Announcement of Video Release: "ASPINA Robot Hand" × "NEXTAGE"

A case study on the use of NEXTAGE for the full automation of the maintenance parts warehouse! We will share real feedback from our users.

The humanoid robot "NEXTAGE" has been introduced in various manufacturing sites since its launch, expanding its areas of activity. This time, we visited the site of Makino Technical Service Co., Ltd., which has implemented NEXTAGE and built a picking system using robots. We will share the sight of NEXTAGE at work and the voices of those who have constructed this process and are working alongside NEXTAGE!

"NEXTAGE" is a dual-arm robot developed under the concept of "a humanoid robot that works alongside people," aimed at ensuring safety in manufacturing environments and improving productivity. Since its launch, it has been adopted by companies across a wide range of industries, including electronics, electronic components, and more, successfully automating tasks that previously required human labor, such as assembly, inspection, and packaging. We have received numerous inquiries such as, "What specific tasks can it perform?" and "I would like to know some examples." To help you understand the implementation and work image, we have prepared a "case study collection" that summarizes the tasks that this product excels at and links to videos of implementation examples. [Contents (excerpt)] - Picking in logistics warehouses - Automation of visual inspection tasks - Screw tightening - Labeling - Box packing - Automated driving integrated with AGV - Packaging box assembly and packing (new applications using NEXTAGE) *You can view detailed information immediately by downloading the PDF.

[Points for Automation Process Automation Available] Immediate solution for automation and labor-saving in manufacturing sites! NEXTAGE dual-arm robot system equipped with standard vision system.

"NEXTAGE" was developed under the concept of "humanoid robots that work alongside people" with the aim of ensuring safety in manufacturing environments and improving productivity. It possesses safety features equivalent to collaborative robots and utilizes its high versatility to recognize surrounding environments and tasks, enabling the automation of labor-intensive operations such as assembly, inspection, and packaging across a wide range of industries, including electrical and electronic components. It frees workers from simple repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on process management and improvement activities. 【Features】 ■ Since its launch, it has been adopted by leading companies in various industries. ■ In 2018, it underwent a model change that improved its power and speed. ■ NEXTAGE solves processes that were previously difficult to automate with dedicated machines or single-arm robots. ■ It achieves tasks currently performed by humans with minimal environmental changes using a vision system in the head and two arms, among other features. *In addition to the catalog, we are also providing materials on automation points in production processes using dual-arm robots. Please feel free to contact us for inquiries.

We present a demo video of the humanoid robot "NEXTAGE" packaging tube products into bags and boxes.

In industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food products, the quantity and shape are frequently changed with each season, necessitating variable production. Before the introduction of 'NEXTAGE', automation was considered difficult. We will introduce a new form of automation achieved by adding a few clever modifications to the surrounding supply and discharge devices, in addition to the inherent dexterity of the humanoid robot 'NEXTAGE', through a video. ■ Work Process Align tube products stacked flat on a conveyor Load tube products into pouches Heat seal the pouches and pack the finished products into boxes For more details, please check the video below or feel free to contact us.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
