Production Technology

Kazunori Watanabe (Machining Technology) / Futtsu

Work responsibilities

I am in charge of machining custom pump parts. In addition to machining large impellers and high pressure pumps, we also manufacture wooden molds for casting. Since our machinery is large, the parts are also large. We are committed to preventing accidents and disasters, ensuring accurate process control technology (strict delivery, producing as much as possible), maintaining processing quality, processing skills and know-how, and maintaining machine tools.

Changes and evolutions from the past in the monozukuri (manufacturing) field

Now you can share and collaborate on process management files digitally with and you can plan on a small schedule with less burden on people in a short time. Also, regarding the sequence of processing processes, the data and rules for tacit knowledge that have been handed over on paper are digitized so that they can be automatically selected.

Future goals & message to young people

I think a productive production method can be a single package. The most important objective is to increase productivity, and to this end, we must prevent accidents and disasters and avoid machining defects by simulating high quality work and high precision production and realizing highly accurate schedule planning. I want to organize this PDCA into one package. It will require IT technology and human resources to use it.
