Research & Development
Industry-academia collaboration that transcend national boundaries
We have been proud to conduct joint research with universities, companies and research institutes at home and abroad for many years.
For example, we have conducted joint research on precious metal MIMs with Tohoku University and research projects on advanced materials with energy companies. Such industry-university collaborations are very rare for a MIM manufacturer in Japan.
As a MIM component manufacturer focused on research and development, we promote joint research by using the fields of expertise and facilities of both parties to expand our shared know-how.

Our R&D partners
Our R&D base in Japan
The laboratory places particular emphasis on analysis and measurement systems.
Especially for the quality assurance of functional metals such as μ-MIM components, it is equipped with devices that can compete with those of top university laboratories.

Our R&D base in Thailand
At MTEC (Link), which is led by NSTDA (Link), female researchers spearhead R&D on topics that are different from those of our Japanese research base.
These include composite technology for various materials, optimization of sintering conditions, and stabilization technology for mass production.
