A product that is praised as Japan Quality is that each of the precision parts that make it up is of high quality. Even one non-conforming part should not be mixed into the parts delivered to the customer.
Since more than six years ago, we have focused on the importance of 100% inspection and developed and completed a Zero ppm inspection system that does not produce one non-conformity product per million. We interviewed Chairman Hara and President Oishi of NANO SEIMITSU CO., LTD.

The age has come that “Zero Defects” is normal. What is the need for a total number inspection machine!?
Most of the inspection machines handled by NANO SEIMITSU are made in China and Taiwan. Why is there no Japan made machine? Shouldn't Japanese-made be superior to Taiwanese or Chinese-made machines? President Oishi says that customers have often asked such questions. There was a reason for that. In Japan, there has always been an idea that quality control is completed by own-process management. He had absolute confidence in the manufacturing process that would not produce non-conformity parts.
On the other hand, it was Taiwan and China that had no domestic demand and exported the parts they made to Europe and the United States. The mixing of non-conformance parts in these shipments could lead to company bankruptcy. This must not be. It is very natural that inspection equipment has evolved compared to Japan, and it became more sophisticated.
▲ Standard machine with three sets of size measurement systems from the top, bottom and side, four 360 ° appearance inspection systems, a total of seven CCD cameras.
The combination of a screening machine with excellent dimensional inspection, structure inspection, and visual inspection enables Zero ppm!
It is not easy to inspect one million total pieces manually. Naturally, finding non-conformity items is nearly impossible. Even now, although the quality of manufacturing has improved dramatically, one or two non-conformities will be produced per one million. It is said that the reason is not a total number inspection but corresponding to the sampling inspection.
However, NANO SEIMITSU has been working on the total number of inspections for more than six years. Customers' requirements scatter widely including "We want to inspect the dimensions," "We want to examine the structure such as hardness," and "We want to automatically sort by appearance." NANO SEIMITSU responds to these demands with an extensive product line-up.
▲ UAZNC, VIZION's standard automatic sorter, owns a total of seven units
Product lineup of NANO SEIMITSU
■UAZNC Available size sorting at high-speed.
Using seven CCD cameras, it is possible to sort, mix, detect deformed parts, and sort out damages on the appearance of 300 or more pieces per minute. The standard model is offered at an affordable price.
Inspect for non-conformity or not, parts that are not known from appearance. Prevent problems such as customer claims a recall after delivery to customers. ■ DECSYS Appearance semi-automatic inspection machine
A device that automatically inspects fine abrasions and dents. Unlike the human eye, it makes a judgment on a certain standard. Capture scan data from up to eight lines of different light conditions to detect defects such as scratches, dents, and dirt at a minimum 0.2 mm square level.
A company that works with automated machine manufacturers to propose a dedicated machine that can fulfill all the needs of its customers. The big attraction is the proposal power and the price competitiveness in which their know-how is packed.
■ LINE QC SPECIALIST Manufacturing Management System
A newly developed system to prevent issuing non-conformity parts in the manufacturing process! The software monitors the rules set by the manufacturing department and gives appropriate instructions to QC staff on the line handling the measuring instruments.
Customers are demanding a system to guarantees products fully free from non-conformity. However, there are few companies in Thailand and Japan that can meet this requirement. The automatic sorting and inspection system that NANO SEIMITSU proposes is to realize Zero ppm and brings higher grade quality improvement to the manufacturing industry.
