CORPORATE PROFILE(英語版)
23/40

22UACJ’s forging plants are equipped with massive presses with forming loads of 15,000 tons as well as other facilities for manufacturing large-scale forged products, such as huge ring-shaped components for airplanes and rockets, and frame components for aircraft wings and fuselages. Having acquired certification for product quality under the National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program (Nadcap), the plants meet the strict quality requirements of the aerospace industry. As automakers produce smaller engines that consume less fuel in response to European exhaust gas emission regulations, demand for turbo chargers is growing in the automobile market. UACJ manufactures the compressor wheels that are fitted in these turbo chargers using two methods, and with a production volume of 10 million units annually, it has secured a leading global market share. UACJ applies casting technologies developed in its casting method to enable high strength and precise measurements. Its machining method is then applied to the compressor wheels using the Group’s five-axis machining center, a machine which handles all processing from alloy development to integrated production.CLOSEUPWorking together with R&D divisions to supply high-performance productsSince compressor wheels are mainly used in automobiles and a broad range of vehicles, they require high strength and heat resistance. To supply such high-performance compressor wheels, UACJ’s casting and forging business works together with R&D divisions to develop alloys of consistent quality.
