Co-creation with companies, universities and other R&D


Facilities for contract experiments

In order for Showa Shinku to grow, we believe it is necessary to create new value by conducting business in cooperation with customers, R&D institutions such as universities, and various other stakeholders.
Showa Shinku has R&D equipment that can quickly respond to customer requests for sample film deposition and verification experiments for performance evaluation. We also hold technical exchange meetings with customers, conduct joint development, and also conduct joint research on elemental technologies with university laboratories. We are also working toward spreading information about the manufacturing sites through events such as facility tours for students.

Space development

We can no longer live an affluent and convenient life without space. Our lives are closely related with the space, such as GPS systems for smartphones and car navigation systems, weather forecasts, and real-time broadcasting of overseas sports events and entertainment via satellite broadcasting.
In order to advance space development, it is necessary to reproduce the environment similar to the space on Earth. The vacuum equipment manufactured by Showa Shinku can reproduce the environment desired by the customer in the equipment.
