Automation Equipment that has become surplus stock in Japan
We export automation equipment that has become surplus inventory in the Japanese market
We purchase automation equipment that has become surplus inventory from the Japanese end users and distributors and export them. These products include equipment that became unnecessary due to changes in the design of manufacturing facilities or business restructuring, as well as equipment that has become outdated models due to the release of new models by the automation equipment manufacturer.
These products are completely functional, so they will definitely bring great economic benefits to your business.
The background of the reason why Japanese companies have excess inventory
After COVID-19, the semiconductor market has experienced significant disruptions in supply and demand. The automation equipment industry has also been affected, and in recent years the inventory situation of various companies has been severely disrupted. Major companies had held back a considerable amount of inventory for fear of a shortage of components, but as they saw the market stabilizing in the past year or two, they released their inventory. Our business is to buy the inventory and resell it.
The manufacturer of the automation equipment we handle
Mitsubishi Electric
Mitsubishi Electric is the automation equipment manufacturer that is used most widely in Japan and also other market. Its product lineup includes PLCs, inverters, touch panels, servo motors, and more, and it covers a wide range of applications, from small and medium-sized factories to large-scale factories. It is a particularly popular manufacturer among the manufacturers we handle.
Yaskawa Electric
Yaskawa Electric's products are used in relatively large-scale factories. They are particularly strong in the areas of servo motors and servo packs, and as you would expect, there is a tendency for automation equipment to be used together with their industrial robots at the sites where they are used. As for automation equipment of Yaskawa Electric, we procure large quantities of inventory from large-scale factories at once.
Fuji Electric
In Japan, Fuji Electric's inverters are particularly popular. From small capacity inverters to large capacity inverters, Fuji Electric's inverters are also popular in overseas markets, regardless of the application. As a company, Fuji Electric has a significant influence in the semiconductor and infrastructure fields, and we believe that it will continue to have a stable share in the future.
Omron
As for Omron, they handle more sensors and PLCs, and there is a trend towards the use of automation equipment in the medical field, which is their specialty. In particular, in the sensor field, they have achieved the highest level of product penetration in Japan, and they boast a high presence in the precision field.
Keyence
Because Keyence's business model is based on direct sales, we don't have many opportunities to handle large quantities of their products. Keyence's sensors and image measuring instruments in particular are extremely popular in Japan, so the reality is that we have almost no stock that we can export to overseas markets.
Why are they so cheap? Are they used products?
No, they aren't used products. Since we procure surplus invetory (dead stocks) from the Japanese distributors and factories, we can offer low price even if they are in new condition. By doing business with us, you can maintain quality while also reaping significant economic benefits.
