Are the dies manufactured in your company?
From the design of the die to its manufacture, it is entirely an in-house process.
Our die adopts the nesting method (a method in which a mold is partitioned into units), which means that the worn-out parts can be replaced as necessary. Therefore, we specialise in molds with a longer shelf life as compared to those of other companies.
How can your company offer a shorter delivery time than other companies?
Since our company carries out all the activities in-house, from design and manufacturing of the die to tumbling washing after stamping, plating, inspection and delivery (including export arrangement), there is no dealing with external agencies.
Therefore, our customers receive the product in a shorter delivery span.
What are the minimum and maximum sizes of products your company can handle?
We can process small products around 1mm, and large products around 40-50mm. However, on a case-by-case basis, we can manage sizes greater than this, so please contact us if you have special size needs.
How much precision will you guarantee for the final product?
At present, we process several million units per month in mass production. Many of these are guaranteed to be refined to within + 0.005mm. . We can deal with orders requiring micron precision
What is the maximum material thickness that your company can handle?
Generally, from 0.05 up to 2.0mm, with a maximum thickness of approximately 4.5mm.
Can the production be carried out with non-magnetic material?
We process SPC/Cu/Ni alloys/SUS/Al/various kinds of metal cladding materials. We would need to discuss your needs for the non-magnetic materials.
What is the typical delivery period for die manufacturing?
Generally, it takes about two months to make a die; however, we can discuss shorter delivery periods for prototypes.
Where is the factory located? Can we tour the factory?
The headquarters factory in Saitama is concerned with development and trial production, and the Fukushima Product Center handles mass production. We are happy to arrange a factory tour at any time, but it is on appointment basis. Please feel free to contact us.
What is the minimum lot size you will accept?
As a rule, we have minimum lot sizes of 1,000 units/ lot, but we will be happy to discuss other lot sizes upon consultation.
What is the maximum lot size you can handle?
At present, we are producing several million units per month for large orders. If you have larger needs, kindly contact us and we tailor it to meet your needs.
Do you undertake prototyping?
Yes. As a rule, prototyping involves manufacturing of a die prototype. Economical prototyping is also possible if the dies we have in our company can be used. Kindly contact us for further discussions.
Is it possible to make a small product with a 1mm angle?
Yes.
What are the benefits of the continuous coining process?
It is a process exclusive to our company in which complex 3-dimentional molding and tunnel processing are implemented in a single die. We can guarantee high precision even in mass production and can provide it at low cost.
Is plating possible?
We have electrolytic/non-electrolytic nickel lines. We maintain quality and high reliability through our advanced machine technology of the stamping and chemical elements technology for the plating.
What are the special features of Gotos Precision Engineering?
Our special features are (a) the exclusive continuous coining technology that Gotos has developed over a period of 48 years, and (b) the in-house integrated molding system which includes the design and manufacture from the die to the plating. By establishing this production system, we are able to maintain the highest standards of quality in both the engineering field (die manufacturing and stamping) and the chemical field (tumbling washing and plating), and to offer a product with consistent reliability.
