Currently, around the world efforts are being made to complete the fiber optic network. Accompanying this development, there has been a surge in demand for fiber-optic related products made
from cobalt materials offering low thermal expansion. In particular, the complex-shaped packages have produced a high demand for low-cost, metal-powder injection molded products over
conventional machine-assembled items. Our products have been created drawing on the Company's nearly 10-year track record with MIM technology. The MIM process, as shown below in the flowchart appearing in Figure 2, is a manufacturing process for mass-producing complicated three-dimensional objects in near-net shapes.

1. Molds and Dimensional Precision Compared with conventional machining products, our products are low-cost, and, as Figure 1 shows, enable the production of complicated three-dimensional forms of near-net shaped sintered bodies. Furthermore, the dimensional precision is 0.5%. 2. Special Features (1) Low Thermal Expansion With almost the same thermal expansion coefficient as molten manufacturing materials, it is ideal as an adhesive (See Chart 1.).
