Plastic injection molding machines

Plastic injection molding machines are used to pour melted plastic into molds. Of the two system types, hydraulic and electromotive, the latter enables greater molding precision. SHI specializes in the precision, high-cycle molding required for manufacturing optical discs and connectors and has the top share in Japan for these devices.

Cyclotrons

A cyclotron is an accelerator for particles that it ionizes using magnetic force. SHI is the only manufacturer of these devices in Japan and has the top share of the domestic market for cyclotrons for positron emission tomography (PET) applications, which are highly effective in discovering and pinpointing cancer cells.

Ion-implantation devices

To create the transistors and other components that comprise semiconductors, the necessary type/ volume of elements required for such components must be added to a flat silicon single-crystal substrate known as a wafer. Ion-implantation devices electrically ionize the elements and accelerate the resulting ions at high voltage for high-precision injection into the wafer.

Precision positioning stages

Precision positioning stages set the vertical and horizontal positioning of substrates, wafers and other components in precision processing. Because two axes are involved, they are also called XY stages. These products are used for manufacturing and inspection processes for liquid crystal panels and semiconductor wafers. SHI’s high-precision positioning stages are one of its particular strengths.

Circulating fluidized-bed (CFB) boiler

Employing jets of air blown from below to evenly mix fuel particles at a high temperature, this CFB boiler is an efficient combustor suitable for use with a wide variety of fuels. The CFB boiler can even burn such renewable energy fuels as low-grade coal and biomass-based fuels.

Vertical aerator systems

Used in water treatment processes, these systems direct air to polluted water, helping bacteria to break down substances more efficiently. The operation of SHI vertical aerator systems can be optimized for the volume of water being treated, and SHI boasts the top share of these products in Japan.

Superfine-bubble membrane tube diffusers

Superfine-bubble membrane tube diffusers are used for aeration systems at sewage treatment facilities. The use of a high-quality silicon rubber membrane for the diffuser tubes contributes to the high performance and durability of the systems.

Coke drums

This equipment is used in oil refining to extract high-value-added light oil from heavy oil that is subjected to heat cracking after refining. SHI has the world’s leading share in coke drums.

Aframax tankers, Suezmax tankers

Aframax tankers are midsized oil tankers with deadweight freight capacity in the 80,000 to 120,000MTDW class; 150,000MTDW class tankers are called Suezmax tankers.

Continuous ship unloaders

Continuous ship unloaders are large harbor-installed hoists used for the continuous unloading of iron ore and other bulk raw materials from cargo vessels at dock. SHI has the top share of this market in Japan.

Goliath crane

This is a large portal-type crane installed mainly in shipyards. Our Goliath crane has a maximum lifting capacity of 1,200 tons and helps raise the efficiency of shipbuilding operations. SHI has the top share of the domestic market.

Jib cranes

These are large cranes installed at harbors and shipyards and travel on rails. SHI has the top share of the domestic market.

Transfer cranes

Self-propelled cranes used to transport containers at ports and other sites; electricity to power the motor during hoisting and lowering is supplied by a generator incorporated into the crane.

Asphalt pavers

Self-propelled machines used to spread asphalt when paving roads; SHI is the market leader in asphalt pavers in Japan.

Crawler cranes

This is a self-propelled crane for construction sites. It travels on crawler tracks.
