Takaya Corporation will exhibit at the "2nd [Kansai] Nepcon Japan Electronics Assembly and Development Exhibition" to be held at Intex Osaka from May 13 (Wednesday) to May 15 (Friday), 2026. This exhibition is an event where cutting-edge technologies from a wide range of electronics fields, including electronic circuits, assembly technologies, and inspection equipment, come together, showcasing numerous information and technologies that directly address challenges in development and manufacturing. At our booth, we plan to display the new standard model of the flying probe tester, APT-T400J (making its debut in Kansai), as well as the high-end model APT-2600FD. This time, we will be jointly exhibiting with the Industrial Equipment Division and the EMS Division, allowing us to directly present voices from actual sites where the equipment has been implemented and is operational. You can also consult with us on any concerns or questions you may have regarding the introduction, benefits, and other issues you may feel on a daily basis. We look forward to welcoming you to our booth.

In manufacturing and logistics, the issues of "labor reduction" and "operational efficiency" due to labor shortages are urgent challenges. While RFID is a highly effective means for promoting digital transformation in process management, traditional systems have relied on integration with control PCs and specialized software development, which has posed significant barriers to implementation. We have developed a "touch panel terminal for data collection" that simultaneously addresses these "implementation hurdles" and "on-site concerns." This terminal does not require control software and can be operated immediately by simply powering it on and setting it up. If there is an internet connection, the collected performance data can be sent directly to the cloud, enabling "anyone, easily, and accurately" to manage performance without specialized knowledge. Furthermore, by visualizing the number of readings in real-time on the touch panel, we can prevent human errors on the spot and resolve issues such as complicated data entry, manual recording, and delays in data utilization. The collected data can be immediately used to identify bottlenecks in processes and improve the accuracy of cost and production cost management, strongly supporting productivity enhancement and digital transformation on-site. With "easy installation and easy operation," test operations during implementation can also be conducted swiftly.

Thank you very much for your continued support. We would like to inform you that our company is planning to have a Golden Week holiday as per the schedule below. Consequently, we regret to inform you that we will suspend product shipments during the following period. We appreciate your understanding in this matter. ■ Shipment Suspension Period: May 2, 2026 (Saturday) – May 6, 2026 (Wednesday) Normal shipments will resume on May 7, 2026 (Thursday).
