| To bring superior products to the customer,
as quickly as possible, Noritsu Koki has built a highly sophisticated,
integrated, factory-automated production system. In addition, high
product quality is consistently achieved by means of a total quality
control system which combines the joint efforts of the Development
and Production Divisions. |

Many factory operations are automated. Unmanned
operation at night is performed by sheet metal FMS equipment and
automatic lathes. Many other operations including welding, painting
and bending have also been automated. Automation enables us to make
products efficiently and with high precision, and at the same time
respond flexibly to market needs.
The basis of our production system is the spirit of independent
development. Most of the machinery and tools in our automated facilities
have been developed in-house. Technology developed in-house, including
precision processing of stainless steel sheet metal plates and metal
mold design and processing, supports the manufacturing of products
that are at the cutting edge of the industry. |

Our Research and Development Division aims
not only at maintaining quality in mass production, but also at
detecting problems early and providing feedback to shorten the lead
time from development to production.
In addition, the skills of our production personnel, together with
factory automation, are mobilized to provide high quality and efficient
production control. At each step of processing and assembly of the
thousands of parts that go into QSS, each worker is required to
take responsibility to maintain strict quality standards. Ideas
coming from the factory floor are put into practice immediately.
This corporate environment with its enterprising spirit promotes
continual improvement of the production system and ensures the high
precision and quality that will not disappoint our customers.
