There is a gift shop called "Saladkan" in the head office building.
We have a wide selection of products that are useful for everyday life.
The filling station at the Fukui Gas Center, head office.
The reason for considering an update was the increasing number of breakdowns caused by the aging of filling machines made by other companies.
When a malfunction occurred, they would repair it in-house using the parts they had on hand, and if that didn't work, they would ask a maintenance company for help. However, there were times when the response was delayed and it caused problems for business, so they decided to upgrade.
When considering the product, they compared it with filling machines made by other companies, but chose our product because of its long-term reliability, extensive track record, and standardized system. In Fukui Prefecture, more than 70% of filling stations that have introduced electronic filling machines use UNIDACK filling machines, and they said that the track record of being the local choice gave them peace of mind.
Furthermore, because the previous filling management system was operated through repeated customization, when an error occurred, there was the inconvenience that "no one knew how to fix it." UNIDACK's filling management system is packaged, so anyone can operate it easily, and remote support is also available in the event of an error. This aspect matched Fukui Tsubame Shoji Co., Ltd.'s desire to "standardize."
Before update: Five semi-automatic stationary filling machines made by other companies, filling management system made by other companies
After the upgrade: 5 semi-automatic stationary LPG filling machines (S-ER-A), UNIDACK filling management system
Update date: November 2024

①Reduces maintenance burden and risk of breakdown
②Simplifying business flow
Before the upgrade, the filling machine made by another manufacturer used an automatic chain conveyor to transport cylinder during filling, but after the upgrade it has become a free roller machine.The customer said that the benefits of the simple structure are that it no longer requires maintenance and that the risk of breakdowns has been greatly reduced.
Furthermore, before the upgrade, if cylinder barcode became unreadable due to wear, a label with a different number prepared in advance had to be affixed and re-registered in the filling management system before filling. After the upgrade, a label printer linked to the system was introduced, which allowed labels with the same number to be printed instantly, allowing filling work to continue as is.
Furthermore, the sharing of filling data with other centers within the company has also been improved. Previously, data was sent and received via fax, following a complicated procedure, but now it is simply sent by email, reducing the processing steps by about five. This has led to increased speed and reduced workload.
This eliminates time-consuming processes and allows for a more efficient filling system to be established.
The height of the filling unit attached to cylinder filling port can be set to two levels (upper and middle), which is a convenient feature that reduces the burden when attaching the filling unit depending on the size of cylinder.
