Company information
At the end of 2000, our company took over experimental equipment such as SCANET and LOCOMO from the Medical Device Division of Fine Nex (formerly Toyo Sangyo Co., Ltd.) and became independent and established. In addition to motion measurement devices like SCANET, which has a track record of 30 years since its release, we develop and manufacture unique animal experimental equipment, including feeding amount measurement devices with feeding restriction functions.
