Japan\u2019s BBS Kinmei Co., Ltd., based in rural Ishikawa Prefecture, produces polishing machines not only for the semiconductor industry but also for demanding use cases such as renewable energy systems and optical films. President Ryunosuke Kawahara draws inspiration from the region\u2019s rich lacquerware-making tradition, or urushi-nuri. \u201cI think that the biggest characteristic of the area is that it is a home of craftsmanship. Local people have ideas and designs that are integrated into the area\u2019s industry, elevating the overall level of monozukuri,\u201d he says. In today\u2019s competitive chip-making landscape, Kawahara recognizes the need for efficient machines. \u201cOur edge polisher machine excels in shape controllability, which creates optimal edge shapes and reduces variation, making it an indispensable part of modern semiconductor manufacturing processes,\u201d he said. Over time, BBS Kinmei worked to build a strong production base in Japan as the country\u2019s semiconductor industry rapidly grew. Now, with over 60% of orders coming from China, along with sales to other regions such as Europe, South Korea and Taiwan, BBS Kinmei is ready to make an impact globally. \u201cRegarding international expansion, we believe that a flexible international strategy is necessary, especially in the semiconductor and precision machinery fields, where markets are changing rapidly,\u201d Kawahara said.<\/p>\n
