[Video Now Available!] NEXTAGE Utilization Case "Screw Tightening"

A document that includes links to instructional videos for picking, inspection, assembly, screw tightening, and packing.

"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.

The reason that company adopted NEXTAGE! ～～A handbook that engineers tackling production automation missions should read～

The introduction of the humanoid dual-arm robot "NEXTAGE" began in the assembly processes of automotive parts and electronic/electrical machinery, but in recent years it has expanded to include packaging of daily necessities and cosmetics, as well as testing processes for reagents. Currently, it has been adopted by over 100 companies in Japan. As such, "NEXTAGE" has been implemented by companies in various industries, but there is a common point among many of these companies, regardless of their industry. That is, they planned to "automate multiple tasks" and "replace human labor" through the introduction of NEXTAGE.

In civil engineering sites, the use of sheet piling methods is essential for safely utilizing the site, including temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and worker pathways. Traditionally, steel plates have been widely used, but due to their weight, they can be cumbersome to transport, install, and remove. Hyper CLT sheet piles are civil engineering materials made from wooden CLT for civil use. The 5×10 panel weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle with small machinery, contributing to reduced burdens during installation and improved work efficiency. They can be utilized in a wide range of civil engineering sites for measures against muddy conditions, ground protection, heavy machinery scaffolding, and ensuring pedestrian pathways. As a registered technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS "TH-250021-A," it is also recommended as a material for innovative ideas, safety measures, and environmental considerations in public works.

Fukuda Co., Ltd. has been pursuing leak detection for 60 years and is committed to advancing the future of leak testing. 【 Supporting Various Leak Tests: Air Leak Test / Gas Leak Test (Hydrogen Gas, Helium Gas) 】 We develop, manufacture, and sell leak testing equipment to inspect airtightness and sealing properties. We will propose the appropriate testers and devices for each inspection target. 【 Target Industries and Examples of Inspection Targets 】 - Automotive Industry: Engines, FC components, valves and piping, various parts - Electronic Components Industry: Smartphones, keyless switches, various small sensors - Pharmaceuticals / Food / Cosmetics Industry: Bottle containers, syringes, vials, eye drop containers, pillow packaging, PTP packaging We will propose the most suitable leak testers for each industry. 【 ISO Certification 】JIS Q 9001:2015 (ISO 9001:2015)

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery workspaces, and material storage areas use ground plates. Traditional steel plates are heavy, requiring large machinery for installation and removal, which can make work difficult in narrow sites. Hyper CLT ground plates are lightweight civil engineering CLT materials made from wooden CLT for civil use. A 5×10 plate weighs about 230 kg, and a 5×20 plate weighs about 460 kg, making them easy to handle even with small machinery, thus reducing the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. They are easy to use in sites with limited space or where the use of large machinery is difficult. They can be widely used for temporary roads, heavy machinery scaffolding, pathways within the site, and material storage protection, contributing to glare reduction, noise reduction, and environmental consideration. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," they are also recommended as materials for innovative ideas and safety measures in public works.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies.
