[Case Study] Utilizing Sensors for Material Inspection! Val Corporation

Utilizing sensors for material inspection of a wide range of products to achieve shorter delivery times and cost reduction!

We would like to introduce a case where Ricoh's resin identification handheld sensor B150 was implemented at Bal Corporation, which supplies its own developed daily necessities and lifestyle goods to major 100 yen shops. The company began to be asked by its clients for evidence of material specifications, and the time and cost required for external inspections became a significant burden. By introducing this sensor, the company was able to accurately identify materials in-house, significantly reducing the costs and lead times associated with external inspections. 【Previous Challenges】 - The company needed to strengthen its internal checking system as clients began to request evidence of material specifications. - Particularly for repeat production items that required enhanced checks, the time and cost of sending items to external inspection agencies became a significant burden. - During the product development stage, it was necessary to use external inspection agencies to check the materials of sample products, which delayed the completion process. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*

basic information

【Introduction Effects】 ■ It can be easily used at the desk, and there is no need to interpret the measurement results, allowing for a straightforward enhancement of the company's quality control system. ■ Since material inspections can now be easily conducted in-house, the costs and lead times for external inspections have been significantly reduced. ■ Being able to identify the materials of sample products in-house allows for immediate changes in case of errors, leading to a significant reduction in lead times even during the product development stage. * For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
