Constructive Technical Proposals from Closer Cooperation with Customers

As one aspect of "concurrent engineering", we have dispatched engineers to some customer locations to provide technological proposals from the development stage, which supports our customers' product development. In addition, our analysis technologies, including structural, metal flow and solidification analyses help to optimize product geometries. In CAD/CAM systems, we are actively promoting 3-D systems, and are working to reduce die development and fabrication times.
