For those who are in charge of new business and have trouble deciding where to start
Even in industries that have been far from electronics, with the advent of new technologies such as AI and IoT, an increasing number of companies are looking to incorporate technology to solve business issues, improve efficiency, and increase value. Such needs are increasing in a wide range of industries, but customers outside the electronics industry often do not have in-house engineers, have no knowledge of technology, and are faced with the problem of not knowing where to turn for advice. .
Even when I seek advice, I worry that things will be done according to the person's logic, that I will be boxed in, and that I will be exploited for what I don't know. It comes with it. Under such circumstances, there is a need for a professional counselor who can be consulted with peace of mind.

Would you like to shape your ideas together?
In modern times, it has become quite difficult to develop innovative products. On the other hand, existing products and services will inevitably become obsolete, requiring a change in thinking. One of the breakthroughs is the conversion of products and services to IoT and electronics, and the "manufacturing consulting" service is a service that helps realize this.
For example, in the fields of health and beauty, many healthcare products that utilize IoT technology have appeared and are being used for daily health management. Also, in the familiar food field, we are now in an era where IoT technology allows us to safely purchase high-quality food using smartphones. This movement is happening in most industries, and it is now an urgent issue for any company to convert existing products and services into IoT and electronics.
As a technology trading the Company, we will make full use of our technological capabilities, knowledge, experience, and information network that we have cultivated over many years to provide "manufacturing support" that accelerates innovation and solves the problems of new customers who will introduce electronics in the future. Masu.
We want to improve our products and services for future business development.
the Company have provided support for companies that are starting manufacturing for the first time in various industries and industries. Here are some examples.
1. First product IoT
Request:
We want to install sensors and wireless functions (data acquisition by smartphones, etc.) in our products.
Suggestions:
Select the optimal sensor for the object to be sensed and the compact and multi-functional wireless (Bluetooth) module. In addition, we propose both hardware and software, such as miniaturization of substrates that can be embedded in products and application development for smartphones.
Consultant's voice:
It was the first time for the Company to introduce IoT to a product, so we had a hard time choosing a company to consult with. has become clear. Currently, based on the results obtained through commercialization, we are assisting in the development of the second product.
2. Electronics for new products
Request:
We want to introduce electronics into existing products in order to meet new product needs.
Suggestions:
We heard that the purpose was to add a function to measure specific data to an existing product, so we selected several sensors and proposed a measurement method and implementation verification. After that, repeated verification and review, establishment of measurement methods, and incorporation into actual products.
Consultant's voice:
We wanted to take the opportunity of renewing the current product to make it electronic, increase its value, and respond to new customer needs. The customer was making products in an industry different from the electronics field, and they seemed to have some concerns at first, but with their enthusiasm and cooperation, we were able to convert the product to electronics through experiments and verifications in various environments. I think we were able to do it.
3. Application of in-house technology (expansion of business domain)
Request:
We want to improve the accuracy and speed of data sensing in existing products.
Suggestions:
A discussion was held based on the data measured by the customer in various environments. In order to perform high-precision sensing, we found that it was necessary to change the base equipment in addition to changing the sensor, so we proposed a change in the structure of the equipment as well.
Consultant's voice:
The sensor we proposed was a product of a manufacturer that could not be found on the customer's conventional information network. It seems that the Company was confused about the change in the manufacturer of the sensor, but they decided to adopt it based on the performance data of the manufacturer and the Company. As a result, we were able to achieve product specifications that exceeded the sensing accuracy and speed initially targeted by the customer.
4. Manufacturing including housing and mechanism
Request:
We want to commercialize not only electronics, but also a total product that includes housings and mechanisms.
Suggestions:
The industry is completely unrelated to electronics, and although I have a vague image of it, I was at a loss as to how to make it a reality, so I consulted with you. Based on our intention to differentiate ourselves from other companies, especially in terms of electronics, the Company proposed a specific plan that included the chassis.
Consultant's voice:
We asked about the customer's image and business plan, and helped them from the creation of specifications. In addition, in selecting a partner, the Company were able to make the best choice for the customer by advising them from the customer's point of view. As a result, although it was the first time, we were able to proceed with manufacturing smoothly.
Problem-solving capabilities of manufacturing consulting
Problems are inevitable in new product development. There is no 100% chance that it will work the first time according to the specifications, and it will always hit a wall. That's when the Company strength is demonstrated.
Selection of optimal semiconductor devices
The selection of the optimum semiconductor device is essential when proceeding with manufacturing according to the customer's specifications. In this case, it was necessary to create a waterproof housing, and the structure did not allow holes or gaps in the housing. However, with the sensing method that the customer had originally envisioned, it was not possible to create a waterproof enclosure, so the Company proposed a device that can perform sensing even from inside a sealed enclosure.
In addition, there was also a need for a wireless system to match the miniaturization and a mass production system for the product. We proposed the selection of the optimal wireless module, miniaturization of the board, and quality and production system for commercial use in cooperation with EMS destinations.
tenacious response
In order to meet the needs of customers who want to measure highly accurate data that cannot be measured with conventional in-house products, we will improve data accuracy by selecting the most suitable sensor after examining the measurement method and conducting implementation verification. did.
However, there was a problem that the measured data could not be communicated. When investigating the cause, it was found that the power consumption was 10 times more than expected, and the battery was decreasing at a rate of 10 times or more. When investigating the problem, a design error was found in the electronic circuit.
In order to deal with this problem, the technical team led a review of the power supply circuit. Data acquisition is also performed at the minimum frequency necessary, and battery life is improved by suppressing power consumption. Furthermore, we were able to improve by taking additional measures such as introducing a sleep mode.
