And with Ikegami, you won’t get a bill for every hour they spend working with your team. It’s a part of Ikegami’s fundamental customer service values to do more than deliver a tool. It’s simply the Ikegami way.

“Very few shops have Ikegami’s CNC equipment, CAD systems or laser welders to handle our very large tools,” said Eduardo Preciado, Sony Mechanical Design Engineer. “But at Ikegami, it’s the people, not just the equipment, that make them a true partner. They not only say they’re part of our team, they act like it. We can count on them to work with us to the very end in solving any problem, even if they have to send a team into our factories to do the work on site.”


BOSCH

IKEGAMI FROM START TO FINISH.

Their superior command of 3D modeling tools and practical, hands-on experience with what works and what can causeBosch testimonial manufacturing flaws and difficulties downstream is invaluable early in the design process. Then, once tools are in production, Ikegami’s familiarity helps them to maintain Bosch tools quickly and with expert knowledge.

What’s won the Bosch team’s praise and loyalty is Ikegami’s dedication to service. According to Bosch, Ikegami not only knows each tool as though they last saw it yesterday, but their sensitivity to the cost of a down production line is as high as their own.

“Ikegami being in Tijuana saves at least 10 days of wasted time just clearing customs when a tool is shipped to the US. But that’s not the all that makes them superior to any other vendor we could work with. Their staff is mature and we find no trade-offs with equipment and services,” said Bosch Product Development Engineer Arturo Castro. “What’s really amazing is how in tune they are to the importance of fast turnaround on our operating costs. They’ll come to our factory to work day and night so we’re up and running as fast as possible!”

NO ORDINARY VENDOR.
People say it all the time, but in the case of Ikegami and Bosch, the working relationship is a partnership. This is true because Ikegami believes that service and commitment are what make its people, tools, equipment and facilities truly valuable.
