We have it in our mind to develop our business further and to expand our organization. Needless to say, we aim not only to expand our business but also to improve our technology that is the main stay of our company. The super-precise 1/1000mm technology that we pride ourselves in still allows further pursuit. Machine tools and other equipment need to be developed to enhance accuracy, but at the same time, the sensitivity and senses of engineers need to be heightened to enable higher accuracy. Our engineers are already stepping into a new field. You can expect Yamaichi Seiko, which has pioneered the limits and possibilities of dies and molding, to develop further.
