The wall thickness is reduced to 50% of the thickness of 5.0mm, with a width of 2.5mm. Normally, such punching would result in a twisted section, but through the development of a special processing method, more than 75% of both the inner and outer diameter sections are ensured.

Previously, the sector gear for sheet lifter was produced using fine blanking, but the production method was changed to sequential press processing. By controlling the shear droop to less than 0.2mm and ensuring a shear surface length of 90% or more, the accuracy was improved.

With the spread of Windows 95, we succeeded in mass production of the rotor yoke of floppy disk drives, which began ultra-mass production. Since an accuracy of 5 microns was required, such as shaft diameter tolerances, runout, and flatness, the dimensional accuracy of mold parts was finished with sub-microns.

Equipment	110-ton high-speed press
Product name	Rotor yoke
Material	EGC-E20/20
Thickness	0.6mm

Using the technology of overlapping plates without cutting, we have succeeded in the progressive press working of key holders.
Moreover, a fine hole of 0.5 mm dia. is produced for a thickness of 1.6 mm.

Equipment	100-ton high-speed press
Material	C2680-1/2H
Thickness	1.6mm

BEFORE: With the crank press, the spring back varied, and adjustment of the correction process was necessary when the material was changed.

AFTER: The servo press succeeded in reducing the spring back variation by slowing down during the bending process and stopping for 0.2 seconds at the bottom.

Until now, our company has excelled in narrow hole drilling using shearing technology, but we have further succeeded in drilling narrow holes with a higher aspect ratio by combining shearing technology with plate forging technology.
The former was φ1.2 for a thickness of 6 mm, while the latter realized φ1.15 for a height of 7 mm.

Using a progressive press, we successfully mass-produced rivet integrally formed car air-conditioner clutch parts.
A Φ3.0, 5 mm high pin was formed by plate forging, and by making full use of precision shearing technology, a 2 mm wide slit punching and an outer diameter sheared surface of 80% or more were achieved for a thickness of 4.3 mm.

We have successfully created precise shapes for the upper and lower surfaces of the punching hole.
The surface roughness is controlled at Ra0.3 or less because it is necessary to seal the oil with a ball that comes in contact with the R0.7 part, and the height tolerance when the ball is placed is maintained at ±0.01.

We have succeeded in simultaneous processing from both the front and back sides, which was difficult in the past. There is deviation on both sides and the thickness of the plate affects it.

The barring shape was formed by plate forging because a natural radius was not possible.

Press Continuous Marking System

Our continuous marking system uses a laser marker. By laser marking the obtained information and identification number of each piece directly on the product, traceability, which used to be by lot or by box, can be traced down to the individual piece.

Scribed Circle Marking System

System for creating scribed circle data using a laser marker.
Scribed circles used to be created by stamping metal ink, but by drawing scribed circles with a laser marker, lines do not disappear even in multiple processes, and precise measurement is now possible.

Press Sensing System – A system that uses sensors to monitor and control the processing conditions during press operations. The system helps to improve the quality and accuracy of press processing by continuously measuring and adjusting parameters such as temperature, pressure, and material Thickness

The operating dies are constantly monitored (sensing) and processed by an edge PC and simultaneously transferred to the cloud. Punch life prediction system using trend value management and Ai.
