"Oh yes, I think most of them do down there." - Sir George Head, OBE

Seriously though, the company in question is Sankyo Giken, English video here from 2009 here.
The machine is the Walther 3000.

The Chinese at various Zhengzhou machine companies in China have apparently in the interim taken the idea and run with it, with or without copyrights, and Alibaba lists about a half-dozen versions of similar machines on this site, for $5K@ and up.
