Small lots starting from just one piece are OK! No molds required, allowing for free shapes and cost reduction. The bending process of the craft former requires no cutting oil and generates minimal chips, making it energy-efficient and material-saving.
We manufacture various shapes of covers and circular covers using the stamping sheet metal technology developed from the production of Shinkansen train car bodies. 【Overview】 Processing method: Bending processing using a craft former Size: 1.2t × 20 × 50 φ150 *Please consult us Material: Stainless steel, aluminum, iron, etc. Lot size: 1 to 100 *Please consult us <Case Information> We received a request for the production of a circular cover with a minimum radius of φ120, which was difficult to achieve with conventional machining. By utilizing stamping sheet metal technology, we were able to achieve high-precision curved surface processing without the need for dedicated molds, meeting our customer's requirements. We are continuously conducting prototypes, so please feel free to contact us. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Company information
This is a sheet metal processing company that was established the year before the Tōkaidō Shinkansen began operations to manufacture the streamlined front body (the part referred to as the "face"). As a certified partner factory of Hitachi, Ltd., we produce not only the front body but also sheet metal parts for the driver's cabin and control panel. We have a manufacturing track record of over 400 vehicles across 25 models, from the 0 series to the latest E8 series of Shinkansen. Our craftsmanship, which allows us to create various single items and small production parts composed of three-dimensional curved surfaces without the use of press molds, has been recognized (Japan Monozukuri Award, Regional Future Leading Company). We are expanding the applications of our Shinkansen parts manufacturing technology, particularly into new fields and products such as architectural sheet metal with three-dimensional curved surfaces and industrial machinery and equipment. We accommodate the transition from hand-drawn sketches to two-dimensional and three-dimensional CAD data, as well as miniature modeling with 3D printers and prototypes. We have obtained the SBT certification for small and medium-sized enterprises and the Yamaguchi Renewable Energy Power Utilization Business Certification (100% renewable energy rate). We are an investment recipient of the Osaka Small and Medium Enterprise Investment Development Company (government-affiliated VC). Utilizing techniques for three-dimensional curved surface shaping with stamping sheet metal and forming processing machines, as well as aluminum and stainless steel welding, we aim to be a sheet metal processing company that stands in society.
