Launched in 1945 from our textile machinery manufacturing business, our mechatronics business has supported a wide range of monozukuri (production engineering) in the manufacturing industry for over half a century, through the development and sale of welding and sheet-metal processing machinery, and specialized machines for manufacturing aircraft and automobiles. We are leveraging the expertise in equipment development gained in this business in order to develop a photovoltaic module manufacturing equipment business, as expectations turn to this field as a source of clean energy. From individual production machines to integrated modular manufacturing lines, we offer superior products with excellent production efficiency and reliability as well as high-quality technical services.
With rising global environmental awareness, countries around the world are advancing the introduction of solar power. The worldwide installed base of solar power generation is predicted to double from 2008 levels by the year 2012. Our mechatronics business is meeting this new era of growth by expanding globally, with a focus on East Asia. We are also leveraging the wealth of expertise we have accumulated as a leading producer of photovoltaic cell manufacturing equipment to further expand our photovoltaic cell business, and promoting a turnkey solution business including everything from manufacturing equipment, to offering materials and consulting on optimizing machining conditions.
