About YAMAZEN TAIWAN

Taiwan Yamazen was established in 1961 and has been in business for over 50 years. It received 100% investment from Yamazen Co., Ltd., a large Japanese machinery trading company.

Like its parent company, Taiwan Yamazen upholds the spirit of “pioneering and innovation” and is committed to introducing the most advanced machinery and technology from Japan.

In addition, Taiwan Yamazen provides customers with complete after-sales service, education and training, and technical guidance. It takes customer satisfaction as its mission and grows together with Taiwan’s processing industry.

Extrude Hone solutions for industry at TIMTOS.

Extrude Hone has developed its presence in Asia in three prominent locations: Misato in Japan, Shanghai in China, and Bangalore in India. We also rely on partners, like Yamazen, to cover this large area deeply.

Extrude Hone brings technologies that enable us to perform complex, if not impossible, manual tasks using machines, increasing productivity and addressing the labor shortage.

We have implemented automation capabilities within our technologies to increase productivity further.

Our processes, Thermal deburring (TEM), Electrochemical machining (ECM), Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM), and MICROFLOW, provide the industry with advanced finishing solutions. They encompass simple circular deburring, target-demanding deburring, automatic edge radiusing, polishing, and flow enhancement in large or microchannels.

But technology alone doesn’t solve everything… We also focused on the human factor, which is essential. We offer our customers on-demand training in engineering and production capabilities to improve their general knowledge of the technology or master a specific process.

We also stand beside our customers with local aftermarket support to ensure the highest equipment uptime.

As a unique capability, we also offer contract services. That’s a great way to discover our technologies by running feasibility or accessing the technology for small batches that would not justify investing.

Discover Extrude Hone’s automated finishing solutions.

Thermal deburring (TEM):

Thermal deburring is a reliable method for the fluidic industry. It removes burrs from manifolds, valves, and connectors, leaving them clean with no burrs or particles.

For the desired functionality of a manifold, it must not have any burr or loose particles left inside. Burr getting dislodged, carried away with the fluid, and getting caught in the wrong place is a potential safety hazard.

Thermal deburring (TEM) has been a proven solution for decades, instilling confidence in its effectiveness. Regardless of manifold design complexity, TEM is effective for various materials, from zinc, aluminum, and cast iron to steel and stainless steel.

This process is flexible and accessible, making it ideal for various applications, from large batches of small bulk parts to one-meter-long shafts, with multiple variations.

Discover how to vaporize quickly and automatically burrs using thermal deburring with a T-Series machine.

Electrochemical Machining:

We offer Electrochemical Machining (ECM) to achieve selective deburring at high productivity levels.

Our solutions have been field-proven in the automotive, aerospace, fluidics, medical, and energy industries. Deburring can be combined with a one-step shaping and polishing operation.

With ECM, you can achieve superior productivity by integrating it smoothly into a fully automated line.

For example, in medical land, for knee implant manufacturing, Extrude Hone offers a perfect electrochemical machining solution for finishing the intercondylar zone (the central section of the box) and the cam zone, which require strict dimensional tolerance and parallelism.

These benefits stem from ECM’s unique ability to machine complex shapes in hard materials with high precision and minimal stress on the workpiece: ECM’s efficiency compared to CNC milling remains high for difficult-to-machine materials.

ECM goes beyond the Static Method and comes with Dynamic ECM; a perfect illustration is the ECM rifling. In some situations, ECM Dynamic could also become ECM drilling in unthinkable areas.

Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM):

If you need smooth polishing, micro-deburring, or edge rounding, Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM) can meet your requirements.

AFM provides a surface enhancement of ten times compared to the incoming roughness. It is used across various industries, from Medical to Aerospace, from Energy to F1. 

AFM might be the answer to replacing manual polishing or polishing intricate AM channels in out-of-sight areas.

Extrude Hone’s outsourcing equipment and services are unique in the market.
