State of the art plants with production systems amongst the best in the world
|
In order to meet our customer's needs quickly and flexibly, while consistently offering quality products, our goal is to continually modernise and produce an intelligent product line based on an on-line comprehensive management system.
Along with the introduction of the most advanced machines and test instruments, which are capable of processing to the highest precision, we are constantly refining the KATO manufacturing system.
Through a combination of many high performance machines and robots, we have achieved remarkable advances throughout the entire production process, and this systematic and unified production line has meant better working conditions as well.

LaboratoryAs part of our research and development facilities, we have an electromagnetic shielded room and a temperature cycle change chamber. We also have automated devices that test components' resistance to complex vibration, structural fatigue, impact and a variety of other test equipment available. Test CourseWe have built a 15 degree and 30 degree incline as well as a rough surface test facility. Here we carry out performance checks on our equipment under the most severe conditions.
Quality ControlFor production inspection,we have introduced high-tech equipment such as an ultrasonic deep defect tester, as part of an absolute quality assurance programme. And, particularly for hydraulic equipment, we perform critical tests using the most advanced test instruments. In addition, we use stress test equipment. as part of our total quality system.
FabricationWe have introduced equipment such as plasma cutters, automated welding machines, welding robots and NC machines which ensure the highest level of precision in the manufacturing process. |
