TOBATA IRON WORKS Co.,LTD

We offer integrated production from FC and FCD pig-iron casting to coating and processing

Our company was established as a factory for manufacturing and machining cast products under an integrated production system. We have been expanding our business to large and advanced pig-iron cast products made of ductile, heat-resistant, abrasion-resistant, and tough cast iron. We started manufacturing small products by the lost wax method in 1983. Our company is devoted to high-mix low-volume production by manual production using self-curing molds. We manufacture products mainly for industrial machines in the iron-making, shipbuilding, electric power, and machine tool fields, but we also provide our products to a wide range of production fields. We are one of the few manufacturers of cast products as large as the 20-ton class in the Kyushu region, and we maintain stable prototyping, mass production, quality, and delivery.

[Company Strengths]
Our company mainly manufactures products by casting. We manufacture a wide range of small products in large quantities or large products in small quantities even though the materials are different. We mainly handle large pig-iron cast products with a unit weight up to about 20 tons. We have a track record of applying our technologies to the fields of iron-making, machine tools, valves, compressors, ships, and electric power. We mainly use lost-wax precision casting to manufacture small articles with a unit weight from 5 g to 2 kg. We have a track record of lost-wax precision casting for the automobile, sanitary, and general industrial machinery fields. We can satisfy customer delivery and quality requests with the close linkage between our sales, manufacturing, and quality management divisions.

[Business Description]
Our company was established as an integrated factory for manufacturing and machining cast products. We have been satisfying needs in various industries since our establishment, and expanding our business to large and advanced pig-iron cast products.
