Look, think, move forward.
While focusing on the “three realms” principle that underpins our corporate philosophy of “Look, think, move forward,” we are constantly striving to advance one step further to achieve the quality and technology that our customers seek.
Message from the President
Since our establishment in 1956, we have been engaged in the manufacture of various precision jigs, special measuring instruments, and other equipment based on our technological experience of manufacturing precision tools such as special drills, and have been involved in the manufacture of precision parts for major heavy industrial manufacturers and other customers in various fields.
Advanced processing technology and high quality are required in the manufacture of aircraft jet engine components, and we entered this field in 1982. Today, we are working to improve our production technology and quality control systems, expand our facilities, and achieve manufacturing that is one step ahead of our customers’ expectations, in order to become a leading company in the contracted parts processing indus-try.
In response to today’s diverse market needs, we will continue to play a role in monozukuri based on our precision processing technology and quality control system cultivated in the aerospace field, while pursuing the happiness of our employees through “human resource development” so that we can assist and contribute to the development of local communities.
