Corporate
Profile

[Company strength]
We make conceptual proposals according to the customer’s required specifications. 
Peripheral devices are mostly designed and manufactured within the corporate group for many major machine tool manufacturers. We are an independent company, so we do business with many machine tool manufacturers. The main machinery manufactured by a machine tool manufacturer is integrated with our peripheral devices, and installed at the end user’s site as a completed product. Please feel free to contact us for additions and alterations for peripheral devices in cases of retrofitting and modification of end user facilities. 

[Business description]
We mainly design, manufacture, and supply ATCs (Automatic Tool Changers), APCs (Automatic Pallet Changers), AACs (Automatic Attachment Changers), AWCs (Automatic Grindstone Changers), work conveyers, and gantry loaders. They are used as peripheral devices for machine tools by domestic and overseas machine tool manufacturers. 
We also accept orders for a range of various automation devices and labor-saving devices, and dedicated control panels for such devices. 

[Industry]
Machine and instrument manufacturing

[Strength of products/technologies]
We have been supplying our peripheral products to machine tool manufacturers for international exhibitions such as JIMTOF, IMTS, and EMO since our foundation. 
Our products are used for manufacturing parts for automobiles, aircraft, ships, agricultural machines, and so on. They are used in the production facilities of domestic and overseas companies through machine tool manufacturers. 
We have delivered ATC devices with 2 to 200 piece storage capacity and APC devices from 400 to 1100 × 7000 with 2 to 8 surface pallet storage capacity. We have also supplied loaders from 200-gram to 20-ton work. 

[Representative's message]
Our company has been steadily advancing on the basis of our long-term experience in development, production technology, and sales activity since its foundation in November 1987. We treat various kinds of machine tools, such as NC retro and MC technology. Our corporate philosophy is “Excellent technology and creation.” The quantity of orders per customer is tending to decrease, so we have to explore new domestic and overseas customers. 
We have to support domestic machine tool manufacturers to launch their overseas activities (joint enterprises, full ownership of capital, and technological cooperation).

[Company structure for market development/overseas expansion]
Our president will respond directly to new customers.
A responsible staff member will take over support from the president for subsequent transactions.
