AI will transform the way we work and expand our business into new fields

AI will optimize production lines in real time and even enable self-repair. Repairs and maintenance will be fully handled remotely using AR. With AI support, a selective workstyle environment will be realized, allowing each employee to focus only on their areas of expertise. The company will also expand its business into completely new fields beyond plastic films. — Sales Department, M.Y.

We will play soccer with humanoids during lunch break

Humanoid robots equipped with AI will be introduced on the manufacturing floor, each paired with a human as a buddy to carry out processing and assembly. During breaks, we will be able to enjoy playing soccer with the humanoids. While high performance in work is desirable, I believe their soccer skills should be adjusted to match those of humans. — Manufacturing Department, K.S.
