Business Details
The domestic business segment operated by CONVUM, Ltd. itself. It manufactures and sells vacuum equipment-related products such as Vacuum Generators (CONVUM), Vacuum Suction Pads, and Pressure Sensors. Major customers are Nichiden Co., Ltd. and Daido Co., Ltd., both industrial machinery trading companies. Primary demand comes from automation and labor-saving needs in the manufacturing industry, with a focus on robot hand-related products and products for semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Development functions for all products are consolidated within this segment.
Recent Overview
Increased sales and profit driven by signs of recovery in semiconductor manufacturing equipment demand and strong inquiries for robot hand-related products.
In Q1 FY2026 (ending December 2026) (January to March 2026), sales in the Japan segment were ¥448 million (110.2% year-on-year), and operating profit was ¥105 million (117.1% year-on-year). Orders for vacuum equipment and suction pads for semiconductor manufacturing equipment and maintenance increased. Amid the trend toward labor-saving and automation of production equipment, inquiries for robot hand-related products were strong, and sales activities focused on launching new products and acquiring new customers.
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Increased inquiries for robot hand-related products driven by expanding demand for labor-saving and automation of production equipment
- Expansion of the sales base through new product launches and new customer acquisition
- Recovery trend in demand related to semiconductor manufacturing equipment (order increase confirmed in Q1 2026)
- Medium- to long-term expansion of the industrial and collaborative robot market (rising capital investment appetite driven by labor shortages)
- Addressing future demand through the development of new material and new shape suction pads and the promotion of electrification
Risks
- Upward pressure on manufacturing costs due to continued increases in raw material and component prices
- Uncertainty over the timing of a full-fledged recovery in demand for semiconductor manufacturing equipment and maintenance
- Concentration of sales in Nichiden Co., Ltd. and Daido Co., Ltd. (top two customers account for approximately 39% of consolidated sales)
- Impact of exchange rate fluctuations and rising resource and energy prices on corporate activities
- Risk of crude oil and energy price fluctuations amid geopolitical tensions in the Middle East
