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!

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!

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.

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 humanoid collaborative robot "NEXTAGE" has been adopted for an automated appearance inspection application powered by AI provided by Kanematsu Corporation!

In recent years, to realize the automation of "visual inspection," which has been requested by many industries and companies, Kanematsu Corporation has started providing visual inspection services using the AI-based image inspection service "AIPENET." Among these, the humanoid robot "NEXTAGE," known for its high versatility in performing tasks related to visual inspection, has been adopted as a robot to carry out the preceding and subsequent tasks, creating an application that automates both visual inspection and related tasks in one go. Kanematsu Corporation offers a subscription plan called "Marugoto Subscription Plan," which provides the necessary AI (visual inspection service) and hardware (robot) for the entire automation process of visual inspection in a bundled subscription format, significantly reducing initial costs and allowing for immediate operational deployment. Furthermore, Kanematsu Corporation is currently running a limited-time free PoC campaign for "AIPENET." Please feel free to consult with us during this opportunity. <By automating visual inspection, we solve the following issues!> - Quality is unstable due to operator errors - Reliance on operators' intuition and skills - Difficulty in securing operators - Time-consuming training for operators

We would like to introduce "Stability 2" handled by FCR and Bio Co., Ltd. This product is a jacket tube with a rack lid lock and anti-rotation function (compatible capacity 2.1ml). Additionally, for products equipped with the rack ID function, a 2D code for rack ID is provided on the bottom surface of the rack, allowing simultaneous reading of the tube ID (bottom surface 2D code) and rack ID within the rack, thereby reducing stress on samples during the reading process. 【Features】 ■ Polypropylene ■ Autoclavable ■ DMSO compatible ■ Compatible with liquid nitrogen vapor *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Fukuda's new flagship model. - Masterless type (FLA-0200 series) - General type (FLA-0201 series) Two models of air leak testers. With the mastering correction function, high-precision measurements can be achieved in a short time. Please take a look at the catalog.

What is an Air Leak Tester? An "Air Leak Tester" is a device that pressurizes the inside (or outside) of a sealed workpiece with air and determines the presence of leaks based on pressure changes. When a master with no leaks and a workpiece with leaks are pressurized, the pressure on the workpiece side decreases, creating a pressure difference between the two. By measuring this pressure difference, the presence of leaks can be determined. Generally, differential pressure air leak testing is widely used, but Fukuda also offers products that utilize direct pressure leak testing and flow meters according to the leak rate, in addition to differential pressure leak testers. Since the air leak tester uses air as the measurement medium, it incurs no running costs and is environmentally friendly.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I’m worried about not colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surroundings with LED lights and buzzers. The device consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *Please note that a separate control panel is required to include the controller and switching power supply (24V) when using the exit warning system. *We kindly ask that customers arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breakers, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. We hope this will contribute to safer vehicle passage for everyone. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
