[Video Now Available!] NEXTAGE Utilization Case "Appearance Inspection"

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. [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.

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!

Further pursuit of weight reduction and compactness. Standard equipped with a stereo camera. Laser scanners and handheld cameras can also be added.

"Fillie" is the latest model in the humanoid collaborative robot "NEXTAGE series." While leveraging the features of previous models, it has been developed based on three concepts: "compact size," "cost performance," and "highly compatible design," further enhancing its practicality. It can be utilized not only in production environments but also in various scenes involving human interaction. 【Features】 ■ Number of joints: 15 axes (6 axes for each arm, 1 axis for the waist, 2 axes for the neck) ■ Repetitive positioning accuracy: ±0.05mm ■ Equipped with a stereo camera in the head ■ Optional additions such as laser scanners and hand cameras are available ■ Compatible with AC100-240V *Please refer to the accompanying materials. Additionally, from April to June 2022 (scheduled), we will hold live demonstrations of "Fillie" in three cities nationwide: Tokyo, Aichi, and Osaka. If you wish to participate, please feel free to contact us!

We provide intuitive operation and standard software that allows for functional expansion!

NEXTAGE comes standard with its proprietary software "NxProduction," which is used for operation, teaching, and production. Teaching with NxProduction can be intuitively operated through a graphical interface, making it easy for on-site operators to make modifications and adjustments. The teaching is conducted in a "workflow" format, where teaching points, visual processing, and external input/output (I/O) are registered in a table on the GUI according to the planned work procedures, allowing for easy creation of tasks incorporating image processing without programming skills. As after-sales service for our customers, we also offer various support services such as NEXTAGE training sessions and online support. We will assist customers in maximizing their use of NEXTAGE even after purchase.

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 to 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.

SPACECOOL Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce that it will exhibit at the "Japan Pavilion" established by the Ministry of the Environment at the 30th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP30), which will be held in Belém, Brazil, from November 10, 2025. "SPACECOOL" is a radiative cooling material that enables zero-energy cooling by dissipating heat into space. At our exhibition booth, we will showcase examples of its use not only in reducing air conditioning energy in buildings but also in heat mitigation measures (adaptation strategies) for tents and parasols. The Japan Pavilion aims to promote excellent technologies, products, and services that support global decarbonization and adaptation to climate change, and to achieve Japan's long-term climate change goal of "net zero by 2050." We believe that our participation plays an important role in this endeavor. Through this exhibition, we aim to accelerate our initiatives with local partners in regions severely affected by heat issues, such as the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, as well as Southeast Asia, contributing to global decarbonization and climate change measures.
