SMART
FACTORY
We are promoting automation to consistently deliver higher quality products
At Toyo Chemical, our primary mission is to consistently deliver “high-quality” products to our customers. Operating equipment based on human intuition and techniques can lead to quality variations. Therefore, Toyo Chemical is promoting machine automation—Smart Factory.
Toyo Chemical:
Committed to
Smart Factory Since 1994
To achieve consistent quality and supply volume, Toyo Chemical has introduced high-performance extrusion machine from Austria. Taking advantage of our factory relocation, we have implemented various automation measures such as remote management within the factory, and we continue to work daily toward realizing a smart factory.
Benefits of Smart Factory Implementation for
Customers and Society
Quality Improvement and Stabilization01
When quality confirmation relies on human judgement, variations arise due to individual sensory differences, resulting in inconsistent quality. To prevent this, we set numerical passing standards in machines and perform automated quality checks to maintain consistent quality.
Quality of raw materials is numerically
managed
in the monitoring room
Productivity Enhancement02
By introducing equipment that allows precise numerical tracking of production volumes and automating certain processes for 24-hour operation, we have achieved a monthly supply volume of 3,000 tons. This enables us to meet various customer needs, including large-volume orders.
Production volumes for each line are
constantly monitored on factory displays
CO2 Emission Reduction03
By visualizing power consumption and remotely controlling production line operations, we aim to create an environmentally friendly factory by reducing unnecessary electricity use. We are contributing to environmental improvement not only through our products (recycled plastic raw materials) but also by ensuring our work environment and equipment are designed with CO2 reduction in mind.
Power consumption is constantly monitored
by in-plant monitors
