Sanwa Robotics to Strengthen Sales of Loader System

Sanwa Robotics (Iida City, Nagano Prefecture) will strengthen sales of the "NEXSRT" series of 6-axis robotic loader systems for machining centers (MCs). The company will enhance its ability to make proposals to customers by expanding its on-the-job training menu to teach the operation know-how to two young employees in charge of sales. In addition to the conventional standard type, the company will soon add an entry-level model, with the aim of capturing a wide range of demand.

    Station-side robot demonstration experiment started by Connected Robotics and others

    On the 16th, Connected Robotics (Koganei City, Tokyo), in collaboration with JR East Startup (Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo) and Nippon Restaurant Enterprise (Taito Ward, Tokyo), began a demonstration experiment of an "ekisoba (buckwheat noodle) robot" at a soba (buckwheat noodle) restaurant in JR Higashi Koganei Station. The aim of the experiment is to verify the practicality of the robot in actual shops, and to introduce it to other shops in the future and automate the entire operation. The boiling machine and sink were also custom-made to fit the robot. In the future, the company hopes to increase the processing capacity of the robot and introduce it at stores with a large number of customers, such as Shinjuku and Kanda in Tokyo.

      Hyogo Seimitsu Kogyosho builds its own robot system.

      Hyogo Seimitsu Kogyosho (Hyogo Ward, Kobe City) has started to build a robot system to improve productivity within the company. In the past, cast parts weighing several dozen kilograms were manually fed into machine tools and the finished products were taken out. The tip of the robot's arm was developed and manufactured independently, and a light-weight yet high-strength mechanism that can withstand the transportation of heavy objects was adopted. The lathe process can be reduced to about one-third of the conventional process, which will lead to an optimal allocation of human resources in the plant. At the Sasayama Plant, the products to be processed by each machine tool are separated, minimizing the need for setup changes. The company aims to further improve its production efficiency by optimizing the use of robots within the company.

        KAIWA's stainless steel vise for MC

        KAIWA's stainless steel vise for MC

        Kaiwa (Uenohara City, Yamanashi Prefecture) has launched a new stainless steel 5-direction centering vise for machining centers (MCs) that holds workpieces from four directions on both sides of the XY axis. It is suitable for ultra-precision machining of workpieces up to 50 mm in length and 60 mm in width using a 5-axis MC. The mouthpiece is interchangeable to suit the machining purpose. Even rectangular or round-shaped workpieces can be held securely. Both Y-axis and X-axis workpieces are fixed in the center position by separate screw tightening operations. "Mr. Yamazoe says, "The unique structure of the machine, which has no internal bearing mechanism, prevents rattling even after long-term use. The clamping jig of the optional vise has elasticity to soften the impact when the machining head and other parts collide. The vise is assembled from multiple parts. The external size is 120mm (length) x 110mm (width) x 90mm (height). Photo taken on November 1, 2019, credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images
          Electrical discharge machine introduced by Nagatsu Manufacturing as part of its work automation efforts.

          Electrical discharge machine introduced by Nagatsu Manufacturing as part of its work automation efforts.

          Nagatsu Seisakusho will begin automating its main plant to improve the efficiencyof machining die parts. The company will introduce work changers for 5-axis machining centers (MC) and other equipment to replace processed parts. The company plans to introduce several 5-axis MCs and work changers as a set if they are utilized smoothly. The installation cost is about 10 million yen. Workers without machining skills only need to take the workpiece and electrodes in and out of the shelves at the site. The company's domestic sales are about 1.6 billion yen. However, the domestic mold market is shrinking. Rather than expanding sales, this automation initiative is aimed at strengthening cost competitiveness and promoting work style reform. Once the automation at the head office plant gets going, the company plans to start automation at the Niigata plant in Mitsuke City, Niigata Prefecture in two to three years.

            Large-scale vacuum brazing furnace installed by Pureron Japan.

            Pureron Japan (Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture) started operation of "the fourth factory" that manufactures the metal processing precision parts. The production system is strengthened by investing 2 billion yen. Pureron Japan manufactures filters and other products, mainly sensors for semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Semiconductor-related products account for 80% of the company's sales, and industrial and medical equipment accounts for 20%. It was judged that the market of the precision equipment related to the semiconductor would grow in the world, and it was decided to strengthen the production system greatly together with the medical equipment to be strengthened from now on. The fourth plant has a floor space of 2,100 square meters. (September 2, 2019, Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture; Credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images)
