ORIX Rentec’s “Lab” – Supporting the Adoption of New Technologies

[Publisher] ORIX Group | Reproduced from the shareholder notice “Alive,” No.59

With the arrival of robots, 3D printers and drones, the possibilities for businesses and our lives as whole are continuing to expand. However, the reality of the situation is that not everyone can immediately make full use of the latest equipment, and many companies are hesitant to introduce it. ORIX Rentec Corporation helps companies like these through rentals and a variety of services to support the spread of new technologies.

The home of robots: “Tokyo Robot Lab”

“RoboRen” offers robot rentals and technical support by dedicated engineers to help enable the full-scale introduction of robots by providing an opportunity for companies to rent them and try them out. This enables customers worried about whether the robots will operate well on their production lines or are not sure which model is most appropriate to test them before committing. A variety of the robots handled by RoboRen are on display at “Tokyo Robot Lab” in Machida, Tokyo. Customers who are considering the introduction of robots can see how they behave and experience how they operate as well as consult with us on how best to proceed with their introduction.

While 3D printers can help ideas take shape in a short time, their introduction requires financial investment and substantial expertise to operate them. ORIX Rentec supports customers through rentals and technology support, as well as a service to create models upon customer request, offering the opportunity to utilize 3D printers in a wide range of companies. The home of this contract-based modeling service is “Tokyo 3D Lab”.

Goki Kobayashi, Department Head, New Business Development Department, ORIX Rentec Corporation

We have been supporting the development of industry behind-the-scenes in a variety of fields, primarily in the manufacturing industry, through the rental of electronic measuring instruments and ICT equipment. The technology and products for robots, 3D printers and drones has existed for a long time. However, product development has progressed over the past few years due to new perspectives, and various ways in which they can be used has attracted significant attention. Our purpose is to make it easy to introduce this equipment to market and continue to contribute to the adoption of technology at our customers.
