We will be exhibiting examples of metal powder applications for sintered transmission gears and SMC vehicle motor cores online at the "2021 ONLINE Automotive Technology Exhibition"!

High-load sintered gears produced by powder metallurgy can shorten the gear manufacturing process to less than 1/4, providing a new option that not only reduces size and weight but also improves gear characteristics.

The technology of powder metallurgy (PM) is widely adopted in various fields, including the automotive industry, as a sustainable "green" technology with a high material utilization rate (yield) close to 100% and low total energy consumption. By optimizing materials, process conditions, and design, it enables significant reductions in the number of steps previously required for processes such as gear cutting from steel, as well as lightweight and compact gear designs. Additionally, it allows for improvements in gear characteristics such as NVH, along with the addition of desired high functionality. 【Features】 - Elimination of gear cutting and hobbing allows for more than a 25% reduction in process time. - Significant reduction in the number of manufacturing equipment and installation area is possible. - Over 20% weight reduction can be achieved without additional processing steps such as hollowing or thinning. - A 15% reduction in bending and impact stress is possible with shape designs that are difficult with conventional methods. - Shape features such as marking can be added without any additional processes. - Integrated forming of gears and synchro cones can eliminate welding and preliminary processing steps. 【Exhibition Information】 Exhibition Name: 2021 Automotive Technology Exhibition Date: May 24 (Wed) to May 26 (Fri), 2021, 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (until 5:00 PM on the final day) Venue: Pacifico Yokohama Exhibition Hall (Booth Number: 160)

Does your organization face these challenges? ✅ Lack of proactive proposals: Relying on existing customers and failing to develop new ones ✅ Variability in the quality of hearings: Unable to extract essential needs and missing out on opportunities ✅ Information becoming a black box: Sales status is only in the minds of sales representatives and not part of the organization's knowledge Many manufacturing companies face the "dependency on existing customers." Why is it difficult to grow sales? We will identify the causes and provide specific methods to create a "system that anyone can sell." 【Recommended for】 - Those who want to break free from relying on existing customers and actively increase sales - Those who want to strengthen the proposal capabilities of the entire sales organization through standardized hearings - Those who want to eliminate dependency on individuals and accurately visualize the progress of projects ＞For more details, please see below 【Details of this news and application】.

In recent years, with the advancement of digitalization, companies have accumulated vast amounts of data. However, many companies face challenges such as "we have data, but we don't know how to handle it" and "data is isolated by department, lacking reliability (data silos)." No matter how vast the data is, if it cannot be valued, it is "a treasure wasted." In this webinar, we will explain the overall picture of data utilization step by step, from practical tips to streamline daily Excel tasks to advanced analysis using BI tools. We will organize the roles and specific applications of ETL for automating data processing, DWH (data warehouse) for centralized management, and BI tools for accelerating decision-making, and share the "mindset" needed to gain new insights centered around data. - Feeling limited by manual data aggregation in Excel - Data is scattered by department, making it difficult to see company-wide figures quickly - Want to know the "first step in data utilization" that can be started at the operational level If you have any of these concerns, please join us.

We are pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting at the 39th Annual Meeting of the Japan Society of Synchrotron Radiation Research and the Joint Symposium on Synchrotron Science, organized by the organizing committee. We invite you to visit us and take this opportunity to see our products. At our exhibition space, we will be introducing X-Spectrum and XCAM. We look forward to your visit.
