After World War II, the company turned its sophis-ticated technologies and considerable experience to meeting peacetime needs. Continuing to produce high-quality steel, it developed machinery making use of this steel and endeavored to open up new business fields. In addition to heavy and chemical industries such as electric power, steel, shipbuilding, and petro-chemicals, the company broadened into areas from automobiles to electrical machinery and information equipment, earning a worldwide reputation as an inte-grated producer of steel materials and machinery.Today, having grown into a comprehensive materials

provider and manufacturer of mechatronics products, JSW is meeting society’s needs at the forefront. In the steel and energy products business, we are serving the needs of the energy industry in areas such as elec-trical power generation, oil refi ning, natural gas, and wind power generation. In the industrial machinery products business, we supply equipment for manufac-turing and processing plastic materials, along with a diverse range of products in areas from information technology to defense.

In 1907, the Japanese government launched a joint venture for the purpose of domestic weapons production in Muroran, Hokkaido — later to become a major steel manufacturing center—

consisting of two British firms (W.G. Armstrong and Vickers) and one Japanese company. That was the birth of the Japan Steel Works, Ltd. (JSW).

gained accreditation by the American Society of Me-

chanical Engineers (ASME) certifying that our nuclear

reactor pressure vessels and materials, as well as our

general pressure vessels and boilers, meet the high-

est quality standards of that organization, recognized

all over the world. We were awarded the prestigious

Deming Application Prize for quality control in 1983.

Then in 1994 we earned ISO 9001 and 9002 certifi ca-

tion for international quality management (combined

as ISO 9001 in 2002), and in 1998 we received ISO

14001 environmental management systems certifi ca-

tion, among other examples of the worldwide recog-

nition our company has achieved for the excellence of

Muroran Research Laboratory was established in 1907 with the founding of JSW. From fundamental to applied studies, the laboratory has broadened its research fi elds on materials for key industries, such as steelmaking, thermal/nuclear power generation, oil refi ning and natural gas transport. In recent years, strong research efforts are being devoted to studies on manufacturing processes for heat resistance, corrosion resistane, abrasion resistance and hydrogen resistance and, as well as to searching for applied products to new industrial fi elds such as application system using hydrogen storage alloys, functional materials for optical and electronic devices.

Muroran Plant

Yokohama Plant

Hiroshima Plant

The excimer laser annealing system, a core product of Yokohama Plant, is used for the manufacture of advanced displays, and required to have manufacturing apparatus incorporating advanced technology suitable for the evolution of the display. Furthermore even in industrial machinery mainly composed of blow molding machines, compliance with molded articles using advanced materials is required. To response to demands, we are working on technological development such as process, evaluation, structural analysis, control, and optics, and we are improving device performance and developing new products that meet the needs.

The Hiroshima Plant is developing various element technologies aimed at improving the performance and function of machinery products such as extruders and injection molding machines in plastics and polymer alloy fi elds.Especially, by utilizing a new analytical technique such as MPS (Moving Particle Semi-implicit method), we will promote the development of new products quickly by reproducing the plastic melting plasticization phenomenon in the extruder which could not be predicted so far.In addition, we have developed new materials which possess resistance such as abrasion and corrosion for the machinery products to be used to satisfy our customers over a long period of time.

Working to Realize Today’s Dreams with Tomorrow's Technology.

Aiming to become a global leader in monozukuri,

we devote strong efforts to the development of new

products, creating new businessese and manufacturing

methods based on our own technologies, while at

the same time promoting business collaborations

and joint development projects on multiple fronts

so that technologies can be supplemented and

commercialized at an early date.

Each division of JSW is actively working to enhance the

functions, performance, and reliability of our existing

core products, developing and perfecting products in

new fi elds meeting the needs of this age.

New Business Promotion Headquaters are promoting

creation of new businesses not belonging to any other

division, new product development and business

transfers.

As main targets of commercialization efforts, we

are focusing aircraft and automotive field, energy

and environment and electronics, information and

communications based on customer needs with

emphasis.

1. Steel Pressure Vessel of Hydrogen Storage for Hydrogen StationA hydrogen refueling station is a facility for compressing and storing hydrogen gas, which is the fuel for FCV (Fuel Cell Vehicles) up until a high pressure state of 70MPa and filling it into FCV. It is equivalent to a gas station for general vehicles. Based on the fi ndings of hydrogen embrittlement and high-pressure

vessel manufacturing experience that we have cultivated so far, we have commercialized pressure vessel of hydrogen with design pressure 99MPa using high strength low alloy steel.

3. Laser Application SystemBased on the accumulated technology by excimer laser annealing system, we are developing laser application system suitable for various fi elds. The laser can irradiate a specifi c wavelength in a very short time, and it also has excellent condensing characteristics, so that only the surface in the narrow region can be heat treated. Devices that make use of these characteristics are used in the manufacturing process of semiconductors and displays. Heat distribution of materials of laser irradiation for selection of laser and irradiation method, analysis of vibration, head of sound, fl uid for structural design of equipment are carried out.

2. Long Forging for Offshore StructureOcean development of petroleum and natural gas is heading towards deep water in recent years, and when a failure accident of equipment occurs in the ocean, because it causes enormous marine environmental pollution, for the members used in marine development equipment, strength and low temperature toughness is required at a high level. It is one of the products that achieves homogene-ous material properties is difficult because it is long and thick by part. Such manufacturing is one of the diffi cult products. We have found the optimum chemical composi-tion and heat treatment conditions of large forged steel products that are difficult to manufacture and are leading to the manufacture of reliable products. (Photo shows the quenching heat treat-ment situation of a long rolling forged steel mem-ber of 18m in role called taper stress joint)

4. Analysis TechnologyIn developing and manufacturing resin polymer processing equipments, it is important to obtain desired quality by plasticizing and kneading according to the requirements. For that reason, we are focusing not only on improving the reliability of mechanical products through structural and mechanistic analysis, but also on kneading evaluation for quality prediction of compounded polymer through molten polymer fl ow analysis. The above fi gure shows the prediction results of unfi lled transport and fully-filled kneading of two kinds (blue, yellow) of molten polymers in the twin screw extruder by particle method analysis.By applying the particle method, it is possible to predict the devolatilization performance of molten polymer containing solvent etc. in detail, so we aim to improve the effi ciency of the devolatilization process for purifying the producing resin material which contain the high concentration solvents.
