For more than 70 years, we have earned the trust of many clients for our high-quality state-of-the-art manufacturing featuring complex, high-precision presswork. We are involved from the product development stage, and have created an integrated system that covers prototyping, die design and fabrication, pressing, welding, machining, assembly, cleaning, and surface treatment. In particular, to strengthen our Die Department , we have introduced cutting-edge equipment, raised the in-house production rate, and realized the fabrication of highly functional dies with unique specifications. In the Mass Production Department, we have over 130 press units including a 1200 t servo press developed jointly with a press manufacturer. We are building a high-quality production system by combining robots developed in house with presses and welding machines to promote innovative automation and rationalization. Our recent endeavors include strengthening our response capabilities for the production of parts for next-generation automobiles such as EV, as well as moving forward with development targeting the use of DX (Digital Transformation). Furthermore, we actively take measures consistent with SDGs. The environment that surrounds us is constantly changing in dramatic ways, and for us to realize our goal it is necessary for the organization to work organically based, for example, on the spirit of harmony, trust, and communication, and for all staff to be able to fully exert their skills and abilities. To this end, we are concentrating our efforts on human resource development and environmental improvement to create a rewarding workplace. We welcome the challenge of pursuing technical innovation in the field of presswork to meet the expectations of our clients. We will continue to work hard and look forward to your continuing support.
Motto: Happiness, Service, Prosperity
Management Philosophy: Polish skills,
Nurture harmony, Realize dreams.

KUNO Kinzoku Industry takes a variety of initiatives within and outside of the company. See our efforts below.
For presswork makers, dies are the most important piece of know-how, and the technical capabilities of presses are mostly determined by die precision. At our company, more than 90% of dies are fabricated in-house, taking advantage of our expert die-making techniques and extensive equipment line-up. We handle everything in-house from the design to manufacturing and maintenance, and we have built advanced technologies in the fields of die design, die parts processing, and trial adjustment, which are the key to high-precision dies.
Since the development of FA robots in the 1980s, we have been putting effort into the use of ICT. Using a combination of our own servers, IoT, and cloud computing, we have introduced a dedicated in-house system for production management, die management, quality control, management of EDI suppliers, all the way to automated warehouse management. We are also moving forward with the automation of our expertise with ICT for the improvement of production processes using mobile devices and the systemization of our craftsmen’s intuition and skill. This has enabled the creation of an environment in which staff can concentrate on coming up with work ideas and strengthening their technical capabilities.
Our company has a history of more than 70 years with advanced technology as our competitive edge. Since our founding, we have placed the utmost importance on the development of outstanding staff to support our technical capabilities, and have continued to actively foster development of skills through various education and training programs. We also exert effort in creating a climate that encourages proactive technical improvement and the improvement of productivity at worksites through technical certifications that motivate staff to improve their skills and through club activities that provide opportunities for self- and mutual development.
We are a metalworking manufacturer that provides a full range of services manufacturing pressed parts for automobiles and other equipment, from process development, product design, die design and creation, and pressing, through to secondary processing such as machining, welding, and heat treatment. With a combination of wide-ranging underlying technologies, expert die-making techniques accumulated since the company’s founding, and a variety of equipment developed in-house, we are able to provide difficult highly complex high-precision presswork. We support production of the most advanced parts, a field that is progressing rapidly in functionality, such as through the use of high-tensile materials.
With our integrated system that handles all pre- and post-processing of presswork, it is possible to manufacture products with consideration in the development stage given to processes after pressing. By creating manufacturing drawings in consideration of post-processes, which are not shown in the product blueprints, we can prevent problems that may arise during mass production, and also improve precision with the combination of processes. Even if you only require product blueprints, we can provide the shape and precision you need quickly and reliably.
