Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is well known for producing small metal parts with complex geometries and high precision.
However, it is often associated with high tooling costs and is commonly viewed as suitable only for mass production, making prototyping difficult.
【Our "Trial MIM Tooling" changes that ! 】
We offer a cost-effective solution specifically designed for prototyping and small-lot production.
To meet different project needs, we provide three tooling plans with clear cost and volume ranges.
―What Is ”Trial MIM Tooling”?
A plan designed for prototyping and very low-volume production runs
・MIM production available for limited quantities.
・Ideal for evaluation, testing, and initial product development.
Tooling cost : from JPY 190,000
Quantity : up to 50 parts
【Plans for Repeat Orders and Higher Volumes】
We also offer tooling options optimized for repeat production as your required volume increases.
”Short-Run Tooling” — for Low-to-medium volume Production
Tooling cost : from JPY 490,000
Quantity : up to 10,000 parts
”Production Tooling” — for Large-Volume Production
Tooling cost : from JPY 980,000
Quantity : up to 100,000 parts
Conditions apply. Please contact us for details.
From prototyping to mass production, We supply the metal parts you need, when you need them.
Initial consultation is welcome — We work closely with you to meet your production requirements.
For more information, please contact us via our website.
We look forward to hearing from you.
【What Is MIM (Metal Injection Molding)?】
Also known as metal powder injection molding, MIM is a manufacturing process in which fine metal powders are injection-molded and sintered.
It excels at producing very small metal components with high precision, complex geometries, and three-dimensional shapes that are difficult to machine.
We are the only company in Japan that develops MIM feedstock materials in-house for use in this process.
【Five Key Advantages of Our MIM Technology】
✅Capable of fine, complex geometries with minimum wall thicknesses from 0.1 mm, including sharp edges
✅Threaded features and ultra-fine pins molded without secondary machining
✅Proven track record in medical, dental, food-processing, and aerospace-related components
✅Integrated in-house production, from tooling fabrication to surface treatments such as plating
✅ISO 9001 certified at both domestic and overseas facilities, ensuring reliable quality control
