TECHNOLOGY

Next Science researches and verifies unseen areas such as electronic environments, friction and lubrication, combustion and fuels, functional materials, and life and nature.

Bringing out what should be and opening up new possibilities.

TECHNOLOGY

Transforming conditions from the invisible realm.

NEXT SCIENCE isn't just researching visible components.

Electronic environments.
Friction.
Lubrication.
Combustion.
Fuel.
Materials.
And the workings of life and nature.

When the movement of a car or machine changes, there isn't always just one cause.

It's not just friction.
It's not just fuel.
It's not just materials.

Multiple elements overlap, and their state appears as a result.

We are focusing on that "hard-to-see realm."

Strengthening something.
Forcibly improving performance.

It's not just that.

Reducing what causes resistance.
Correcting disordered states.
Drawing out the inherent functions of materials and machinery.

NEXT SCIENCE's technology begins there.

Science Beyond the Visible.

Beyond what is visible.

Electronic Environment

Establish an electronic environment.

Electricity flows through cars and machinery.

However, what we observe is not simply voltage or current.

The electrification of parts and materials.
Potential differences.
Electrical imbalances.
The electronic state surrounding metals and resins.

This environment is invisible to the naked eye.

Nevertheless, it cannot be said to be unrelated to the movement and friction of machinery, contact conditions, and the functioning of electrical systems.

At NEXT SCIENCE, we regard the electronic environment as a field of research.

Technologies such as ORBITRON and Microreactor originated from this field.

Our goal is not simply to increase electricity.

It is to optimize the electronic environment surrounding machinery itself, and to reduce factors that hinder its intended operation.

This is what we define as the Electronic Environment.

Friction and Lubrication

Friction isn't something you can simply eliminate.

Wherever there's a machine in motion, there's friction.

Engines.
Gears.
Bearings.
Dies.
Sliding parts.

Friction is everywhere.

However, friction isn't simply a "villain."

Some friction is necessary.
Some friction is better reduced.

The important thing is whether it's in the right state for its specific location.

At NEXT SCIENCE, we consider not only friction itself, but also the interactions with lubricants, additives, surface conditions, and materials.

Lubrication isn't just about applying oil.

It's about understanding what's happening between moving surfaces.

That's what we observe.

Oil and chemical technologies, including SPIN, are researched based on this philosophy.

Combustion & Fuel

Observe the fuel before combustion.

When considering combustion, we often observe the "aftermath of combustion."

Output.
Exhaust.
Fuel efficiency.
Temperature.

However, at NEXT SCIENCE, we also focus on the "state of the fuel" beforehand.

Gasoline.
Diesel.
Kerosene.

Even with liquid fuels, their properties and uses differ.

Storage conditions.
Low-temperature environment.
Fluidity.
Combustion environment.
Relationship between fuel and machinery.

Fuel is not merely something transported from the tank to the combustion chamber.

How do we prepare the fuel's state before combustion?

By considering this, we can view the phenomenon of combustion from a different angle.

GERHON originated from this research area of Combustion & Fuel.

Materials & Functional Components

Materials have properties that have not yet been utilized.

Metals.
Ceramics.
Minerals.
Carbon materials.
Semiconductor materials.

Each material has its own unique properties.

Not just strength.

Conductivity.
Heat.
Magnetism.
Piezoelectricity.
Surface properties.
Chemical stability.

At NEXT SCIENCE, we research not only the performance of individual materials, but also what happens when multiple materials are combined.

Then, we translate material research into usable components.

Titanium bolts and functional parts are an extension of this philosophy.

It's not just about choosing materials.

Shape.
Processing method.
Combination.
Installation location.

We believe that only when all of these factors are considered does a component truly "function."

Life & Nature

Living things are not machines.

You cannot apply the same mechanical thinking to animals and plants.

Life has its own mechanisms.

Water.
Minerals.
Soil.
Environment.
Contact with materials.

It cannot be explained by a single factor alone.

At NEXT SCIENCE, instead of forcing changes upon animals and plants, we focus on their inherent functions and their relationship with the surrounding environment.

German Power for Animals.
German Power for Plants.

These products, too, originate not from the idea of "controlling" life and nature, but from observing their relationship with the environment.

Especially in this area, we value observing and verifying rather than making assertions.

FROM TECHNOLOGY TO VERIFICATION

Technology doesn't stop at just being thought of.

A hypothesis alone is not technology.

We build it.
We use it.
We measure it.
We compare it.

Only then do things become clear.

Sometimes the results are as expected.

Sometimes they are not.

Pursuing those differences is research.

At NEXT SCIENCE, we take hypotheses generated through Technology and advance them to experiments and real-world validation.

Our approach to research and development will be introduced in Research & Development.
