ABOUT Aerospace field

Supporting air safety with reliability and technology

Endo Manufacturing has obtained AS9100 (JIS Q 9100)/ISO 9001* certification, an international quality management standard for the aerospace industry. We are now expanding our business into the aerospace field by leveraging our advanced technical skills and quality assurance system developed through the manufacturing of medical device parts. We have established an integrated production system in which all processes are completed in-house, from material procurement to manufacturing process design, mold fabrication, forging, machining, polishing, and inspection. This allows us to provide consistent quality, stable product supply, and flexibility.
Our core forging technology allows us to reduce costs and shorten lead times. Recently, we have also been actively developing forging technologies that will lead to further cost reductions while meeting the high precision required for aircraft applications. Endo Manufacturing will continue contributing to the development of the aerospace industry through these technological innovations and more.

REASON Why choose Endo Manufacturing?

REASON 01.

Advanced technical skills
and quality assurance system

We utilize precision hot forging technology to provide high quality and competitively priced products.
We have obtained AS9100 (JIS Q 9100) certification, and have established a quality assurance system that suits the aerospace field. Our material evaluation facilities allow us to provide products made of materials of guaranteed safety.

REASON 02.

Stable supply system

We can procure materials from suppliers inside and outside Japan, allowing us to ensure a stable supply.
We have established an integrated Tier 2 system covering everything from material procurement to quality assurance, to ensure highly reliable supply

REASON 03.

Fast and flexible response

Our integrated in-house production system allows us to quickly meet diverse needs, including short delivery time and high-mix low-volume production.
We have built a flexible production network that also includes the use of outsourcing, and can respond flexibly in cooperation with our partners in cases where it would be difficult to handle large parts in-house.

REASON 04.

Management base
to support sustainable growth

Our solid financial foundation makes us a safe choice for orders placed in the aerospace field, where aggressive capital investment and long-term corporate continuity are required.
We respond to the needs of our customers as a long-term business partner by continuously renewing our facilities and maintaining our manufacturing system backed by our financial strength.

REASON 05.

Long-standing track record and trust

Since our founding more than 75 years ago, we have gained extensive experience and established a solid track record in metal processing (plastic forming, precision forging, machining, polishing, etc.). Our extensive expertise based on many years of development has won us a high level of trust from our customers.

PROCESS Manufacturing processes
for aircraft parts

Specification confirmation

We carefully confirm precision requirements and required specifications based on product drawings received from the customer.

Process design

We optimize quality, costs, and delivery time using our integrated design process that covers everything from product shape and material characteristics to processing methods, selection of jigs and equipment, and inspection processes.

Forging

We use near net-shape forging to form shapes very close to those of the final products. By delivering highly complete parts, we can reduce material costs caused by material loss as well as post-process work time, lowering costs, shortening lead time, and improving overall productivity.

Processing

We use molds and jigs designed and fabricated in-house to process complex shapes using three-axis and five-axis processing machines. This allows us to meet the high precision required of aircraft parts.

Polishing

Scratches are the root causes of destruction, and these defects cannot be tolerated in aircraft parts. Our Super Polish process results in extremely low surface roughness, ensuring safety and reliability.

Inspection and quality assurance

We conduct inspections, take records, and made decisions using systems and procedures based on AS9100 (JIS Q 9100)*, an international standard for aerospace quality management systems, including dimensional inspections and visual inspections using devices such as 3D measuring equipment, tensile strength tests, metallographic observations, and hydrogen analysis.
