Class Cold Forging Technology Based on its Original Creative
Power, Hiraguchi Seitan Utilizes Cold Forging Technology to Realize Dream Products Since
its establishment in 1980, Hiraguchi Seitan has worked closely with its customers
as an exclusive cold forging manufacturer. In recent years, our advanced technological
prowess has been highly evaluated throughout the manufacturing sector, and as
a result we have achieved significant growth in sales and succeeded in expanding
and completing our facilities. In particular, in the ABS
(Auto Breaking System) sensoring field, which is indispensible in securing automobile
driving safety, we have reduced cutting costs to a mere fraction of the cost of
conventional methods, while at the same time achieving a remarkably increased
precision. Moreover, unlike conventional cutting, cold forging
is a processing method that does not produce wasteful swarf, so from this perspective
we are contributing to the environmental load reduction efforts of a variety of
industries. 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. Furthermore, we are continuing to
move forward based on our more than 40 years of cold forging-related experience
and accumulated technological know-how. For example, we are making a constant
effort to develop peripheral technology and new products in addition to strengthening
our cost competitiveness, improving energy efficiency and reducing the environmental
load of the processes we employ. Internationally, we have
also obtained a high evaluation from Holzer of Germany (In 2003, we obtained an
"construction method patent.") |
