We will be exhibiting at 3D Printing 2017!

Toray Precision Corporation has been solving customer problems and contributing to society with ultra-precision microfabrication technology since its establishment in 1955. We will be exhibiting at this exhibition a wide range of products, including not only samples created with metal 3D printers but also a collection of our long-cultivated ultra-precision microfabrication technology (processing samples). We invite you to visit our booth to see, touch, and experience them firsthand.

A must-see for those considering 3D printing with metal! The key points of design for 3D models are all covered in this one book!

The "Metal 3D Printer Handbook" is a must-read booklet for those considering metal 3D printing (metal additive manufacturing), featuring the principles of shaping, key points for designing models, and case studies. In most cases, additional material known as support is required to support the printed object during the shaping process. This handbook clearly explains the points for designing to minimize that support. 【Contents】 ■ About metal additive manufacturing ■ Design rules ■ Examples of supports and strategies to avoid them ■ Methods for removing supports ■ How to order and company introduction *Currently, we are offering the "Metal 3D Printer Handbook" as a special gift exclusively for Ipros users! For more details, please contact us or download the catalog to view.

A new manufacturing process that combines the freedom of metal 3D printing with high-quality precision machining! "One-stop support from modeling to quality control."

Metal additive manufacturing (metal 3D printing) is a technology that produces objects by irradiating metal powder with a laser to melt and solidify it. By layering metal powder in micrometer-thick layers, it is possible to obtain dense and high-precision parts. A wide range of products can be created, from large components up to 250×250×H325mm to small precision parts. We accommodate various needs from prototyping to mass production. By combining metal additive manufacturing with our precision machining technology, we have produced precision products that were previously difficult to achieve. - The three-dimensional sanitary piping is a product made by combining interior polishing (Ra13μm→Ra0.5μm) of inaccessible three-dimensional piping channels, machining, and welding. - The air flow channel component (free air flow channel with an oval cross-section) is a precision part that achieves a gap of 0.3mm and a surface roughness of Ra0.2μm through precision wire processing. - The lightweight gear features a lattice structure to reduce weight, with the end faces finished to a mirror surface through precision grinding. - The Trinity pendant consists of three interconnected components that rotate freely with minimal gaps. The end faces are also finished to a mirror surface through precision grinding.

The production of parts that was difficult with previous cutting processes has been realized! We offer a total solution from the preliminary stages of modeling to finishing!

"Metal additive manufacturing" directly creates complex-shaped parts from 3D data using a metal 3D printer. This manufacturing method involves irradiating a thin layer of metal powder with a laser to melt the necessary parts, then spreading more powder and repeating the same process to build the shape. Toray Precision, a pioneer in "ultra-precision microfabrication," offers comprehensive proposals that consider the product's functionality and finish from the early stages of manufacturing. 【Features】 ■ Production of parts that were difficult to achieve with traditional machining is now possible! ■ Secondary processing after shaping allows for improvements in dimensional accuracy and surface roughness! ■ By creating welded or segmented parts as a single unit, processing time can be reduced and costs can be lowered! ■ The range of sizes and types of materials that can be shaped has expanded, allowing for large-scale shaping of φ1320× height 1150mm! *Catalog with processing examples is currently available!

Are you making progress on measures for the "2024 Problem"? With stricter management of drivers' working hours, reducing "waiting time" has become an urgent issue in the logistics field. To address this challenge, our company, Hotron, proposes the "Vehicle Detection Ultrasonic Sensor 'HM-UX2'," which instantly grasps the availability of loading bays. The 'HM-UX2' contributes to the resolution of waiting times by accurately understanding the availability situation, reducing unnecessary waiting and queueing, and shortening waiting times to alleviate the burden on drivers! By replacing the "eyes" of your loading bay management with this high-precision sensor, why not start addressing the "2024 Problem"? Take a look at the product features: "Can it accurately detect availability?" "Can we really use it in our company?" "I just want to know the cost, even if it's an estimate." If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to consult with us.
