Medical Simulators
TANACTRAINING (Skin, Organs, and Blood Vessels)
TANACTRAINING by TANAC Co., Ltd. is a high-quality medical simulator designed to support skill development for healthcare professionals. Many of our products feature specially developed ultra-elastic gel materials that closely mimic the texture and flexibility of the human body, enabling realistic hands-on training. Key products include the Energy Device Training Model, which simulates procedures using electrosurgical and other energy devices; the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Simulator (EASY), designed to improve endoscopic techniques; and the Vascular Suturing Model, which provides a lifelike experience for practicing suturing and ligation.
TANACTBONE(Bone)
TANACBONE by TANAC Co., Ltd. is a high-precision synthetic bone model developed from CT data of Japanese individuals. It realistically reproduces bone shape and quality, offering a clinically relevant training experience for medical professionals and students. These models are also used in preclinical trials of medical devices for implant durability testing and risk evaluation. In addition to single- and double-layer models with varying densities, custom designs are available. Options such as X-ray-compatible processing and transparent models make them ideal for a wide range of applications, including implant demonstrations at exhibitions.
Medical Device Components
TANAC Co., Ltd. operates its own manufacturing facility, the TANAC Technology Center, which is registered as a medical device manufacturer and certified under ISO 13485. The center is equipped with state-of-the-art mass production and evaluation systems, as well as a Class 10,000 cleanroom, ensuring high standards for quality and hygiene.
Robotics
Products made with TANAC's ultra-elastic gel materials are highly regarded in the field of robotics. These materials offer exceptional elasticity, heat resistance, and shock absorption, contributing to the development of next-generation robotic technologies. Notable applications include robotic hand gloves for myoelectric prosthetic arms and gel grippers capable of handling soft foods and irregularly shaped industrial products without causing damage. Our materials are also used in covers and gloves for nursing care and industrial robots, helping reduce motor load and enabling smoother movements.
Aerospace
TANAC's ultra-flexible gel materials, known for their excellent stretchability, heat resistance, and shock absorption, are also making valuable contributions to cutting-edge aerospace applications.

New Materials
TANAC's proprietary material, Crystal GelR, is a thermoplastic material featuring exceptional transparency and over 1,000% elongation. It also offers excellent impact absorption, strength, acid and alkali resistance, and has minimal moisture absorption. With heat resistance up to 80°C and cold resistance down to -30°C, its hardness can be adjusted within the range of JIS E 0° to 50°. Both non-adhesive and high-adhesive versions are available, and the material is fully color-customizable. Crystal GelR complies with various safety and hygiene standards, including food packaging regulations and primary skin irritation tests. From prototype development to mass production, we offer full-scale support using specialized in-house equipment.
TOUGHSILON, developed by TANAC Co., Ltd., is an advanced silicone rubber with significantly enhanced strength compared to conventional silicone rubber. It enables ultra-low hardness molding and demonstrates outstanding heat resistance (up to 200°C), cold resistance (down to -50°C), weather resistance, and electrical insulation. Highly flexible and tear-resistant, it quickly returns to its original shape after repeated stretching without deformation. Hardness can be adjusted within the ranges of JIS E 0° to 20° and JIS A 10° to 30°, and the material is freely color-customizable. TOUGHSILON also complies with the Japanese Food Sanitation Law (MHLW Notification No. 370) and primary skin irritation standards.
MEDIPUR, created by TANAC Co., Ltd., is a super-soft urethane material designed primarily for medical organ simulators. This material significantly reduces tackiness while offering heat resistance up to 70°C and cold resistance down to -30°C. Its hardness is adjustable within the JIS E 0° to 50° range, and it allows full color customization. With proprietary in-house equipment, we support the entire process from prototyping to mass production. Representative products include realistic liver models and breast cancer palpation models, developed with a focus on lifelike texture and functionality.
