[Company Profile]

Founded in 1934 and headquartered in Fukushima, Japan, the company is one of the leading enterprises in Japan’s die casting industry.

Since its establishment, it has consistently specialized in the field of aluminum die casting. The extensive experience and expertise accumulated over the years have been actively applied to challenges in various fields, including the development of innovative semi-solid metal casting technologies and the research and manufacturing of environmentally friendly products.

[Expertise]

  • New Technology: “NanoCast”

    Compared with conventional semi-solid casting technology, “NanoCast” offers the advantages of high quality, high productivity, low cost, and space efficiency.
    Depending on customer requirements, specifications, and production environments, it enables the provision of high-quality product manufacturing and sales through the most suitable processes and technologies.

    • Features of NanoCast

  • Category of the New Technology: “NanoCast Method”

  • Production Process of NanoCast

    A technology that achieves optimal mechanical properties and pressure resistance in castings.

  • Compared with Other Casting Technologies

  • Advantages of NanoCast

    • Significant reduction in required investment costs
      ※Example:10,000 units/month × 5 years (60 months) = 600,000 units
      Total mold investment cost for production:
      (Conventional Casting: Mold durability ≈ 150,000 shots |NanoCast: Mold durability ≈ 500,000 shots|Cost per mold set ≈ 5 million JPY
    • Reducing Defective Product Handling Costs (Improved Yield Rate)
      If defects occur during production due to product shape or wall thickness issues, or if airtightness defects are discovered after machining, leading to additional costs for remedial measures such as impregnation processing—why not consider switching to NanoCast?NanoCast is a casting technology with extremely few shrinkage cavities and internal defects (gas content: less than 5 cc per 100 g-Al). Because the molten metal is filled into the mold while maintained in a semi-solid state during the casting process, even molds with wall thicknesses or shapes that are difficult to produce with conventional casting will have almost no internal porosity defects. This also makes it possible to significantly reduce scrap losses.
