[Company strength]
We can propose appropriate solutions based on our technologies.  Our electronic, electrical, mechanical, and software engineers appropriately meet customer needs with our measurement, control, and communications technologies. They produce unique technologies one after another, which will lead to next-generation products. We also excel at customizations that major manufacturers do not handle. Engineers account for 70% of our staff. We can provide integrated solutions from planning and proposals to development, design, trial manufacturing, mass production, and maintenance.

[Business description]
Our business consists of designing, manufacturing, and selling mechanical controllers, information processing devices, measurement controllers, robot machine controllers, image processing systems, and labor-saving and automation machines. Our company has been implementing various inspection and measuring machines, controllers, and unattended labor-saving machines since its foundation. This is done by applying advanced hardware, software, and mechanical design technologies based on our extensive achievements and experience. We meet a wide variety of needs in the fields of automobiles, aerospace, chemistry, medicine, semiconductors, agriculture, and so on.

[Industry]
Mechanical controller and other device design, manufacturing, and sales

[Strength of products/technologies]
We have unique in-house products and articles developed by bringing together our wealth of experience and technology. Our company possesses various technologies for measurement, electronic circuit design (analog and digital), motion control, communications, software (embedding, personal computers, control, applications, images, etc.), and mechanical design. We are committed to making use of these technologies to produce optimal devices from every aspect. Our company is highly appreciated for its high accuracy, speed, and stability, as well as the refined operability, low cost, and compactness of our products.

[Representative's message]
Our company takes on the challenge of product development with new functions based on new ideas. We have developed an advanced next-generation controller for a control system and a program development tool (NX-2000-Fit) for easy programming, even for someone who is not familiar with programming languages. Japanese companies are extending their businesses overseas and increasing production by local companies outside Japan, and in this context our overseas development is also becoming a matter of urgency. All of us will proactively capture customer needs in Japan and abroad to extend our sales channels to a wider area.

[Company structure for market development/overseas expansion]
We aim to attract many visitors to our website as part of our sales channel development, and hope to find potential customers through applications for materials and inquiries. This is why we are enriching our website content (sales copy, videos, English instruction manuals, etc.). We focus on strengthening our development and production systems for new products for sale both in Japan and abroad. We also concentrate on training staff for after-sales maintenance. We are proactively promoting sales activities with local trading firms and companies with domestic Japanese and overseas exhibitions.
