R&D and Production

Assembly Lines and Dies for Sale


3D CAD and various software are fully utilized to enable the virtual manufacture of dies and equipment. This allows a variety of evaluations prior to the actual manufacture of products. Especially in the case of equipment, checking whether any parts interfere with the equipment when the robot moves as well as verifying ease of operation for staff prior to start of actual manufacture can drastically reduce development time and costs. We take pride in this fully-turn-key solution.

Equipment Production


In the case of equipment we ourselves use, we have accumulated the know-how to manufacture/modify them so that they are user-friendly for us. This allows us to provide our clients' needs with a little extra something, thereby gaining credibility with them.

Dies

To meet clients' needs (extremely short production preparation time, global supply, cost reduction), FUTABA has learned the following issues to enable defect-free manufacture of quality dies.
Issues
  • Design of dies using simulation technology
  • Creation of data that allows unmanned processing
  • Fully-automated, high-speed and high-accuracy processing by standardization of processes and setups
  • No correction in finishing process
  • Digitizing evaluation/analysis results and feeding them back to designers
  • Optimum global procurement of materials and parts etc.
