About Us - Micro MIM USA Inc.

A message from our CEO

Our most important motto is “bring joy to many people”.

Hideaki Tanaka

CEO Micro MIM USA Inc.

Our original company, Taisei Kogyo Co., Ltd. has created the μ-MIM® technology specialized in the manufacturing of microcomponents and continues to offer components that meet the increased demands of our time.

As a result, our manufacturing technology has become well-known worldwide and has contributed to society by "bringing joy to many people." Micro MIM USA Inc. was established with the aim of accelerating this trend and realizing this motto.

In recent years, the manufacturing environment has changed a lot, and the speed of change cannot be compared with the past. Therefore, we will not only refine our technology, but also think about the "now" with an eye to the future.

That's why we will actively participate in new initiatives such as metal 3D printing and will address a number of new challenges in the future.

Such as reducing patient exposure to surgery by supporting the development of new surgical instruments with our components, addressing the problem of population growth by manufacturing parts that support space travel development, and protecting our environment by making more efficient use of renewable energy with our products.

We will continue to be "those who take on new challenges" to solve problems and "bring joy to many" in a world full of change.
