PixeVision is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Three-Up Technology Co., Ltd. (株式会社スリーアップ・テクノロジー), marking the company’s official entry into the Japanese market.
This partnership represents a significant milestone in PixeVision’s regional expansion — extending our industrial AI solutions beyond Malaysia and into one of Asia’s most advanced and knowledge-intensive manufacturing economies.
About Three-Up Technology Co., Ltd.
Three-Up Technology Co., Ltd. (株式会社スリーアップ・テクノロジー) is a Japan-based specialist in industrial IoT and AI solutions for the manufacturing sector.
With over 26 years of hands-on factory experience and a track record of more than 50 successful IoT and AI implementations, they support manufacturers across Japan — from large enterprises to mid-sized factories — in modernising their operations through data-driven technology.
What sets Three-Up Technology apart is their ability to work with both legacy and modern factory equipment, providing end-to-end services from IoT system integration and cloud data management through to real-time analytics and AI deployment.
Their deep-rooted factory expertise and focus on building robust data foundations for AI adoption makes them the ideal partner to bring EKE™ to the Japanese market.
What This Partnership Covers
Through this collaboration, Three-Up Technology will introduce PixeVision’s AI Knowledge Management EKE™ (Embedded Knowledge Engine) to Japanese manufacturers — an industrial AI knowledge management solution purpose-built for the factory floor.
EKE™ helps manufacturers tackle one of the most pressing operational challenges in modern industry: the loss of irreplaceable engineering knowledge.
As experienced engineers and technicians retire, decades of troubleshooting expertise, process know-how, and institutional memory walk out the door with them. EKE™ captures, organises, and makes that knowledge instantly accessible — through a conversational AI interface that any team member can use, without technical training.
Key capabilities EKE™ brings to Japanese manufacturers include:
- Knowledge capture — digitise SOPs, maintenance logs, and engineer expertise into a centralised, searchable knowledge base
- Data unification — connect siloed MES, ERP, and PLC systems into a single AI-powered layer
- Instant answers — operators and engineers get accurate, contextual answers from a chat interface, reducing downtime and dependency on senior staff
- AI workflow automation — routine data queries and reporting tasks handled automatically, freeing engineers for higher-value work
Why Japan, Why Now
Japan’s manufacturing sector faces one of the most acute knowledge retention challenges in the world. With a generation of highly skilled engineers approaching retirement and birth rates declining, Japanese factories are under mounting pressure to preserve decades of institutional expertise before it is lost permanently.
EKE™ is purpose-built for exactly this challenge. Rather than replacing engineers, it acts as a living knowledge system that grows alongside your team — ensuring that what your best people know today remains accessible long after they have moved on.
The partnership with Three-Up Technology brings EKE™ into a market where the need is both urgent and well understood.
SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026
As part of this milestone, PixeVision attended SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026 — one of Japan’s premier technology and innovation showcases — to explore the country’s cutting-edge tech ecosystem and forge connections within the local manufacturing and AI community.
The event reinforced what we already believed: Japan is ready for the next generation of industrial AI, and the timing for PixeVision’s market entry could not be more fitting.
This partnership with Three-Up Technology is part of PixeVision’s broader strategy to bring industrial AI solutions to manufacturers across Southeast and East Asia. With established footholds in Malaysia, Vietnam, and Indonesia, Japan marks our next step in making AI-powered knowledge management accessible to factories across the region.
This is just the beginning — and there is more to come.
