Expertise and Creativity to Bring Visions to Life with Cold Forging

Hiraguchi Seitan is a cold forging manufacturer, and they have maintained cooperative relationships with their clients for three decades. With increasing sales and a larger selection of equipment, the advanced technologies they apply to their work is popular with their clients.

For example, they have cut conventional cutting costs to a fraction of their previous cost while greatly improving precision for ABS sensor rings, an indispensible part of the safety equipment installed in automobiles.

Cold forging differs from conventional cutting in that waste is not created, lowering the burden on the environment, a welcome development in any industry. Hiraguchi Seitan uses specially developed techniques for mold and process development, the most critical part of cold forging. Working from this base, they dedicate themselves to prototype and development orders from leading companies as well as providing technological guidance.

We possess original methods of developing metal molds and processes, which are the most important elements in cold forging. Backed by these techniques, we are entrusted with trial production and development work by a number of leading companies, and we are also pouring our power into providing technological guidance.

Experience over 40 years in cold forging, they are proud of their world-class technology and expertise. To maintain their advantage, they continue to develop their techniques for secondary processes, new products, more competitive costs, new ways to improve efficiency and techniques to lower the environmental burden even further.

One noteworthy mention of praise comes from German company Holzer, which patented a manufacturing method in 2003.
