• Vacuum pump

Achieve versatile suction transport for a variety of products and quantities using collaborative robots! Reduce the hassle and cost of changing setups!

This is a vacuum gripper for collaborative robots compliant with ISO/TS 15066. Thanks to its special structure that minimizes air leakage and allows for a large suction volume, it can achieve stable suction and transport even when the entire suction surface is not covered. It is ideal for palletizing/de-palletizing cardboard and bulk transport of packaged products. It comes standard with a pressure switch compatible with IO-Link communication, enabling monitoring of various parameters and contributing to predictive maintenance. The flange that can be directly attached to various collaborative robots is integrated, allowing for easy installation.

• Vacuum Equipment

Achieving top-level suction power with a compact body the size of a business card! A type compatible with energy-saving features and IO-Link communication is also available in the lineup!

The Compact Ejector SCPM series is a space-saving vacuum generator equipped with various functions in a compact body. There are three models available based on functionality, starting with the basic model 'SCPMb' that enables vacuum suction and vacuum release, the 'SCPMc' which includes a display switch capable of showing status monitoring results and energy-saving features, and the high-function model 'SCPMi' that allows for the confirmation of various information such as monitoring results and equipment settings from outside the facility, allowing you to choose according to your application. 【Features】 〇 High-efficiency, ultra-compact vacuum generator the size of a business card → Achieves maximum suction power with minimal space 〇 Simplified wiring design → Reduces clutter from cables and eases wiring work 〇 Energy-saving features included (SCPMc / SCPMi) → Equipped with an air-saving function that reduces compressed air consumption by up to 80% 〇 Up to 16 ejectors can be manifolded → Reduces installation labor and connection component costs with simplified wiring and piping.

A touring system that achieves high precision design and easy assembly!

SXT is a touring system consisting of approximately 150 types of parts. By combining holders for pipes, clamps, and vacuum pads, you can design the hand freely. As a highly expandable modular system, it allows for the creation of optimal shapes tailored to specific applications. Since it consists of simple parts, assembly and modification are also easy. Managing parts individually enables space-saving storage and maintenance of spare parts. The parts are made from lightweight and highly durable 6000 series aluminum, allowing for weight reduction of the hand. This reduces the load on the robot, achieving high-speed and stable transport, contributing to increased takt time.

• Vacuum Equipment

Reduction of "section changes," a versatile robotic hand that accommodates a wide range of industries.

The FXP/FMP series universal vacuum grippers are large robotic hands that use sponge or suction pads on the gripping surface. They are very effective for handling workpieces with gaps that are difficult to grip with vacuum pads, workpieces that are not positioned accurately, and for bulk transport of various sizes of workpieces. They are used mounted on industrial robots such as press transfer robots and palletizing robots. The configuration of the vacuum gripper allows for the selection of optimal specifications according to individual applications, including the presence or absence of a vacuum generator, the type of gripping surface, gripper size, and valve type.

[Speaker] PwC Consulting LLC PwC Intelligence Manager Toshinori Tomizawa [Key Lecture Content] The defense industry is gaining attention as a field for growth strategy consideration, while also facing constraints such as declining birth rates, supply chain vulnerabilities, and uncertainties in business continuity. This lecture will reframe the defense industry not merely as a supplier of equipment but as an industrial structure that includes technology, supply chains, and economic security, based on the published report "Environmental Changes Surrounding the Defense Industry and Corporate Choices." It will then present the potential for Japanese companies to participate and the criteria for decision-making, centered around the "International Supply Model," which consists of three forms: export of completed equipment, international joint development and production, and regional maintenance hubs. [Lecture Items] 1. Environmental changes surrounding the defense industry 2. Structural constraints faced by Japan's defense production and technology base 3. "International Supply Model" based on international cooperation 4. Potential for Japanese companies to participate in the defense sector 5. Criteria for decision-making regarding involvement in the defense sector 6. Future outlook for the defense industry and choices required from companies 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Instructor] Kyoko Kawasaki, President and CEO, First Innovatec Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] This seminar will explain the thinking necessary to enhance the quality of decision-making in research and development themes. In recent years, while the importance of research and development investment has increased, challenges have emerged where traditional cost-effectiveness and numerical indicators are insufficient for evaluation, particularly when the applications and markets for technology are uncertain. In such situations, it is crucial to not only gather data but also to reassess the "perspective on decision-making," including what to capture, how to interpret it, and under what conditions to make judgments. In this seminar, we will organize the basic structure of evaluation centered on the relationships between technology, applications, and markets, and discuss the factors that distort decision-making as well as the thought processes for making judgments on themes with high uncertainty. Additionally, we will address how to compare and select multiple research and development themes from various perspectives and how organizations should design their decision-making processes. The aim is not merely to introduce evaluation methods but to clarify what perspectives should be held in actual decision-making, thereby contributing to the improvement of the quality of judgment regarding research and development investments within one's own company.

Henkel Japan Corporation, the Japanese subsidiary of the German chemical and consumer goods manufacturer Henkel (Headquarters: Shinagawa, Tokyo; President: Seiji Asaoka), will exhibit at the "Automotive Engineering Exposition 2026 YOKOHAMA" to be held at Pacifico Yokohama from May 27 to 29, 2026 (the entire event, including the online ONLINE STAGE 1, will run from May 19 to June 9, 2026). At the Henkel Japan booth, we will conduct a peeling demonstration of our developed product "Easily Disassemblable Adhesive (Electric Type)" for EV batteries.
