Sato Corporation Announces New Collaboration with Konica Minolta, Inc SATO Corporation announced a new collaboration with Konica Minolta, Inc., as it will now build its flagship CL4NX Plus and CL6NX Plus printers using recycled plastics that Konica Minolta has developed for its multifunctional printers. SATO’s industrial printers made from recycled materials will soon be available on the market. Product development at SATO adheres to eight principles it defines as SATO universal printer design, which expresses its commitment to creating printers that offer equitable use, reliable operation and lasting quality. Its products support multiple languages and function regardless of the workplace environment and available infrastructure. SATO’s collaboration with Konica Minolta is a new step toward environmental stewardship, which is integral to SATO universal printer design. SATO currently offers linerless labels as part of its efforts to use resources sustainably and reduce carbon emissions, but it now takes this commitment further by incorporating recycled plastics into select printer models starting Fiscal Year 2024. Konica Minolta’s recycled plastics meet SATO’s stringent quality standards for flame retardancy, flexural strength, density and mold shrinkage rate. The recycled plastics are used in 40% of the housing components of CL4NX Plus and CL6NX Plus, and SATO expects to reduce carbon emissions by 65% in parts where recycled plastic is used, compared to conventional parts without compromising the quality that virgin materials provide. Using recycled plastics in its flagship printers sold worldwide not only supports SATO’s global sustainability efforts but also allows its customers to contribute to reducing carbon emissions. The material developed by Konica Minolta is a recycled ABS plastic, a flame-retardant, durable and easy-to-mold synthetic resin. Used in Konica Minolta’s multifunctional printers, these plastics are collected from used game machines that are separated, dismantled, crushed and washed. The processed material is then melted and compounded into plastic pellets for horizontal recycling. In line with corporate mission, SATO will seek ever more sustainable manufacturing practices by incorporating recycled materials in products. Annonce • Sep 20

(Change) announced that the companies have jointly developed artificial intelligence (AI) for helping to solve problems and standardize the operations of local governments, and started providing the AI in January 2021. Key Points: Eliminating the time required for surveys and studies on preceding cases related to business process re-engineering by using AI; Presenting proposals to improve operations through the input of simple information by combining Konica Minolta's expertise in standardizing the operations of local governments and Change's know-how in developing AI; Helping local governments to improve services for citizens and promoting workstyle reforms. As the workload of local governments has rapidly increased due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it is imperative to reform workstyles through digital transformation (DX) of operations. While the national government will take the initiative to standardize the operations and systems of local governments, it is necessary to promptly improve operations and promote the use of digital solutions based on preceding cases from the viewpoint of overall optimization instead of respective local governments. Against this backdrop, AI for helping local governments standardize their operations was developed using Konica Minolta's track record in its consulting services based on know-how and data derived from visualizing and improving operations in cooperation with 50 local governments and Change's track record in AI development. The AI gives local government officials suggestions for improving the efficiency of their operations by inputting simple information.
