I know this post is about money, but I want to talk about electronic flow meters than money so I will. The description of "Japanese company making the best electronic flow meters" strongly suggests it is Keyence. They are the best indeed.
Keyence is the 3rd largest Japanese company by market capitalization, next to Toyota and Japan's largest bank (Mitsubishi). Larger than Sony, larger than Nintendo, larger than Honda, etc. Keyence does sensors and nothing but sensors.
If you want to learn about the science of flow meters, you can visit a site maintained by Keyence, Flow Knowledge. Where you read that electromagnetic flow meters (this is proper name for "electronic" flow meters, which may be used for lay audience) detect flow by using Faraday's Law of induction.

- EduardLev 2y agoWow, what a great website. I wish I had found that back when I was a chemical engineer.
- bitschubser_ 2y agoUhhh this highly depends on the industry… for industry grade flow meters Endress+Hauser or Emerson are actually the first that come into my mind
- cushychicken 2y agoThey also make great digital microscopes.
- ramchip 2y agoVery tangential, but as a worker in Japan I find it depressing how Keyence's recruiting material proudly shows a software engineer's typical day that starts at 8:30AM and ends around 8:00PM. No wonder it's so hard to raise kids. https://www.keyence.co.jp/jobs/software-engineer/ https://www.keyence.co.jp/jobs/software-engineer/

- eddd-ddde 2y ago> Because we emphasize a clear distinction between work and private life, we strictly prohibit employees from taking their work home with them. Wow thank you so much Keyence! I won't have to think about work in the 15 minutes of free time I get!
- fomine3 2y agoKeyence is known for one of the most very hard-work culture company.
