On August 22nd, the Shiga Open Factory, sponsored by Shiga Prefecture, was held, and our company was attended by a total of 18 people, including 11 students from elementary school to high school, and 7 parents.

After an overview of the company, the participants were given a tour of the factory and were able to experience the product inspection process using a magnifying glass. NHK Otsu Broadcasting Station was also there to cover the event, and the event was broadcast on their program "Oumi 630."
From the participating children:
"I was surprised at how big the press was."
"The robot's movements were fascinating."
"Measuring the product was fun"
By seeing the actual production site, the participants were able to feel the excitement and fun of manufacturing.

I am very pleased that this experience provided an opportunity to convey the appeal of manufacturing to children who will be the leaders of the next generation.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone at the Shiga Prefectural Government who worked hard to organize this event, and to everyone who participated.
