about Yamaha company

Introducing this company From Four Vantage Points.

Under the banner of "A Global Electronic Engine Parts Maker", our aim is to provide high-quality products through a production system that smoothly integrates all of our processes. The following presents an overview of this company from four different vantage points: research and development, production technology, global networks and products.

Research and development

Technology that blends electronics, magnetics,mechanics and production technology providesthe solutions to next-generation needs.

Our technology brings something totally new to the electronic engine parts used in motorcycles, marine engines and other products. We provides magnetics-centered technology and an environment in which state-of-the-art electronics, magnetics, mechanics and production technology are blended and launched on the market in the form of more sophisticated meter displays, theft-prevention devices and other products. That environment, together with a highly consistent production system, provides the foundation that unifies the functions, quality, and costs of all of our products

system supplier

As a component maker that can work together with customers on product development, we have amassed substantial technology and assembled a full complement of testing and production equipment. We havn't stopped there, though; we continue to gain recognition as a maker of electronic components capable of providing customers, as a system supplier, with proposals and solutions tailored to whatever they may need.

our technology

The four facets making up our technology-electronics, magnetics, mechanics and production technology- are blended appropriately to meet customer needs, facilitating the process of bringing new concepts to the product stage

Advance production technology

An environmentally-friendly and highly efficient production system creates optimum harmonization between people and production equipment.

Designed to accommodate not only mass production but small-lot, multi-batch production as well, our systems handle a diverse range of production configurations. From winding, machine tooling, resin molding and critical-component assembly processes all the way to the inspection process, we constantly take on the challenge of new construction methods and equipment development that drive both high efficiency and an approach that is people- and environment-friendly. Processes include such diverse operations as winding of extra-fine cables with an outer diameter of 40 to precision stamping of laminated cores using high-speed 80-ton presses.

Equipment production engineering

Setting windings in place

We create programming to accommodate all kinds of winding machines.

Flow analysis

Simulation of forming state when resin is flowing.

Principal Equipment and Lines

Coil-integrated molding line

Coils are assembled and inspected in a one-piece-flow configuration on this line.

Coil assembly line

This automated assembly line, in operation around the clock, accommodates wire diameters ranging from 40 to 2.1 mm.

Global network

Committed to ongoing studies in our quest to be trusted and appreciated worldwide.

Our goal as a global maker of electronic parts is of course to create products that customers worldwide can have confidence in, but our overseas subsidiaries also strive constantly to be appreciated and liked by the people in the countries in which they reside. We're committed to ongoing studying and learning in order to attain that goal.

product

Our products: Active on land, in the water, in the air.

We put our innovative product development and engineering prowess and our highly creative production technology prowess to work to come up with a steady succession of electronic engine parts and other products. You'll find our products all over the world, in a diverse range of products maneuvering on land, in the water and in the air that includes motorcycles, outboard motors and helicopters, among many more.

Electronic engine parts

We develop and manufacture critical parts such as magnetos and igniter units necessary in motorcycle engines and outboard motor engines, to name just a few.
