YDK has been developing and manufacturing a wide array of motors in addition to providing cutting edge　mechanism and high quality products. These efforts have enabled us to develop into a company that customers know and trust. Starting with home sewing machine motors, which were the catalyst of our development, YDK has expanded into a variety of other fields, such as motors for automobiles, two-wheeled vehicles, home electric appliances, OA equipment, drive systems, Along the way, we have accumulated a great amount of original technologies and know-how, such as our commutator motors and brushless motors as well as our wide range of control technology, from high-velocity revolution to low-velocity revolution. Additionally, in line with the present spread of global company deployment, we have begun rationalizing our global supply structure, establishing Taiwan Yamamoto Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. in 1979 and shanghai Yamamoto Electric Co., Ltd in 1994, with the aim of meeting customer's production needs in the most appropriate locations. We believe it is our duty to maximize the benefit of these resources and use them to contribute to society.
Motors, which are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, are indispensable to modern society and are used in a variety of fields. In recent years, these motors have found additional uses in areas such as reducing environmental load and in a variety of auxiliary power units deployed in applications that assist the growing number of aged persons in society. The effectiveness of motors in these roles means that we expect to see many more such deployments in the future.
In order to respond better to the demands of this age, our company has laid out an original research and development system, and we are striving across the board to satisfy our customers from all perspectives by proposing advanced driving mechanisms while simultaneously offering comprehensive support for various customer needs.
