Early establishment of a third pillar following pressure gauges and pressure sensors
First written in FY2020. 4 of 6 entries say "Advanced", first in FY2022. Latest entry: FY2026.
The whole theme swung hardest in 2021: 1 of 7 companies on the "Worse" side.
6 other companies' latest entry also says "Advanced".
- FY2026Expansion of optical sensors and extreme-environment measurement into product offeringsAnnual report
「For the hydrogen-related business, whose practical application as a next-generation energy source is advancing toward achieving carbon neutrality, the company is developing a pressure sensor for measuring liquid hydrogen at -253°C, scheduled for release in fiscal 2026.」
Toward the third core business, the deployment of optical sensors progressed through sales of sensors for molten resin, the planned fiscal 2026 release of sensors for liquid hydrogen, and expansion into the resources, aerospace and fusion fields. - 2026-05-13ReframedManagement planning
「持続的な成長に向けた最重要課題は「新領域への挑戦」です。圧力計測を中核とする競争力を磨きつつ、政府の戦略分野を含む成長領域で新たな需要を確実に取り込み、再成長の実現（リトライ）に取り組みます。」
圧力計・圧力センサに続く第3の柱という表現から、「新領域への挑戦」を最重要課題とする再成長方針へ整理し直した。 - FY2024Progress toward providing evaluation samples of sensors for liquid hydrogenAnnual report
「Following progress including verification at a JAXA test facility, the company began providing development evaluation samples to leading companies developing equipment such as liquid-hydrogen transfer pumps.」
Regarding extreme-environment measurement toward the third core business, the pressure sensor for liquid hydrogen at −235°C progressed from the verification stage to the provision of development evaluation samples to leading companies. - FY2023AdvancedAnnual report
「As part of the expansion into new business areas, the company advanced development toward the commercialization of measurement systems capable of operating in extreme environments ranging from cryogenic temperatures, ultra-high temperatures and ultra-high pressures to extremely low pressures. For the hydrogen-related business, which is expected to grow toward achieving carbon neutrality, it also advanced development of a pressure sensor using optical interference technology to measure liquid hydrogen at −235°C.」
Toward the third core business, the company advanced commercialization-oriented development of pressure sensors for measuring liquid hydrogen, the integration of torque sensors and measurement and control equipment into systems, and bridge and ship-hull monitoring systems. - FY2022Commercialization and launch achieved toward the third core businessAnnual report
「As part of the expansion into new business areas, which is intended to become a third core business following pressure gauges and pressure sensors, the company has pursued the development of measurement systems enabling measurement in extreme environments and the commercialization of monitoring systems aimed at providing high-value-added systems and services.」
Toward the third core business, the company advanced the commercialization and launch of optical molten-resin pressure sensors, the enhancement of optical and torque sensors and measurement and control equipment, and the commercialization of monitoring systems. - FY2020First statedAnnual report
「We will establish a third core business following pressure gauges and pressure sensors at an early stage.」
The company first explicitly stated, as a growth strategy in its medium-term management plan, the goal of promptly establishing a new earnings pillar following its existing pressure gauges and pressure sensors businesses.
