| Unlike the die manufacturers who handle die production only, Nichidai gets involved already from the stage of die designing and commits itself to Net-Shape, the method for forming parts using the minimum amount of materials and energy. The Company just receives a design of parts from the customer and uses CAE to conduct 2D and 3D simulations of the process from the materials to parts forming. It gets the optimum parts forging process from these simulations and provides a total engineering service for the process from the production of precision dies to the mass production of precision forged parts. |

| Nichidai's total engineering service is supported by its technical development capabilities. The Company's over 30 technical development workers are not only doing in-house development tasks but also working on contract and cooperative development work with its customers. The Company owns presses for experimental use, too, and reinforces its equipment for technical development capabilities. |

| About 80% of Nichidai's dies are used for the production of automobiles. Instead of depending on a particular user, the Company's die products are delivered to many automakers and automotive parts manufactures at home and abroad. |

|
The precision forging section uses the precision forging technology developed over many years and mass-produces aluminum alloy forged scroll parts for air-conditioner compressors in the Company's integrated automatic production line. |
|
 |
At the request of its customers, Nichidai can handle the production of the parts requiring high forging technology for the customers.
In addition, this section is part of the total engineering activities in the Company's Net-Shape Business and contributes to the technical development of precision dies. |
