Kaken Seiko's new transfer equipment

Kaken Seiko (Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture) has developed a new type of compact, single-bar transfer device that can be retrofitted to press machines. The company will start offering the product at the end of July. The price will be determined in the future. The company aims to sell 1,060 units a year. Three types of KTES series single-bar transfer machines will be available. The KTES series already uses the same method, but this time it uses linear servo motors. Depending on the stroke of each axis and the angle of motion assignment, the number of shots of the press machine can be increased from 50 to 75 per minute, which increases productivity. The manufacturer of the press machine to install this equipment is not required. First, we will introduce the 1200 mm wide x 1350 mm deep minimum x 180 mm high type. We will sequentially offer different types for different sizes of presses. Photo taken on June 6, 2019, location unknown, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images

          Production line for On-Awa, a solid bath salt sold by Earth Chemical Co.

          Each line is equipped with one robot that collects the correct number of bath salts and transfers them to the boxing process. The collecting robots are made by Kawasaki Heavy Industries, and in front of each of the four robots, bath salts produced in its own line are placed. If a problem occurs in the production line and bath salts do not flow, the robots automatically determine the problem and accumulate the stored bath salts. If the stoppage is for a short time, it will not affect the accumulation work. Shigekazu Terada, plant manager of the Ako Plant in Ako City, Hyogo Prefecture, says, 'We are also using robots in the process of stacking product cases on pallets, and both types of robots are contributing to efficiency.

                    SCREEN SPE Works' tablet powder removal machine

                    SCREEN SPE Works' tablet powder removal machine

                    Screen Speworks (Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture) has developed a tablet powder remover that removes powder that adheres to tablets when they are formed. The machine can process 300,000 tablets in one hour and reduce the adhesion rate to about 0.5% per tablet. The selling price is still under adjustment, and the company plans to sell the machine to pharmaceutical companies and confectionery manufacturers. When raw powder is compressed to form tablets, uncompressed powder adheres to the surface of the tablet. The powder may adhere to the lens of the camera during inspection, causing problems. The powder removal machine developed by SCREEN SPE Works uses air to remove the powder, so there is less risk of damage. Atsuhiro Hayashi, leader of the New Business Development Group, said, "Before we can commercialize the product, we need to have it evaluated by actual users. How to develop the market is our future challenge. Photo taken on July 25, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images
