R&D
Since establishing our corporate R&D center in 2000, we have localized imported core engine components one by one.
Research & Development
Technology that makeswhat could not be made
R&D at S&W starts on the shop floor. Numerical analysis of cam profiles and machining programs, design and analysis of forging dies, forming and joining of super heat-resistant alloys — all were problems we had to solve ourselves in order to make real products.
Through government research projects and purchase-conditioned new product development programs we localized cams and camshafts for large engines, and the technology gained along the way is protected by patents and utility models.
