Nagase Industries Partners with High Reso to Propel DX in Manufacturing

Partnership for Digital Transformation in Manufacturing

Nagase Industries, based in Tokyo, has recently announced a strategic partnership with High Reso, a company that specializes in GPU cloud services. This collaboration focuses on integrating Nagase's proprietary mixing and stirring process analysis application, "Mixing Concierge™", with High Reso's cloud platform, "GPUSOROBAN Remote Workstation". The goal is to streamline operations in manufacturing sectors, particularly to enhance product development and manufacturing efficiency.

Addressing DX Challenges in Japanese Manufacturing

Japanese manufacturing faces significant challenges, primarily due to a reliance on specialized technologies and slow adoption of digital transformation (DX). The implementation of analysis software often requires a level of expertise that small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) struggle to maintain, resulting in poor integration of such technologies.

To combat this issue, Nagase Industries developed the Mixing Concierge™, designed specifically for fluid analysis in mixing and stirring processes. The application stands out because of its user-friendly interface that simplifies complex operations, allowing users to visualize and quantify their processes seamlessly. This is crucial for standardizing operations and improving quality across manufacturing environments.

However, SMEs face additional hurdles, especially concerning the setup of high-performance computing environments. This limitation has hindered widespread adoption of advanced analytical tools, including Mixing Concierge™.

A Seamless Solution Combining Applications and Cloud Technology

To overcome these barriers, Nagase and High Reso aimed to enhance accessibility to the Mixing Concierge™ by enabling its use in a cloud environment. Their collaboration centers around High Reso's GPUSOROBAN Remote Workstation, which allows users to leverage high-performance GPU resources remotely. Users can quickly access the application from home or the factory, turning their local PCs into powerful analytical tools without the need for extensive hardware setups.

By providing both the application and cloud infrastructure, Nagase and High Reso are eliminating the financial burdens associated with traditional hardware installations. This initiative means that a broader range of manufacturing environments can now implement high-quality analysis capabilities and push their digital transformation efforts forward.
