Manufacturing

Hirata offers completely integrated in-house manufacturing. We provide anything from a single mechanical part to a total system including production start-up, ensuring high level quality and quick manufacturing.

When it comes to custom-made production systems, it is very important to have strong manufacturing capabilities which guarantees product reliability and lower costs with shorter delivery time. It is our policy to have our people well informed of customers' day-to-day production issues and opportunities. Also, our designers are knowledgeable about our own manufacturing. That is exactly why we have complete and integrated manufacturing ranging from design to assembly, testing, and implementation within the company. Furthermore, we know that technologies progress constantly, so we continue to challenge new ideas and develop our people in order to improve our system.

Manufacturing

We have accumulated experiences and advanced equipment for parts fabrication, sub-assembly and testing, and complete run-off. You can truly rely on us!

In Japan, Hirata has six major manufacturing plants fully equipped with 3D-CAD/CAE/CAM, advanced machining center, and large assembly halls to facilitate successful simulation runs for customers. It is not just our advanced equipment, but also our people that make your projects smooth and trouble-free. Hirata's engineers know what challenges you face in production and are ready to work with you. Engineers in various sections communicate quickly and effectively to develop and execute a project.

Control engineering and production systems expertise

On top of our reliable control systems engineering, we also develop computer software for systems control, monitoring, data acquisition, logistics control, etc. Our engineers have gone through numerous projects and have faced and overcome many issues.
