Capabilities

Modular engineering units tailored to each challenge.

We rapidly configure cross-disciplinary technology blocks across hardware and software based on target characteristics and performance needs, delivering continuity from modeling to bench validation.

Real-time control platforms

We design microsecond-scale control loops using FPGAs, DSPs, and MCUs, delivering implementations that include sensor calibration, noise engineering, and fail-safe coverage.

  • FPGA
  • TI C2000
  • STM32

Business applications & visualization

We build measurement and control frontends and business applications in Rust, C++, and C#, planning the overall architecture including logging, analysis, and dashboards.

  • Rust
  • C++/Qt
  • .NET

Mixed signal measurement systems

We capture analog and digital signals simultaneously and stream them to hosts in real time, shortening development cycles with internal variable visualization and automated diagnostics.

  • High-speed ADC
  • Real-time transfer
  • Automated analysis

Field testing & automation

We combine robotics with remotely operable instruments to automate repeated and endurance tests, enabling fast regression cycles after updates.

  • Robot arms
  • Automated test scripts
  • Remote operations

Why Furukawa Control

Analog intuition and digital precision, delivered by one team.

When circuits, control, and applications are separated into phases, troubleshooting at the boundaries consumes precious time. At 古川制御株式会社 we design architecture with full-system visibility and provide cohesive implementation and verification.

  • Manage models, firmware, and UI from a single source tree
  • High-resolution logging with cloud-ready visualization templates
  • Remote reviews and hybrid workflows that support teams nationwide

Rapid Co-Design

We maintain a prototyping environment that keeps hypothesis, validation, and evaluation continuous, advancing measurement, control, and applications in parallel.

Process

A noise-free way to run projects.

  1. 01

    Discovery & Signal Mapping

    We visualize frequency ranges and acceptable latency, inventory required sensors, compute resources, and UI needs, and create a shared system map.

  2. 02

    Prototype Sprint

    A two-week sprint that assembles FPGA and microcontroller boards alongside PC applications, tuning together with shared measurement data.

  3. 03

    Scale & Automation

    We prepare reliability design for production and establish automated test environments, setting up suites runnable with remotely operated instruments.

  4. 04

    Continuous Insight

    After launch we link signal logs and applications, automating verification for every update and partnering on long-term improvements.
