R&D DIVISION
Tough R&D conditions in agricultural machinery required breaking traditional rules
Always keeping up with changes in the automotive industry, Shin Nippon Wheel Industries has sent a continual stream of superior products to the world’s markets based on mostly unique in-house technology. Our company never stops making products that continually raise industry quality standards. Some typical examples of outpacing competitors in developing innovative products are wet disk brakes and wet clutches of all types including wet spin clutches, aluminum wheels for motorcycles and cars, and motorcycle hubs, etc. You might say that what created these products is an integration of superb R&D power, the latest in manufacturing facilities, and a meticulous quality control organization.
However, where we really stand out is our ability to deliver these products as complete functional components rather than merely single parts. This task involves a complete, cohesive system from development, design and testing, to machining, painting, and assembly. What deserves special note is that most of the production machinery was developed by us in-house in a never-ending pursuit of precision in product quality.
As a leader in industry, our company will from here onwards continue developing products that will form the next generation in global standards.
TRIED & TESTED PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT STRENGTH FLEXES ITS MUSCLES IN THE MOTORCYCLE INDUSTRY
We are now applying lessons learned in the agricultural machinery field to brakes in all terrain vehicles (ATV). The ATV was a vehicle designed from the start to conquer harsh road conditions. Creating a vehicle with ideal performance requires that it be built tough enough to clear all conditions posed by a harsh environment. The R&D power possessed by our company is the perfect tool for meeting that kind of need.
Our R&D section also includes sales and customer-related functions.
This allows our engineers to steer development work to directly respond
to customer needs, and gives us the high degree of flexibility
needed to respond to a market environment that demands fast action. The
in-house product development system here at our company is also growing
in size and sophistication. Here, knowledge accumulated by each engineer
is passed along to other employees to build up a system even more capable
of contributing to a satisfied customer.
