Recycling of Ticket Vending Machines and Ticket Gates

Recycling automated ticket vendors
OMRON verified the effectiveness of recycling with the aim of building a recycling scheme for end-of-life rail station systems such as automated ticket vending machines and automated passenger gates.
With the introduction of IC card service in the Tokyo metropolitan area, 5,300 units of automated ticket vendors and passenger gates had to be reconstructed. OMRON therefore collected 10 tons of waste parts, including printed circuit boards, cables, housing top panels and acrylic panels, and recycled 99.9% of them.
In fiscal 2007, OMRON will promote measures to enhance employee knowledge of waste management and disposal to minimize waste-related risk, while also expanding the range of products subject to recycling.
