About Kyocera factory in China
Kyocera announced on June 30, 2015, that it has started construction of a new ultra-hard blade factory in China. The new plant is scheduled to open in January 2016.
China's auto industry has a growing demand for cutting tools. To meet this demand, Kyocera established Kyocera precision tools co., ltd. in January 2015 in a joint venture with ganzhou hai sheng tungsten & molybdenum co., LTD., a Chinese tungsten smelting enterprise.
The new factory covers an area of about 20,000 m2, with a total construction area of about 23,000 m2. It will become Kyocera's fourth machine tool production base in China after Dongguan, Zhuhai, and Shanghai. Kyocera will expand its sales in China by strengthening its production system.
In October 1995, the Kyocera machinery tools business department started to take root in Shillong town, Dongguan city and started to produce high-performance cutting tools by means of incoming materials processing. Relying on the high-tech material technology, exquisite manufacturing technology, and the globally unified quality assurance system. Kyocera cutting tools have rapidly expanded the overseas market, with a share of 25% in the Japanese cutting tools market, and in Japan has been a "hard alloy association award" and "customer trust award".
After 12 years of development, the tool business department of shilong workshop has become the largest production and business site of Kyocera tools. Products cover automobile, aircraft, ship, HDD parts and die processing based on the outer, inner, grooving, cutting, drill and milling processing. Since January 2006, we have started production as a joint venture and sold the machine tools in China through a domestic sales company ----- Kyocera (Tianjin) trading co., LTD.
