The Japanese technology corporation Kyocera, a leading manufacturer of fine ceramic products, opens a technology centre for its cutting tools division at the company office in Neuss. The centre is intended for customer training sessions as well as for research and development. Tools for industrial metalworking from Kyocera are used in general and automotive engineering as well as in die and mould industry.
Together with the mayor of Neuss Herbert Napp, the European Head of Kyocera Mitsuru Imanaka took part in the ceremonial cutting of the ribbon to open the technology centre. Kyocera is investing roughly one million Euros in technical equipment for the new centre. The company headquarters in Neuss have thus seen the creation of a location to carry out customer training, benchmark tests and basic experiments, where advances can also be achieved in research and development solutions. Kyocera tools offer solutions for existing and future requirements in the cutting (chip removal) industry. In the technology centre, the company will be exhibiting products for internal and external turning, drilling, milling, tapping and cut off.
