basic information

In industries that handle hazardous materials and heavy objects, there is a growing demand for explosion-proof and heat-resistant robotic systems due to the prevalence of explosive atmospheres and high-risk environments. However, the reality is that there are very few robot system integrators capable of addressing these needs. At Cosmo Giken, we can build automation systems in areas where human access is restricted through explosion-proof robots compliant with Class 1 hazardous locations (Zone 1), heat-resistant robots capable of withstanding temperatures up to 1250 degrees, and corrosion-resistant structures for environments with toxic gas emissions, as well as remote site support systems. Additionally, we can achieve "smart factory" integration by collaborating with critical components such as the customer's upper-level CPU.

Track Record of Delivering Explosion-Proof Robot Equipment Clients include major industry players such as JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency), Japan Nuclear Fuel Limited (Rokkasho Village, Aomori Prefecture), Toa Gosei (Yokohama Plant), Denka (Omuta Plant), Kawasaki Heavy Industries (Nagoya No. 2 Plant), Okuma (Head Office Plant, Kani Plant), Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (Nagoya Guided Propulsion Systems Works, Kobe Shipyard, Takasago Plant), LIXIL (Ibaraki Plant), JFE Steel (Chita Works), and Nippon Steel (Steelworks). The projects undertaken here involve the construction of high-difficulty equipment and systems that are often avoided by other companies due to their "hazardous materials, heavy objects, high temperatures, and explosion-proof specifications." For example, handling heavy products weighing up to 700 kg with robots or managing high-temperature products at around 1250 degrees is made possible at Cosmo Giken. Additionally, a complex image processing system that combines 2D and 3D cameras has also been developed.
