medical device

We have established an integrated system covering everything from CAD/CAM-based 3D modeling to mold and jig fabrication, forging, machining, polishing, and inspection. We can also handle new product launches and prototype fabrication with short delivery times, as well as small-batch high-mix production. We can respond quickly to sudden changes in demand, such as quickly handling new medical devices.

We use net-shape forging by applying our extensive track record and technology developed in the golf field. We reduce material costs and post-processes, and improve cost efficiency, by designing and fabricating high-precision molds, setting optimal forging conditions, and designing advanced processes to forge parts to a state close to that of the final product shape. This has also helped to optimize QCD.

ISO 13485* certification, an international standard for quality management systems specifically for medical devices. Our quality control system, compliant with international standards, ensures high safety. We have built a solid track record of trust from medical device manufacturers in many countries throughout the global market.

In order to improve productivity and ensure consistent quality, we actively introduce the latest automation and labor-saving technologies, such as robot-based polishing. Meanwhile, manual polishing is performed by skilled workers for processes that require fine sensitivity and decision-making. We utilize the skills of our workers, which cannot be reproduced by machines, to realize consistent product manufacturing of high quality. It is this combination of automation and human skill that forms the strength supporting Endo Manufacturing’s production sites.

We are now focusing on acquiring new technologies, with an eye on the aging populations in Japan and throughout the Asia region. In addition to our existing forging manufacturing methods, we have acquired casting technology that makes use of the lost wax manufacturing method. While maintaining our commitment to high-quality ENDO products, we are now also able to handle products that cannot be made by forging. From technological surveys to prototyping and research, we continue to take on the challenge of developing new manufacturing methods for the next generation.
