Research and Development ChugaiRo's Technology
Chugai Ro's Three Strengths
Employees who create new value
CHUGAI RO CO., LTD. has developed over the years.
Heat treatment technology, design technology, and state-of-the-art technology.
Based on the three fundamental technologies, we are developing energy-saving and
We have been providing products adapted to social needs such as environmental protection.

Thermal Technology Thermal Technology
We provide the thermal technology required by our customers by combining various processes such as thermal control with production equipment that can freely shape the processing environment, including high temperature, high pressure, vacuum, and atmosphere.

Total Engineering Total Engineering
We customize production equipment to meet the customer's environment and provide technology that is friendly to both the customer and the earth through designs that not only satisfy functionality as a production system, but also consider operability and energy conservation.

Advanced Technology State-of-the-art technology
In IT, electronics, and other facilities requiring clean environments and high-precision controllability, we develop new and unique technologies by introducing state-of-the-art technologies to meet the diversifying needs of our customers.
core technology
Supported by fundamental technologies developed over many years
By deepening and integrating original core technologies,
We provide society with innovative technologies that create a prosperous future for people and the Earth.

-
Combustion
Technology that combines various solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels, oxygen, and ignition sources to freely form flames and create optimal temperature ranges and atmospheres.
-
Electric Heat
Technology to create optimal temperature ranges and atmospheres by selecting heater materials and devising shapes and layouts.
-
Heating and Cooling
Technology to manipulate heat by making full use of radiation heat transfer, convection heat transfer, and heat conduction to change the temperature of an object at will.
-
Atmosphere Control
Technology to control the atmosphere to suit the material processing process, using air, exhaust gas, or special gases (hydrogen, carburizing gas, etc.)
-
Customize
Technology to propose and design equipment to meet customer requirements, including scale-up for mass production, etc.

Thermal Technology Creation Center
Evolved into an innovation center by integrating research and development functions.
Thermal Technology Leading the World to a New Dimension
The role of thermal technology is becoming increasingly important in the development of CO₂ emission-free combustion technology to achieve carbon neutrality, the development of heat treatment equipment for EVs, secondary batteries, and semiconductor materials, and the innovation of existing thermal technology to meet customers' new product development and production needs. In order to maximize the potential of thermal technology, our core technology, and meet these needs, Chugai Furnace Manufacturing will integrate its various research and development functions into the Sakai Works in November 2023. We will accelerate innovation through co-creation with members and partners inside and outside of Japan, and contribute to the creation of a sustainable society.

Test equipment is also available for customers who are in talks to install equipment,
It is useful for R&D testing of treatment processes, equipment specifications, and performance evaluation.
