Nireco’s four businesses segments

Nireco conducts research in various technical fields such as electricity, fluids and optics. Our research is centered around control, measurement and inspection technologies. Currently, we are developing business in four segments: process control, web control, inspection systems and optics.

Control Equipment Business Steel and Nonferrous Metal Field

High-quality, high-performance steel sheets used for automobiles and electronic devices are manufactured under strict quality control. We manufacture and sell equipment that provides indispensable support for sheet quality and production efficiency.
