The PQA Business mainly provides three types of inspection equipment—checkweighers, metal detectors, and X-ray inspection systems—primarily targeting the food inspection market and the pharmaceutical inspection market.
By combining the signal processing and noise reduction technologies it has cultivated with high-precision sensors and image analysis, and the latest AI technology, Anritsu has contributed to improving the quality of food and pharmaceutical products manufactured by its customers through ultra-high-speed weighing, detection of minute foreign substances, and shortage inspections to compensate for labor shortages.
Anritsu has top-class market share in Japan, along with Ishida Co., Ltd., and is also accelerating business growth overseas.
