Taiwan-made general-purpose lathe "SJ series" imported and sold by TAKAMATSU MACHINE TOOL CO.

Interest in the SJ series ofgeneral-purpose lathes manufactured by Taiwan's Yu-Chia Industrial Group and imported and sold by Takamatsu Machinery is slowly increasing. Takamatsu Machinery has been dealing with the product since 2008, when it formed a partnership with Tomoka Jitsugyo. The reason for the interest is that the machine is priced at 3.3 million yen (excluding consumption tax), which is less expensive than domestically produced machines, yet it has the necessary rigidity and functions. Takamatsu believes that small and medium-sized factories have a deep-seated demand for general-purpose machines that are convenient for small-scale processing and that they would like to have one of these machines. The company plans to create opportunities to see the machines at exhibitions and other events as needed. Photo taken on October 26, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images

    Good Eye (Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture) will release GUD Sheet, a copper fiber sheet with antibacterial and antiviral effects, in June. The company commercialized four types of masks, including one priced at 4,980 yen (excluding consumption tax). The GUD sheet is a polymer fiber covered with copper foil and coated with a visible light responsive photocatalyst. In an experiment on bacteriophage, a virus that infects bacteria, it was confirmed that rubbing a finger covered with the virus on the sheet for 30 seconds reduced the number of the virus to less than 1/1000.Professor Hideyuki Itabashi of the Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Gunma University, who also serves as the company's chairman, said, "We hope to start experiments in July.

      Manaorana, shoes developed and sold by Lyle that can be worn by people with disabilities

      He began developing the shoes after realizing that there were few shoes that could be worn while wearing a lower limb orthosis to assist with walking. The shoes are designed with wider tips and widths so that the lower-limb orthoses do not interfere with the shoes. In addition, the shoes can be put on and taken off with one hand so that people with partial body disabilities can also wear them. Currently, business shoes and pumps are available. They are priced between 34,000 and 49,800 yen, excluding consumption tax. There are requests to use the shoes for job-hunting activities and ceremonies, and the company plans to start renting them in fiscal 2008.

          Panasonic will increase its share of the domestic market for 60-inch and larger electronic blackboards to 30% (4,000 units) in fiscal 2008, up 10 percentage points from fiscal 2006, using 4K high-definition touch-screen LCD displays. The estimated market price is 600,000 yen (excluding consumption tax) for the 65-inch model and 1,400,000 yen for the 75-inch model. A new "comparison mode" that can display up to nine screens has been added so that multiple opinions can be shown on the display and shared in group learning. Up to four teaching materials can be displayed so that digital textbooks can be used effectively. It has acquired "Color Universal Design Certification" for its color scheme, which is distinguishable even by people with color blindness. Sharp (36%), Panasonic (25%), and NEC (16%) hold the largest share of the domestic market for commercial displays.

            NEC's vector-based simulated annealing machine

            NEC is making a full-scale entry into the quantum computing domain. From April to June 2020, the company will launch a co-creation service to solve combinatorial optimization problems, including the use of annealing machines that employ the SX Aurora Tsubasa vector supercomputer. Prior to this, the company will establish a new 20-person Quantum Computing Promotion Office in January 2008 to promote the development of applications and technologies through joint demonstrations with customers. The company plans to invest about 1 billion yen in Canada's D-Wave Systems for collaboration. On the other hand, the quantum annealing system will be based on a domestically developed machine jointly developed with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) and D-wave, which will be a collaborative partner. The joint development with AIST is currently verifying the operation of a basic quantum cell. Photo taken on December 20, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images

                    Unmanned forklift trucks installed by Yamazaki Mazak at the Minokamo Plant No. 2.

                    Yamazaki Mazak has restructured and integrated the No. 1 and No. 2 plants of its mainstay Minokamo Plant (Minokamo City, Gifu Prefecture) from product-based to assembly and parts processing functions, and opened them to the press and customers. The company introduced its first radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for parts and unmanned forklift trucks (AGFLs), and also utilized the Internet of Things (IoT), automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and digital twins to increase the monthly production capacity to 350 units, a 50% increase over the previous capacity. The Minokamo Plant is responsible for 60% of Yamazaki Mazak's domestic production. The first and second plants are about 600 meters apart and were previously operated as separate factories. With the reorganization of Minokamo, the smartification of domestic factories has come full circle. Yamazaki Mazak's Minokamo Plant No. 2 in Minokamo, Gifu Prefecture, November 25, 2019.

                      Orevo, a convenience store, has introduced an AI-based automatic checkout system for side dishes.

                      Orevo, a convenience store, has introduced an AI-based automatic checkout system for side dishes.

                      In the convenience store industry, where intensifying competition has been combined with a shortage of labor, the three major companies are workingto demonstrate unmanned cash registers and review 24-hour operations. In such a situation, Ishida (Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City), a long-established weighing scale manufacturer, has teamed up with Orebo, a regional convenience store in Fukui Prefecture, to develop a new system that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to save labor at the cash register. The price of the system, excluding consumption tax, is about 3 million yen. Although it is more expensive than Ishida's regular scales, it is expected to save labor in processing and cooking areas of supermarkets in addition to stores that handle side dishes, and inquiries are strong.
