Advanced metal processing of seat frames
High-tensile steel, the material used for seat frames, is thin and has a rigidity that makes it difficult to deform.
Processing it requires sophisticated technology.
The only urethane formulation by a seat manufacturer
NHK Spring is the only seat manufacturer capable of developing and formulating its own urethane materials.
We can provide products that meet customers' requirements for comfort, durability, etc.
Improvement of ride comfort utilizing simulation
We utilize NHK Spring's analysis technology to quantify the subjective human sensation of "ride comfort" and improve performance.
This technology also allows us to conduct development more efficiently.
Metal bonding using NHK Spring's original technology
These parts, which are used in the semiconductor manufacturing process, entail joining of different types of metals.
The joining method called thermal spraying is commonly used, but this method has a disadvantage in that it is prone to distortions.
In contrast, NHK Spring's proprietary joining method called "brazing material" can join even complex shapes and achieve more stable quality without distortions.
Work automation by robots
Automated and manpower-saving inspections of seats for wrinkles and other defects through utilization of AI
We have continued to implement problem-solving activities using QC methods (QC circle activities) since 1965. We also implement such activities overseas.
