What 上海名古屋精密工具股份有限公司 does

Shanghai Nagoya Precision Tools Co., Ltd. (SNSTC) is a privately-held Chinese manufacturer of non-standard precision cutting tools, established in 1992 in Shanghai as an overseas processing operation originating from Japanese parent Nastec Co., Ltd. (founded 1970). The company designs and manufactures custom PCD (polycrystalline diamond), CBN (cubic boron nitride), tungsten carbide, and diamond-coated cutting tools — including formed turning tools, indexable insert tools, PCD/CBN small-diameter endmills, solid carbide endmills, PCD micro drills, reamers, and boring tools — alongside a complementary portfolio of BT and HSK tooling system accessories.

The company's underlying technology base centers on proprietary five-axis CNC and laser tool grinding equipment, including the self-developed GIVEALASER horizontal five-axis laser tool grinding machines (3100L and 1050L) with full in-house IP covering hardware structural design and software core algorithm models. Tool run-out and dimensional accuracy is controlled within 3 microns, and high-precision gear honing wheel dressing tools achieve sub-micron surface roughness. SNSTC operates a vertically integrated workflow spanning tool design, manufacturing, diamond/PVD coating, re-sharpening, and regeneration services, plus equipment sales to downstream tool producers.

SNSTC generates revenue through direct B2B enterprise field sales with custom quote-based pricing tied to customer specifications, complemented by participation in major domestic and international trade exhibitions (CCMT, ITES, EMO, GrindingHub, JIMTOF, METALLOOBRABOTKA). The company serves manufacturers across five verticals — automotive (20+ year OEM and Tier 1/2 supplier relationships), aerospace, medical devices, new energy, and consumer electronics — with sales coverage in China through a nationwide agent network plus direct offices in Japan (Nagoya) and Vietnam. The company holds ISO 9001 certification and has received consecutive Advanced Manufacturing Top 50 Enterprise recognition from Jiading District MaLu Town Government in 2025 and 2026. Both registered capital and annual output are stated to exceed 100M RMB.
