KURABO INDUSTRIES LTD.

Kurabo's electronics technology was developed in order to control colors by streamlining our dyeing plant into a high-tech facility. This streamlining was achieved by commercializing a computer color-matching (CCM) system that computerized the color matching of dyes and other items.

This technology was subsequently expanded to all of our businesses, eventually building up our major color-matching and dispensing businesses.

Two elemental technologies -software technology and color sensing technology- were developed through these efforts and then led to :

(a) imaging solution systems and production control systems in combination with CAD/CAM technology - information processing; and

To the production control system "information processing"

(b) high-speed, precision inspection and measurement systems that effectively utilize color images and invisible light (infrared and ultraviolet rays) - inspection and measurement.

To the high-speed, high-accuracy inspection measuring system "inspection and measurement"

These were further developed.

Kurabo will continue to offer solutions based on its industry-leading technologies.
