Ultra-Precision Machining for 0.002mm Tolerance and Quality Control
In mold manufacturing for electronic components and connectors, parts such as insert pins require extremely high precision in the range of ±0.002mm (2 microns). Even minor variations can lead to molding defects and shortened mold life, making micro-shape accuracy essential.
We utilize 5-axis machining centers, profile grinders, and ultra-precision wire-cut EDM to consistently achieve 2-micron tolerances. Our Japanese staff stationed at our Chinese subsidiary performs incoming inspections and strict quality assurance before delivery to the Thai market.
Stable procurement of high-precision parts improves mold assembly accuracy, reducing the risk of flashes and dimensional defects during the molding process.
20% Cost Reduction and 14-Day Delivery via China Network
Procuring precision mold parts in Thailand or Japan often involves high costs and lead times exceeding one month. This can become a significant bottleneck in production planning, especially for mass production replacements or urgent mold repairs.
With a network of over 100 partner factories in China, we manage quality assurance through our own local entity in China before exporting to Thailand. This allows us to maintain Japanese Standards while achieving approximately 20% cost reduction compared to procurement in Thailand. Delivery to Thailand can be completed within 14 to 19 days.
Securing a cost-effective procurement route even with shipping costs allows for reduced mold maintenance costs and flexibility in handling design changes or emergency repairs.
Support for Special Materials: Carbide, Titanium, and Hardened Steel
Suppliers capable of processing high-hardness heat-treated materials (Hardened Steel) such as SKD11, STAVAX, or wear-resistant materials like Carbide and Titanium are limited in Thailand. Due to material availability and machining difficulty, many companies are forced to order from Japan, incurring heavy shipping and customs costs.
We leverage our network in China, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan to handle precision machining for special materials including Carbide, Titanium, DC53, and HPM38. In addition to machining, we offer one-stop services for surface treatments such as PVD or DLC.
By ordering advanced material parts through a one-stop service, you can eliminate the need for return shipping to Japan, reducing logistics costs and management overhead.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Can we consult even if drawings are not yet finalized?
Yes. We can work from simple sketches. Our team will coordinate and relay information to our China base to create official drawings and propose the most suitable specifications.
Q. How do you inspect 2-micron tolerances?
We implement a quality assurance system at our Chinese subsidiary using CMMs and projectors to perform incoming inspections directly from the manufacturing factories. We only deliver products that meet Japanese standards for quality.
Q. Is there a cost benefit for single-unit custom orders?
Yes. Our China network specializes in high-mix, low-volume production. Even for a single unit, we can manage production costs and shipping to provide a competitive price compared to manufacturing in Thailand or Japan.
Q. Do you provide after-sales support in Thailand?
For repairs after delivery, it is handled on a case-by-case basis. Since these are special parts, we usually recommend returning them to the original manufacturing factory to ensure the best accuracy and quality.
