Production scheduler for small and medium-sized manufacturing businesses.

"Seiryu" is a production scheduler suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises engaged in small-batch, multi-variety production. It allows users to check the load conditions of equipment and work schedules on the system, facilitating smooth planning adjustments for urgent orders and special requests. Additionally, by registering criteria such as priority and constraints for planning, it enables quick production planning based on common standards. 【Features】 ■ Can be linked with sales management systems, production management systems, etc. ■ Automatically allocates equipment based on load conditions ■ Contributes to the elimination of dependency on specific individuals and streamlining planning tasks ■ Allows for comparison between planned and actual times, facilitating the PDCA cycle.

• Production Management System

This is a production management system developed for small and medium-sized enterprises engaged in multi-variety, low-volume parts processing.

**[Introduction Effects]** ■ OA (Office Automation) Effects - The data import functions of Excel and EDI can significantly reduce input labor. - Progress status can be viewed by anyone at any time, reducing the effort of searching for items on-site. - The operation of handheld terminals can greatly shorten the time required for cost aggregation. ■ Strengthening Progress and Delivery Management and Cost Reduction Effects - During order placement, data such as past purchase prices can be easily referenced for price negotiations. - Individual costs per production number can be grasped in real-time, allowing for measures to achieve profitability. - By issuing work instructions, productivity can be improved, real-time processing progress can be monitored, and load adjustments can be made as needed, leading to reduced labor costs (increased productivity) and adherence to and shortening of delivery times. ■ Improvement and Sustained Effects on Profit Structure (Company Quality) - Management and veteran employees can be freed from administrative tasks, allowing them to focus on product development and customer acquisition utilizing their experience and knowledge. - During estimation and calculation, quick and accurate estimates can be created based on past similar cost records, facilitating advantageous sales activities to secure high-quality orders. - The results of improvement effects will be actively visualized and showcased, drawing out the motivation of all employees through fair numerical evaluations.

In civil engineering sites during extreme heat, the surface temperature of the ground plates and the heat reflection significantly affect the working environment. In particular, steel plates tend to retain heat when exposed to sunlight, posing challenges for workers' heatstroke prevention and safety management. Hyper CLT ground plates are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT. As wooden ground plates, they can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways, making them a versatile alternative to steel plates in various civil engineering sites. In actual sites, there are cases where the surface temperature differs by about 20 degrees compared to steel plates, making them effective as a solution for heat prevention and reflection suppression. The 5×10 plate weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 plate weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. They are materials that easily promote noise reduction, CO2 fixation, and environmental consideration unique to wood. Registered as a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS technology "TH-250021-A," they can also be utilized for creative ideas and safety measures in public works. They are recommended for companies looking to reassess the summer site environment. We also accept inquiries for consultations and requests for materials tailored to site conditions. We can propose solutions for temporary plans during summer for both public and private civil engineering projects. Please feel free to consult with us.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding methods for repairs often change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which constantly carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made 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 or download the catalog.
