In response to rapid progresses and improvements of MC equipment, cutting tools, and peripheral equipment in terms of capability and performance, we have been developing proprietary machines and equipment dedicated to micro-processing, together with technology to incorporate high performance equipment into an optimum system for a specific purpose.

Through these activities, we continue to expand applicability of MCs in the domain of micro-machining, thus contributing to dissemination of the leading-edge processing technology and revitalization of the manufacturing industry as a whole.

What is iMC research that would lead to micro-machining?

What is iMC Integrated Machining Center?
A system to fabricate a product by means of integrated and composite management of conditions and phenomena related to the machining center in order to effectively control data-driven machining technology to its (minimum-level) limitation

We actualize precision micro-machining in invisible size by measuring and monitoring related conditions and phenomena, such as precision positioning of a material and physical characteristics of a cutting tool, to an extent and level not ordinally palpable, thereby controlling relevant external factors.

We are committed to leading technological innovations in the manufacturing sector by transforming a small town factory to a leading-edge technology development center. The key element is the machining center that has excellent processing capabilities, such as a high degree of adaptability to a wide variety of materials and quick machining time.

What exactly is iMC Research that would lead to micromachining?

Our idea of “iMC Machining Center” enables managamenet of relevant external factors of micromachining which was not taken care of seriously until then.

PROJECTS

When technology is developed to allow commercial manufacturing of microscopic parts that was thought to be far beyond our technical capability, what innovations will occur in production for a variety of industries, such as medical service, space technology, and IT?
We believe that making a breakthrough in the product design and development – by transcending a boundary or limitation that was previously impossible to overcome, thereby contributing to creation of a new, exciting product or service – starts with technological innovation at small factories.

Parts Manufacturing System with Repeat Accuracy within 0.003mm (verified)

Analysis was performed to verify accuracy of 1mm cubes, cylinders, and forceps produced using ORIGAMI, and 0.003mm* accuracy was verified. (* The sample was created  as test product at Iriso Seimitsu Co., Ltd., and the accuracy values are not listed as guarantee of manufacturing precision of ORIGAMI.)

Micro Manufactured Product Examples

Planet gears, shaft holders, bolts, and other micro part product examples are listed here.

PRODUCTS

Generally, it is believed that micro-machining requires highly costly and delicate operation and management together with a large-scale production system.
Micro Cutting R&D challenges this misconception in belief that small town factories, which serve as the core of industrial production, are capable of playing a vital role in the next-generation machining process. Through a firm commitment and support, we have been developing the series of machines and tools to support micro machining, which can be easily implemented by small town factories.
