どんな業界？ - 株式会社カワタKeep a position of rough stone with almost 2 strong oligopoly
The industry of plastic molding related equipment (excluding molding machine body and product automatic take-out device) that Kawata is the main battlefield
Almost 6 to 70% is accounted for by Kawata of the comprehensive equipment manufacturer and another company (unlisted)
The rest is distributed among dozens of specialists of dozens of companies. It is a good situation to say that the industry is almost "two stronger oligopoly system".
Moreover, we can only propose the total processing system for plastics processing equipment with our company and its competitors.
Under such circumstances, there are actual conditions of machining sites that do not allow new entrants easily.

Kawata is familiar with the manufacturing site!
While the automation of powder and granular material processing plants such as plastics is advancing, its manufacturing know-how is made up of fine adjustment of machinery and equipment based on advanced craftsmanship.
For example, Kawata's specialty " Dryer For example, it is not merely to dry the pellets, depending on the nature of the final product, it is necessary to add an appropriate heat (40 ° C to 160 ° C) to remove unnecessary moisture, physical properties of the pellet It is necessary to prepare various functions such as using both heat and decompression together so as not to change the temperature (generally becoming brittle).
Such exquisite "salt plum" is not necessarily adjustable only with digital technology, but unless you leave it to a partner who is familiar with product manufacturing process to every corner and has built up manufacturing know-how together, it will cause a problem somewhere in the production cycle It is very likely to happen.
In such a manufacturing site, only businesses who are absolutely trusted in their quality and know-how can not be accepted as partners, and there is limited scope for new entrants with a simple price advantage to enter easily.
Kawata blends into the manufacturing site and supports quality improvement and efficiency of the manufacturing process, and the presence of Kawata stands out in the field of optical films, optical sheets and batteries, which can be said to be the foundation of state-of-the-art information technology in particular.
