What 株式会社サイバー does
株式会社サイバー (Cyber Co., Ltd.) is a Japanese electronics design and manufacturing firm headquartered in Niihama City, Ehime Prefecture, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Aono Marine Group (founded 1894). Established in December 1968, the company employs 43 people and operates in two principal business areas: (1) design and manufacture of control systems and MMI software for radiation therapy equipment (proton beam, heavy particle, BNCT) and accelerators (cyclotrons, synchrotrons, linacs), and (2) automated gel time measurement instruments for the semiconductor, PCB, and advanced materials industries. The proprietary product line consists of the Madoka automatic gel time measurement device (2-axis eccentric mixing method, compliant with JIS K6910:2007 and IPC-TM-650 2.3.18 A standards) and the Shizuka Direct Sheet Analyzer (capable of ultra-thin 10μm prepreg analysis without sample preparation). Complementary services include electronic and electrical circuit design (analog, digital, mixed-signal PCB; PIC microcontroller and FPGA programming), and contract manufacturing (PCB mounting, control panel and harness assembly, sensor and drive wiring).
The company's revenue model is a hybrid: one-time/license-based design and development contracts for control systems and electronic circuits, and hardware sales of Madoka and Shizuka instruments distributed through Matsuo Sangyo (which operates a Yokohama demo room for customer trials). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Customer segments are large Japanese enterprises and research institutions — including Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Sumitomo Chemical, Shikoku Electric Power Group, the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), and Hiroshima University — engaged in industrial manufacturing, chemicals, energy, and academic research. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales through direct inquiry, supported by the Aono Marine Group website and a single specialized distribution partner. Operating geography is concentrated in Japan's Shikoku region, with no disclosed global footprint.
Competitive positioning rests on three pillars: (1) deep, long-tenured domain expertise in radiation therapy and accelerator control systems; (2) integrated one-stop design-to-manufacturing capability spanning hardware design, software development, and production; (3) proprietary measurement technology in gel time instruments that delivers reproducibility and the ability to handle ultra-thin sheet materials. The company is privately held, has no external venture funding, and reports no public financial metrics.

株式会社サイバー competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- Hitachi High-Tech: Hitachi High-Tech (and the parent Hitachi group) supplies particle-therapy systems, analytical/electron microscopes and semiconductor metrology. They are the dominant Japanese particle-therapy OEM and therefore both a potential customer and a benchmark for Cyber's control-system design services.
Broad incumbents
- Yokogawa Electric: Yokogawa supplies industrial process control, PLC/DCS systems and embedded controls for energy and industrial customers — adjacent to Cyber's PLC/touch-panel and accelerator control-system design work for the same Japanese industrial-control buyers.
- Mettler Toledo: Mettler Toledo offers thermal analysis (TGA, DSC), precision balances and automated laboratory QC instruments widely used in resin and polymer characterization. It overlaps with Cyber's gel-time QA instruments but as part of a much broader industrial/lab-instrument portfolio.
- Shimadzu Corporation: Shimadzu manufactures a broad analytical-instrument portfolio (spectroscopy, chromatography, thermal analysis, testing machines) used by the same electronics and advanced-materials QA customers Cyber addresses with Madoka/Shizuka. Not a direct product rival but a benchmarking incumbent in resin QA labs.
- Mitsubishi Electric: Mitsubishi Electric manufactures particle-therapy and accelerator control systems in-house as part of its energy/industrial plant business, overlapping with Cyber's proton/heavy-ion/BNCT control-system design services for Japanese OEMs and QST-equivalent research facilities.
Direct peers
- TA Instruments (Waters Corporation): Waters' TA Instruments division sells rheometers, thermal analyzers and resin-cure characterization systems (DMA, DSC, ARES) that overlap directly with Cyber's Madoka and Shizuka gel-time instruments for semiconductor and PCB resin QA. Both compete for the same industrial R&D and process-control buyers.
- Alpha Technologies (Dynisco): Alpha Technologies (now part of Dynisco) supplies moving-die rheometers (MDR) and cure analyzers for elastomer and thermoset rubber QA — directly comparable use cases to Madoka in semiconductor/PCB resin cure-time testing.
- Brabender (Anton Paar Group): Brabender's mixer/rheometer product line (Plasti-Corder, Torque Rheometers) is a direct alternative to Madoka's stirring-torque-based gel-time measurement for plastics, elastomers and thermoset resins. Both serve resin formulators and QA laboratories needing reproducible cure-time data.
- Netzsch Analyzing & Testing: Netzsch supplies thermal-rheology and curing-analysis instruments (e.g., DMA, DEA for cure monitoring) used for thermoset, epoxy and composite characterization — directly comparable to Madoka's resin gel-time and cure-behavior testing for advanced materials customers.
Regional players
- A&D Company: A&D Company is a Japanese manufacturer of precision measurement, materials-testing and analytical instruments (including rheology-adjacent devices), operating in the same domestic market as Cyber with similar enterprise customers in electronics manufacturing QA.
