    CNC Turning Center Installed by Tobata Ironworks

    Tobata Ironworks (Kokura Minami-ku, Kitakyushu City) has introduced a large computer numerical control (CNC) turning center with a table diameter of 4,000 mm. The company had been using separate machines for turning and drilling, but as the workpieces have become larger and the time required for moving and processing them has increased, the company has decided to use a single machine to improve efficiency. Recently, the company has also been focusing on machining, and President Yasuda said, "There are few casting manufacturers that have such large machining equipment. We expect to differentiate ourselves from the competition and increase added value by reducing man-hours. A turning center is a numerically controlled (NC) machine tool that is a combination of a lathe. A turning center is a numerically controlled (NC) machine tool that is a combination of a lathe.

      Double Giken's Communication Tool for ALS Patients

      Double Giken has developed a technology to identify the words a patient thinks from the blood flow in the brain and project them on a screen for ALS patients who cannot move their eyelids or fingers. The technology is based on a device that uses near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to determine "yes/no" from brain activity. The patient selects one word at a time and only the vowel sound of the word to be communicated, and the number of words is used to analogize the candidate words to be communicated and show them on the screen. The system, which consists of a personal computer and a terminal, will go on sale in September at the earliest. It was developed with the support of the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) in collaboration with Professor Naoki Tanaka of Toyo University and others.
