Join Hands with Morimatsu to Achieve Value

The "Breakthrough Path" for the Development of Value Co-creation Industry

Morimatsu has been in the Chinese market since 1990 and has become a diversified multinational company with rich project experience in core equipment, process systems, and digital integrated factory solutions. It provides comprehensive solutions for industries such as pharmaceuticals, daily chemicals, power battery raw materials, semiconductors, and wet electronic chemicals. With the stricter standards in the research and development, production, circulation, and use of the life sciences industry, pharmaceutical companies have higher requirements for their production equipment, leading to an urgent need for equipment companies to have mature and rich solutions from their automation manufacturer partners, as well as the ability to plan, implement, and optimize projects. Mr. Jiang Pei, Senior Vice President of Morimatsu Life Technology, said, "When Morimatsu develops a new solution or core equipment, we will work together with excellent partners in the industry to explore, so that Morimatsu’s products and solutions can not only stand at the forefront of the industry, but also lead industry trends. These are inseparable from the close cooperation of excellent partners in the industry, and Festo is one of our important partners.

Excellent automation partners not only need mature and rich solutions that can meet customers' needs in various dimensions such as facilities, research and development, and sustainability, but also are important guarantees to help enterprises achieve cost reduction, efficiency increase, and transformation and upgrading. Festo has a complete product line and a high degree of customization, which can meet the equipment production requirements in the field of life sciences. With Festo's help, Morimatsu not only solved the control problems of valves in the explosion-proof production field, but also achieved continuous technological breakthroughs. In addition, Festo has a globally unified quality standard and insists on innovating and growing together with customers, making us very trustworthy, "said Mr. Jiang.

Festo, with a century of accumulated service-oriented experience, advanced technological advantages, and innovative integration of professional solutions, helps customers transform towards standardization and digital intelligence. In the future, Festo will continue to deepen the layout of the life sciences industry, empower pharmaceutical companies with multi-dimensional automation solutions to promote digital growth, and contribute more new value to the life sciences field with a new ecological model. Regarding this, Lu Yanyan, Vice President of Market Management, Festo BRGCN, stated, “Over the past 20 years of cooperation with Morimatsu, we have been honored to accompany and witness the rapid development of Morimatsu in the Chinese market. With the increasing demand for customization in segmented industries, Morimatsu and Festo will continue to conduct in-depth discussions and cooperation in technological innovation and digital upgrading. In the future, Festo will continue to be customer-oriented and committed to helping customers in various industries improve production efficiency and achieve intelligent manufacturing.”

The cooperation between Morimatsu and Festo is a strong alliance, setting a model for high-end manufacturing in the life technology industry. Festo's customized solutions help Morimatsu save a lot of labor costs, optimize the volume of module structures, and improve product safety performance. At the same time, as a high-end manufacturing enterprise in the international field, Morimatsu has also played a strengthening role in Festo's business expansion in the biopharmaceutical and chemical fields. In some high-end pharmaceutical terminals, it has received high praise and helped Festo create a pioneer in business expansion in the biopharmaceutical upstream and downstream, liquid preparation, fermentation, and chemical fields.

Cost Reduction And Efficiency Enhancement Automation Is An Important Means

In the production equipment of chemical raw materials, Morimatsu encountered the problem of explosion-proof areas, and the production and synthesis process of chemical raw materials was flammable and explosive. There are many valve switches on site that require a large number of solenoid valves to be implemented, but due to the presence of flammable and explosive gases such as ethanol and ether, explosion-proof products need to be used. The traditional solution is to place the valve island in a distant non-explosion-proof area, requiring a large number of cables and bridge connections. In order to ensure safe operation in chemical raw material and drug production areas and avoid a large amount of manual wiring and other cumbersome work, Festo provides a valve terminal cabinet solution with overall 3C explosion-proof certification.

Festo's customized 3C explosion-proof valve island cabinet for Morimatsu has a compact design and a high degree of customization. One or more valve terminals can be designed based on the number of on-site valves. The bus communication control, components, and overall solution all have the national requirements of 3C explosion-proof certification, which is safe and reliable overall, avoiding a lot of wiring, bridge, and manual work, greatly optimizing the spatial layout and wiring labor costs. In addition, Festo's 3C explosion-proof valve island cabinet developed for Morimatsu is a collaborative project with a team. With the participation and support of sales teams, application engineer teams, research and development design teams, production teams, and technical support teams. In the early stage, we maintained close communication with customers and fully understood their needs. After the design of the plan was completed, the procurement and manufacturing team helped supervise the implementation of each link, conducted sufficient experiments, and ultimately completed all technical requirements of Morimatsu perfectly. “This product has a compact design and high degree of automation. It can set one or more valve islands based on the number of valves on site, and its entire information exchange is completed through a communication method. In addition, this product has obtained the national 3C explosion-proof certification, which can meet our Morimatsu application scenarios, "said Zhang Lijun, Assistant Minister of Morimatsu Life Technology.

Sustainable development has always been Festo's strategic goal, and helping customers achieve cost reduction and efficiency increase is Festo's mission. Lin Bin, Key Account Manager for the Biopharmaceutical Industry in Festo BRGCN, stated,“Cost reduction and efficiency enhancement have always been the long-term goal pursued by enterprises, and are also the key to their survival and development. Festo provides solutions that help Morimatsu achieve cost reduction and efficiency enhancement. In addition to the compact valve terminal structure, Festo also provides a technical support team to optimize the layout and debugging on site with customers, helping them save human resource costs and facilitate project acceptance Protect and escort. In addition, Festo will also help customers choose the most cost-effective solution in various aspects such as product design, selection, and installation, thereby further achieving cost reduction.”
