Casting and Metal Machining (CMR)
Our history in manufacturing that exceeds 100 years is not limited only to engines for vessels.
With our strong desire to spread the use of various technology and equipment and make contributions to manufacturing in Japan, we are continuing to carry out activities that provide customers with our technology and skill in the form of products.

What does
CMR stand for?It represents the three pillars of our technology: Casting, Machinery, and Repair.
Technology TECHNOLOGY
Masterful skill
Spring-neck finishing
Finishes produced by using spring-necked turning tools are part of Hanshin's unique identity. Roundness achieved through machining at low revolution speeds is comparable to that of grinding, and is capable of approaches with a depth not possible for grinding machines. Processes that reach the ultimate level of performance while confirming chip thicknesses of 0.01 mm or less are true examples of masterful craftsmanship.
- Existing products that have been damaged can also be repaired.
Eccentric shaft machining
In this type of machining, the workpiece is fixed in place and the machine itself turns. This machine has a structure which is the opposite of conventional lathes, making it an essential tool for machining large crankshafts. Its simple and unique configuration has a wide variety of applications, and can be used in eccentric shaft machining for industrial machinery including press machines and gas compressors. Including a spring-neck finish can achieve precision which is equivalent to or higher than that of grinding machines.
Casting
Technology in which iron at a temperature exceeding 1,300℃ is poured into a mold and formed into shapes is an ancient process that has been in continued use since prehistoric times. Even today, it holds a place as the foundation of manufacturing, and is continuing to evolve. In addition to products for vessels, Hanshin supplies products for machine tools, machine jigs, and other applications. We are also highly proficient in the integrated production of tube shapes (up to 5 m). Furthermore, we have begun the use of 3D modeling technology and reverse engineering, as we expand the fields of our activity.
Advancement
3D digital technology
We have incorporated 3D machining and 3D inspection technology into our production lines, and made extensive improvements. Cast product inspections which use 3D scanners can discover shape defects which could not be perceived visually in the past, and can assist in the elimination of marking work. We will continue to accumulate technology such as this to support operations for manufacturing.
