ One-shot creation of three-dimensional structures that cannot be produced with existing molding techniques ■ In-house preparation of materials (filaments) for three-dimensional shaping ■ Support for three-dimensional prototype shaping from supplied raw materials ■ Applicable to materials other than ceramics, such as metals *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Recently, we held technical training sessions for the MilkoScan FT3 at five locations nationwide. In this training, we provided a wide range of useful information for operating the equipment, including explanations of the principles and structure of the device, how to create measurement products, daily maintenance, and how to respond to issues when they arise. Additionally, this year we introduced new methods for utilizing digital services (such as FossCalibrator and IQX) and also prepared hands-on sessions where participants could experience operating the equipment using a PC. Thank you to everyone who participated. Please feel free to contact us with any questions after the training. ------- At Foss Japan, in addition to training sessions and workshops to ensure you can use our equipment with confidence, we hold many events throughout the year. In seminars and open houses tailored to specific industries and analytical techniques, we showcase Foss's latest analytical solutions. -------

[Lecturers] EY Strategy and Consulting Co., Ltd. Infrastructure Advisory Partner Kenichiro Fukuda Strategy Partner Ken Fujiyama Infrastructure Advisory Director Takashi Matsumura [Key Lecture Content] The water supply and sewage business is facing structural challenges such as facility aging, a shortage of workforce, and a decrease in revenue due to population decline. The government is promoting the introduction of Water PPPs, regional consolidation, and the digital transformation of water supply and sewage systems, marking a significant turning point in the way these businesses are operated. This change is expanding business opportunities for private companies in various areas, including operation and maintenance, pipeline renewal, digital technology, and the utilization of smart meters and data. Additionally, as a means of expanding business domains and enhancing competitiveness, there has been an increase in capital and operational partnerships and M&A between companies, leading to industry restructuring. In this seminar, based on the latest trends in policy and the market, we will introduce business strategies for private companies to enter and expand in the water supply and sewage market, including the use of M&A and capital operational partnerships, drawing on achievements from both public and private support.
