The company manufactures and sells machining fluids, industrial lubricants, and cleaning agents used in metalworking. Genuine machining fluids from machine manufacturers and products from major manufacturers are mass-produced and have difficulty meeting individual machining conditions. In contrast, the company specializes in small-lot needs and supplies products that maximize the necessary performance required for each customer's machining conditions. President Toshiyuki Ryu explains, "Trying to improve machinability can lead to increased rusting, skin irritation for workers, and deterioration of the working environment due to odors." It is difficult to create high-performance products that also contribute to improving the working environment, but the company has been working to solve this problem with the technology it has accumulated over 50 years.

"We add and subtract ingredients, and then add a secret ingredient to create a flavor that can't be measured by a formula," says President Ryu, comparing his company to a "chef." Products developed while having users "taste-test" them have high customer satisfaction. In recent years, the company has been strengthening its appeal to products that meet social demands with low environmental impact, such as the "Chemicut F-900" series, the first plant-derived oil to be put into practical use in Japan, and the water-soluble cutting fluid "Supercool," and has been increasing its presence. Furthermore, they have commercialized cutting fluids for deep hole drilling of difficult-to-machine materials such as Inconel and titanium, which achieve high cutting performance and extend tool life, and have received high praise.

Since 2014, President Ryu has introduced various testing machines, including extreme pressure testers, to investigate changes in behavior due to additives and to "visualize" the data. The combination of materials is the core technology of cutting fluids. This data will be the source of future competitiveness. Furthermore, he is also considering the smooth transfer of technology to future generations by enriching the data. Meanwhile, in 2015, a new energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence inspection device was introduced. This allows for checking for impurities from the sample stage, as well as component analysis of oil raw materials and diverse processing materials. By utilizing the inspection equipment, development costs will be reduced and speed will be increased, and precise material formulations will be achieved, enabling a response to higher-level customer needs.

The processing of difficult-to-machine materials and non-ferrous metals is on the rise, particularly in the aerospace sector. Environmental regulations are also becoming stricter, and the performance that users demand from cutting fluids is reaching even higher levels. The domestic aerospace industry is a promising market for the future, and President Ryu says, "We will approach the aerospace industry comprehensively, aiming to connect parts processing users with large machine tool manufacturers." He expresses confidence, saying, "If we develop good products that meet our customers' needs, we can build relationships where they will use our products for a long time."

Our company history

Established in 1966 as a trading company selling metalworking fluids from Hangsterfer, Inc. of the United States, we built a factory in the Tondabayashi Small and Medium Enterprise Industrial Park in Osaka Prefecture in 1983 and began manufacturing and selling our own products tailored to user needs. We develop oils that meet the needs of difficult-to-cut materials and environmental regulations through multi-product, small-lot production.

We manufacture and sell metalworking fluids in small batches, tailored to specific processing conditions to maximize the performance of your machinery and tools.
