8 Development Bldg. Introduction of specialized sections (1) Let s Try with TRI ! Machining and Molding Section To provide a material with a form (processing) means to build up mechanical, electromagnetic, and optical characteristics in the material. This section engages in a wide range of processing types, such as removal processing (machining, electric processing, and laser processing), deforming (plastic forming and plastics molding), and adding (metal layer forming) and in this way supports manufacturing activities. Particularly, under keywords such as difficult-to-grind materials, micro fabrication, surface improvement, environmental harmonization, manufacturing of a wide variety of products in small quantities, micro forming, etc.

9 , this section sets out micro fabrication and complex processing of PCD molds, local alloying process by laser, press forming of fuel cell separators, and metal RP forming of low-elasticity and high-strength artificial bones. Meanwhile, with regard to post-process product evaluation technology, we conduct activities such as precision measurement (dimension, shape, roughness), material testing of plastics (tensile, bending, and compression), observation and element analysis by a scanning type electron microscope and non-destructive inspection by an X-ray CT introduced last year as well. We are ready for consultation on a variety of processing issues.

10 (We can also visit your site for your convenience.) Micro fabrication and complex processing system and processing examples Appearance of non-destructive inspection X-ray CT system and imaging examples Technical field key words Electric processing / Laser processing / Precision processing & precision measuring Forging & pressing form processing / Plastic form processing / Metal layer forming This device is equipped with functions of micro electric discharge machining, grinding, and micro tool forming, which enables processing of ultra-fine (less than several m) holes and grooves. By use of this device, it is possible to obtain high-quality and high-resolution sectional pictures with a non-destructive method.
