After graduating from high school attached to Nippon Institute of Technology (now Komaba High School attached to Nippon Institute of Technology), he joined the company and learned mold technology under his predecessor. He was one of the first to introduce 3D CAD and machining centers, and improved the accuracy of complex molds. He also acquired deep drawing and plate forging technologies that had not been available in the company until then, and worked on sales activities based on VE proposals, such as converting machined parts to stamping and two parts to one part, establishing a system from prototype development to mass production. In recent years, the company has been challenging the possibilities of press working, for example, by teaming up with designers to start product development.
