R&D Center
R&D Center |
Our R&D Center was established in September 2008 by building a new research facility in the site of the Head Office/Fukushima Works.
The center is mainly tackling research into energy device parts, electronic device parts and other areas that promise strong demand in the future. By stressing next-generation product development at this state-of-the-art R&D facility, Toshiba Shomei Precision wishes to join hands with our customers in value creation while meeting every customer need that may arise. |
