Taking on New Domains and New Business Models

「The Company is also advancing the development of technologies and products in new mechatronics application areas, including physical AI, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, and food and agriculture, where it expects future market expansion.」

「We aim to establish a competitive advantage in the physical AI market by developing the market for physical AI, expanding the scope of automation, and strengthening our lineup of core components centered on robot solutions.」

「We accelerated collaboration with partners in various fields through the i³-Mechatronics CLUB.」

「We began selling the new autonomous “MOTOMAN NEXT series” robots, aimed at developing areas that have not yet been automated, and the “YRM1010” YRM controller, which enables integrated control of production-floor cells and realizes i3-Mechatronics.」

「Profit increased, driven by efforts to pass on higher material costs and the effects of high-value-added proposals using i3-Mechatronics solutions.」

「Under “Realize 25,” we aim to achieve the “2025 Vision” by creating new value through the development of i³-Mechatronics and the evolution of robotics, thereby increasing revenue and productivity.」

「In Food & Agri, we will advance automation centered on the use of robots in the prepared-food and agricultural sectors, complete the demonstration phase for the automated vegetable production system and pursue full-scale business expansion. In the Humatronics equipment business, we will strengthen initiatives to expand the use of biomedical robots in PCR testing processes and commercialize the business in the field of genome analysis.」

「To achieve sustainable business growth, we are pursuing the selection and concentration of resources in new businesses. In the Energy Saving business, we will expand sales through the launch of new products and the development of new functions. In the Food & Agri business, we will steadily advance automation through the introduction of robots in the prepared-food sector, complete the demonstration phase for the automated vegetable production system and pursue full-scale business expansion. In the Clean Power business, we will seek to return to profitability through thorough cost reductions, including the reorganization of offices and other facilities, to optimize the global business structure. In the Humatronics equipment business, we will strengthen initiatives aimed at commercializing genome analysis using biomedical robots.」

「③ Expanding new fields by strengthening resources through “selection and concentration”」

「Under Challenge 25, we will further improve the high-profitability business structure achieved under the previous medium-term management plan, Dash 25, while accelerating efforts to pursue new fields and new business models toward realizing the 2025 Vision.」

「As one measure toward realizing our solution concept, i³-Mechatronics (i-Cube Mechatronics), we decided to make the company a subsidiary.」

「Going forward, centered on the i³-Mechatronics concept, we will develop competitive products and solutions and contribute to creating new value for customers.」

「In addition to expanding orders in the core businesses through the development and launch of new products, we are advancing research and development activities aimed at supporting next-generation manufacturing under our new concept, i3-Mechatronics (i-Cube Mechatronics), for realizing a new industrial automation revolution.」

「We are pursuing new fields and new business models, including the automation of food production.」

「In these 3 business areas, we will also accelerate research and development activities aimed at future business expansion by actively leveraging open innovation.」

「In addition to developing and launching new products to expand orders in the core businesses, we advanced efforts to turn areas related to marine propulsion and EVs (electric vehicles), among others, into core businesses in the environment and energy fields.」

「The Group has sought to expand its businesses by developing new business areas, including the environment and energy fields, and actively launching new products to improve competitiveness and profitability.」

「We are advancing research and development to achieve rapid product development through the glocal development structure established under the previous medium-term management plan, Realize 100, and to turn new businesses and new fields into core businesses.」

「We are advancing research and development to achieve rapid product development through the glocal development structure established under the previous medium-term management plan, Realize 100, and to turn new businesses and new fields into core businesses.」

「We will actively develop new initiatives to realize the growth strategy set out in the 2025 Vision, while pursuing new fields and new business models.」
