PR message
awamura Kikai Co., Ltd., founded in 1951, is a metal processing manufacturer with over 70 years of experience, primarily serving the automotive industry. We provide integrated support from prototyping to mass production, including press forming of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and CFRTP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic) molding.
Leveraging its expertise in metal processing, we also apply technologies to resin and fiber materials, enabling the production of lightweight, high-rigidity, and heat-resistant components for next-generation mobility and precision parts. It supports development from single-drawing prototypes to manufacturing process proposals for mass production.
