Pneumatic Pressure Control System Business
Our main products in this business field are compressors, which generate compressed air to supply power to plants and its facilities Air compressors in plants are power sources that are as highly valued as motors, and 20 to 25% of the total energy in a plant is consumed by air compressors. Our highly efficient air compressors contribute greatly to energy conservation in plants. In addition, our air compressors are used as power sources for a wide variety of devices such as dental instruments, parking lot gate control systems, tracking cameras for athletic sports, amusement park attractions, automobile tire pumps, and painting devices and nail guns at construction sites.
Our air compressors have the top domestic share with excellent energy efficiency and reliability. Our “Bebikon”, in particular, boasts a domestic share of more than 50% among small-size air compressors.

Electricity Receiving and Distribution/Environment Systems Business
This business centers around transformers, which are essential for supplying power. Transformers are devices that lower the high voltage current distributed from a power generation plant. Without them, many electrical devices will not be able to function properly. Our transformers hold the top domestic market share with our advanced energy saving technology, as typified by our amorphous transformers. We respond to the various needs in the world through our products, such as oil-immersed transformers with high durability suited for outdoor installation, molded transformers which do not use insulating oil in order to achieve high disaster prevention properties, and ground transformers for electric power companies, which are suited for underground power distribution. Global expansion has also been progressing well. Hitachi Soe Electric & Machinery Co., Ltd., a joint venture founded in Myanmar in 2015, received a large order for 5,400 transformers from the government of Myanmar in November 2017.

Control Systems for Receiving and Transforming Power Business
This business provides systems for receiving and transforming power which are essential to the supply of electricity. Power receiving and transforming systems transform the high-voltage power transmitted from power plants into a voltage suited for the intended purpose of each facility, and supplies power to the various equipment. They also possess important functions that will protect surrounding people and equipment, such as protecting connected equipment by cutting off current when lightning strikes and preventing leakage of high-voltage currents with its high-performance insulation.
Our power receiving and transforming systems incorporate advanced technologies and various know-how to meet various needs, such as economic efficiency, space-saving, safety, operability and maintainability. In addition, our lineup includes control equipment, energy monitoring, control systems for hydroelectric, and thermal power plants, thereby contributing to the stable supply of electric power.
-
Labor Saving Systems Business
The main products are industrial ink-jet printers and hoists (hoisting machines), both of which have the top domestic market shares.
Our industrial ink-jet printers are used to print use-by dates on the bottom of plastic bottles and cans, and on the packages of foods and medicines. The printer forms the letters by emitting 100 thousand ink particles per second at a speed of 20 m/s, and is capable of high-speed printing by printing letters or numbers on the bottom of more than 30 cans per second. Our products have been exported to over 100 countries around the world.
Hoists are the chief components of cranes that are used mainly in plants to move heavy goods. We also have a lineup of products that further reduce energy consumption by utilizing the regenerative energy which is generated when winding up a hoisted load to the power line.

Product Development
Since we manufacture a large number of mass-produced products, we are required to see society’s needs from many different angles and balance them at a high level for commercialization. Our products are used in a wide range of areas from factories and cities to theme parks; it is attractive to have a real feeling of making a social contribution. In recent years, progress has been made in the introduction of IoT technology into products, and it is expected that new solutions will be offered.
-
Manufacturing Engineer
By conducting the design, operation and maintenance of production lines in our own factories as well as developing the production technologies that support the manufacture of advanced products, we are able to create safe and efficient mechanisms that will produce the actual products in line with the schematics created by our designers. In addition, discussions can be held with our designers from the perspective of ease of production, with the results reflected in the products.
-
Quality Assurance
Quality Assurance provides support over the entire product lifespan in terms of quality, from the creation of mechanisms that will produce high-quality products and the examination of completed products, through to the implementation of investigations into causes and response measures in the event of a defect occurring with a product that has entered the marketplace. In recent years, the scope of quality assurance has expanded to include production processes that aim to minimize environmental load and responses to harmful substances in products.
Mainly focusing on industrial motors, the products upon which Hitachi was founded, we have produced many top market share products by leveraging on the strengths of our technological capabilities and know-how accumulated over many years.
The industrial motors we create are the products upon which Hitachi was founded. Our other main products, such as air-compressors and transformers, have long histories, and based on the advantages gained through the technological skills and know-how accumulated over many years, we have produced numerous top market share products in the domestic market.
[Advantages in technological fields that utilize amorphous alloys]
Amorphous alloy is a non-crystalline solid created through rapid cooling from a molten state. It improves the energy saving performance of products with its low energy loss when a magnetic flux passes through an iron core. Our transformers achieve high energy saving performance by reducing the no-load loss, which is equivalent to standby power, to one-fifth that of existing products with the introduction of amorphous alloy. In addition, we also succeeded in developing amorphous motors that achieved IE5(※), the highest level of international efficiency standards for industrial motors, by using amorphous alloys for the iron core, which is the heart of the motor.
Hitachi Industrial Equipment Systems contributes to both the development of industrial and social infrastructure, and protection of the global environment by actively developing technologies for more efficient and energy-saving products in the future.
We actively expand our business overseas and encourage global education for young employees.
Through activities such as establishing local subsidiaries in locations such as China and Mexico in 2014, and Myanmar in 2015, we have been making global expansion as one of the pillars of our growth strategy. Our industrial ink-jet printers have been exported to over 100 countries around the world, and we will continue to actively promote sales overseas markets in other business fields as well.
We will continue to promote the global education of young employees with a long-term perspective in order to further accelerate globalization in the future.
[International Corporate Volunteering Program]
Participants will work in companies, NPOs and similar organizations in emerging countries for 6 weeks, where they take on the challenge of trying to resolve social issues together with local people by using the skills they have garnered in their normal jobs.
[Overseas business training system]
Participants experience overseas business through work at Hitachi's overseas offices for one year. From three years before the dispatch of the trainees, they will take a variety of advanced training programs designed to improve their language ability and to understand different cultures.
