Kao Builds New Production System Using Floating Linear Technology

 In collaboration with B&R and Kyoto Seisakusho, Kao is utilizing floating linear technology to develop decorative molding technology that can design products according to customer needs, and dynamic cell technology that enables efficient low-volume, high-mix production. Developed production technology. A new production system that has never existed before will be built and is scheduled to start operation in 2023.

Floating linear technology is a linear transport system that allows objects with built-in permanent magnets to float and move freely by programming to control the repulsive force or attractive force of magnetic force. High-speed, high-precision, complex transfer can be realized, and both flexibility and productivity can be achieved.

The system constructed this time is a decorative molding technology that utilizes the 6-dimensional movement of the floating linear that moves, rotates, and tilts parts freely and with high precision. As a result, it will be possible to provide unprecedentedly valuable products and services that meet the needs of each customer, including cosmetics, and pave the way for accelerating the shift to personalized marketing.
In addition, the highly flexible transfer technology of the floating linear enables flexible and rapid product switching. It is possible to realize complex simultaneous high-mix production by dynamically changing the

In the future, it is expected that the function will be greatly expanded by promoting smartization, such as introducing AI and digitally connecting and linking pre- and post-processes. We aim to realize a sustainable supply chain by realizing flexible and efficient production by actively utilizing cutting-edge technology and promoting DX.
