What TOYO KANETSU Logistics Solutions does

TOYO KANETSU Logistics Solutions is the Solutions Business Headquarters (ソリューション事業本部) of TOYO KANETSU Corporation, a Japanese material handling and logistics system manufacturer founded in 1955 and headquartered in Koto-ku, Tokyo. The division designs, sells, and integrates customized ("one-of-a-kind" / オンリーワン) logistics automation systems covering the full stack: sorting (T-sort AMR-based system, 3D Sorting System, belt sorters), storage (Multi-Shuttle, AutoStore integration, Modula VLM, pallet AS/RS, bucket AS/RS, electric pallet racks, case flow racks), transport (Pallet Shuttle, RGV, Simple AGV Key Cart, Rapyuta PA-AMR Series), warehouse management software, and peripheral equipment (RFID, Nestack, destackers, film inserters, replenishment carts). It also supplies airport baggage handling systems (Triplaner, Belt Carry Sorter, conveyors, high-speed belts, horizontal and hinged diverters, self-service baggage drop, explosive detection systems, and an AI/image-analysis monitoring system) to major domestic and international airports.

The business operates a direct enterprise sales model targeting 3PL providers, manufacturers, retailers/e-commerce players, agricultural cooperatives, and airport operators. Revenue is generated through one-time system sales (large custom-engineered projects) supplemented by recurring maintenance and IoT-based predictive maintenance subscriptions (TKK-PMD Series). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; quotations are bespoke. Geographic footprint centers on Japan, with a national service network (HQ, Technical Center Haneda Satellite, Fukuoka Center with Kagoshima Satellite, Yamanashi Parts Center, Wakayama Factory) and emerging international presence through exhibitions such as Manufacturing Indonesia 2025. In July 2026, the division acquired World Link Co., Ltd. as a wholly-owned subsidiary, expanding service capabilities. The division employs 37 people.
