We are pleased to announce the birth of the autonomous cleaning robot "Ichibou Dajin," equipped with AMR technology. It automatically creates the optimal cleaning route and performs cleaning according to the customer's preferred cleaning pattern. - It helps solve problems such as the need for manual cleaning after daily operations, which takes time and effort. - It also addresses the desire to complete cleaning during nighttime when no one is around. 【The Vision Behind 'Ichibou Dajin'】 The name embodies the idea of collecting various types of debris scattered throughout the construction and building industry all at once. We believe that the ability to collect even sand as fine as silica sand is essential. Additionally, it represents the cleaning capability of our product, which allows for efficient cleaning all at once.

This time, we would like to introduce a case study of the AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) currently in operation at the Sakai Factory of Toa Gosei Co., Ltd., a major chemical manufacturer. ■AGV Specifications - Model: V1000-J - Load capacity: 1000kg - Operating environment: Outdoor except for work pickup and drop-off - Guidance method: Magnetic induction - Options: Heat-resistant coating, rust prevention treatment This AGV is manufactured by KKS and is designed for outdoor operation, which is a feature of our group's AGVs, primarily transporting along outdoor routes. It operates smoothly even on factory water slopes, steps, inclines, uneven surfaces, and wavy corridors. Additionally, unloading and coordination with conveyor systems are all performed automatically, contributing to the efficiency of the site. We have uploaded a video of the AGV operating within the factory on our YouTube channel, so please take a look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4xRbBq9fyw (TKS Tokyo Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. - YouTube Channel) *You can access it through the related link.

The "V2000," capable of carrying 2 tons, has been born following the V1000 (1-ton capacity), which is the flagship product of the TKS Group's AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle). ■ Product Features - Carrying weight: 2 tons - Can operate outdoors even on rainy days - Can traverse a 15mm right-angle step - Can operate on a 3.4-degree incline - Can navigate grooves and grates - Can automatically coordinate with elevators and shutter doors - Equipped with lithium-ion batteries As for the development background, we received numerous requests from customers at the "International Logistics Comprehensive Exhibition 2022," which we participated in two years ago, expressing the need for an AGV that can handle heavier workloads. This prompted us to advance the development. Like the 1-ton capacity V1000, the V2000 is an all-weather AGV that excels in rough terrain, making it undoubtedly capable of serving as a means of transport between buildings or as a substitute for forklifts. We can accommodate demonstrations at your desired location, so please feel free to contact us if you have any requests.

Recently, we delivered five units of the customized standard AGV "V1900-H" to Panasonic Energy Co., Ltd. at their Wakayama factory. The "V1900-H" is expected to contribute to the productivity improvement of the new large-capacity battery manufacturing line, which is anticipated to be installed in electric vehicles (EVs), through collaboration with other logistics manufacturers, while also enhancing safety and reducing the need for human labor. In today's labor market, the shortage of workers has become a serious management issue, particularly in manufacturing and logistics, where the demand for labor-saving solutions in transportation tasks is increasing. By transforming transportation tasks traditionally performed by humans into fully automated operations using AGVs (automated guided vehicles), we not only achieve automation and efficiency but also contribute to improving the productivity of on-site workers. At KKS Co., Ltd., our slogan is "Realizing a future where people and machines coexist more closely." We are committed to developing systems that bring machines closer to people and create an environment that is easy for our customers to implement. *For more details, please refer to the attached materials or feel free to contact us.*

We have started the development of the "V2000 2t" since April 2023. It is a further power upgrade from the "V1000 1t" and will become the flagship model of our AGVs. It can operate outdoors, in the rain, and on rough terrain.

Our company provides a comprehensive response for AGV operation management systems and robot system integration. Using the technical expertise developed through our newspaper delivery system, we propose customized automation that meets our customers' needs. In addition, we assist in automating numerous processes through collaboration with surrounding equipment, helping with the automation of simple tasks and transport operations. Please feel free to contact us if you have any requests.

The "V1000-H" is an automatic transport device that offers suitable methods by utilizing both the cost-effective magnetic induction method tailored to needs and the laser induction method that does not require induction tape, taking advantage of the benefits of both. It has rainproof performance, allowing it to be implemented even in harsh outdoor environments. Additionally, it can run smoothly on grating surfaces without any issues. *For more details, please be sure to watch the video.* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8aigmpehmg&feature=youtu.be
