For example, in the case of hole drilling jigs, we can create high-precision pins using the fine processing technology developed primarily for semiconductor inspection components, and by managing the clearance between the housing and the pins and conducting integrated production up to assembly, we can drill uniform holes. 【Do you have any of these concerns?】 ■ We purchase from overseas manufacturers, but the response when issues arise is… ■ The procurement lead times for the housing and pins differ, making delivery management difficult… ■ We order extra parts considering assembly yield, but inventory management is… ■ There is variation in the length precision of the pins, resulting in uneven holes… ■ Due to the impact of length precision, the frequency of pin replacements is high… *For improvement case studies, please request materials or view the PDF data from the download.

We are considering miniaturizing our products, but we lack the manpower to process them in-house. If you are facing challenges such as being unable to respond technically, please consult with us. Aikosha specializes in NC precision machining and processes fine parts such as contact probes for electrical testing of fine components (semiconductors, printed circuit boards, etc.), medical device parts, and industrial equipment parts. With NC machining, we can handle fine parts with an outer diameter of "0.05 mm to 6.0 mm." In drilling operations, we have a technical track record of achieving a minimum hole diameter of "0.009 mm (depth 1.0 mm)," and we are committed to high-precision manufacturing. We are pursuing new fields where we can further utilize the fine processing technology and know-how we have cultivated over many years, particularly in semiconductor inspection parts. If you are considering further miniaturization or fine parts, please consult with us. Currently, we are partially showcasing examples of fine parts processing! *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us directly.
