Mayekawa Mfg. Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Koto-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Makoto Maekawa; hereinafter referred to as "the Company"), which manufactures and sells various industrial machinery, including industrial refrigerating machines with a global market share of over 40% (*1), and designs and constructs plants, exhibited at "FOOMA JAPAN 2026 ~The World's Largest Food Processing Industry Trade Show~" held at Tokyo Big Sight (West Exhibition Hall & East Exhibition Hall) from June 2nd (Tue) to June 5th (Fri), 2026. During the four-day event, approximately 2,400 visitors came to our booth, and it was bustling every day. We sincerely thank everyone for their great interest.

About This Exhibition (Exhibition Overview)

Under the booth concept "'ThermoEdge Solutions Netsupitta' - The Answer to Heat is Here -", we presented solutions tailored to customer challenges from the perspective of "heat" for all issues in food manufacturing.

We introduced our stainless steel belt x direct drive spiral freezer, which was unveiled for the first time at a domestic exhibition, along with a high-humidity refrigerated cooler and a natural refrigerant CO2 heat pump, through actual machine displays and panels, allowing visitors to experience the implementation image for creating sustainable food factories.

[Actual Machine Exhibition] ● Spiral Freezer

Achieves space saving by arranging conveyor belts in three dimensions. This freezer meets the needs for mass production in production sites where installation space is limited. The stainless steel belt x direct drive system is being unveiled for the first time in Japan. By adopting a direct drive system that directly engages the drum and belt, it enables high-speed conveyance while preventing product slippage. It is also compatible with plastic belts with excellent release properties.

● ZERO-Cool

We promoted "ZERO-Cool," a solution that simultaneously achieves factory heat countermeasures, energy saving, and CO2 emission reduction. ZERO-Cool is a heat pump system that supplies cold air to the factory and simultaneously utilizes the waste heat generated in the process as energy to produce hot water. By allocating the fuel cost savings of the hot water boiler to the heat pump's electricity costs, the cooling electricity costs can be "effectively zero" under certain conditions.

● Fully Automatic Deboning Robot for Chicken Thighs with Bones, Toridasu Mark III

"Toridasu series" has contributed to the automation of the deboning process for chicken thighs. The latest model, "Toridasu Mark III," commercialized in 2022, has improved processing speed from 1,000 pieces per hour to 1,200 pieces. By simply feeding bone-in chicken thighs into the machine, it separates the bones from the meat, achieving a yield comparable to manual work. At the booth, we demonstrated the deboning process for chicken thighs and made proposals to customers. We also introduced the "Knife Sharpener," a tabletop sharpener from Knecht, a German manufacturer of automatic grinding machines with a track record in meat processing robots.

● Exhibitor Presentation Seminar

Mr. Shusuke Matsumura (Industrial Thermal Energy Division) of our company gave a lecture titled "Energy Saving and Environmental Improvement Examples of Heat Pump Regenerative Desiccant Dehumidification" at Seminar Room 607 on the 6th floor of the conference building. We sincerely thank everyone who attended.

In the seminar, we introduced the "Heat Pump Regenerative Desiccant Dehumidification System" proposed by our company. This system uses a water-source heat pump for generating hot air in the adsorbent regeneration process, which consumes energy, instead of electric heaters or steam. The lecture included introduction points and case studies.

At this exhibition, we have sincerely received the valuable opinions and needs from everyone, and we will continue to strive to provide various solutions as a leading company in industrial machinery utilizing natural refrigerants.
