Greeting

Since our founding in 1941, we have been producing a wide range of products including engine parts, transmission parts, body parts, and suspension parts. In response to threats such as CASE, shrinking domestic market, and declining working population, we have adopted "High value added job to people" as our slogan and are achieving DX starting from IoT. We are transforming our corporate culture while reducing labor costs by 400 million yen per year and electricity consumption by 22% compared to 2013 (as of June 2022). We have established a separate company, i Smart Technologies, to deploy this know-how to other companies, and we also provide IoT and consulting services.

We will continue to accumulate know-how while striving to improve our own productivity, and will continue to provide know-how and solutions for factory operations along with our products.
