Takahide Nomura, President
In March 2014, for our efforts in the two above-mentioned businesses, we were honored to be chosen as a 100 Global Niche Top Company by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. It is for us an enormous joy to be widely recognized and appreciated in such guise for our management policies. In May 2015, due to housing land development connected to the internationalization of Haneda airport, our headquaters moved from Ota Ward, which had sustained us for about 40 years, to the Yokohama Industrial Park where we had originally been established. As a base for development and the pursuit of productivity, this is the kind of environment which will allow us to push forward more energetically than ever.
There can be no doubt that the globalization of the market and the progressive vanishing of borders will continue even in the future. Unfortunately our country, Japan, has entered an era of population decline. However, when we turn our eyes to the world, we see countries where population and markets are steadily growing. In this new age, our company is determined to keep up with the growth of the global market by strengthening our global system even more and by continuing to provide quality goods and services to our customers around the world. Then, moving away from the equation "Manufacturing = Machines and Products," and shifting from being a "Manufacturer" to being a "Consulting company" valued for its advising and proposing power, while continuing to keep products as our core business, we will keep providing "value" to our employees and customers alike. 2

Hydraulic cylinders for molds Molten aluminum
Core
Mold
The mold is tightened and the core is moved forward by means of the cylinders.
Molten aluminum is cast into the mold.
After the aluminum has solidified, the core is pulled out by means of the cylinders.
The mold is opened and the casting, for example an engine block, is removed.
The pillars of steel production and the heavy industry
Rotary joints
Our confidence is based on our exceptionally long experience and know-how
Rotary joints perform the role of supplying fluid to the rotating unit. In the steel industry, where they are mostly used, equipment failure can be as crucial as in the aircraft and railway industries. They are used by major manufacturers in Japan and overseas, contributing to the prosperity of the steel industry. They are also used for tunnel excavation shield machines, highway tunnel blowers and exhaust fans, rotary vacuum furnaces, centrifugal loading devices, etc.
Rotary core puller
A revolutionary cylinder which significantly reduces secondary processing after die casting.
AOC (Automatic Oil Cooling) cylinder
Automates the complicated air bleeding operation while keeping in check the temperature rise of the hydraulic oil.
