The reason why Japan was successful in attaining this standard, was due to the development in precision technology during the economic growth period. The manufacturers focused on the improvement of the accuracy and control technology aspects of all of the machine components, including that of gears. The Micron Hob Cutter, one of our main products, assisted greatly in the dramatic improvement of the precision of the gears used in the small motors for measuring instruments, medical equipment, and high precision equipment from various fields.
