ULVAC Research and Development

Ongoing value creation from a medium to long term perspective

ULVAC has long been a source of vacuum-technology-based products and materials indispensable for wideranging industries. Building on our strengths in vacuum technology, we will continue to promote innovative, pioneering R&D capable of addressing actual and potential needs and create high-added-value products and technologies, thus contributing to the progress of society.

To continue to provide innovative technologies and products in the everchanging market, our R&D projects undergo selection and focus in which a clear distinction is made between "development of innovative technology for principal products of the mainstay business" and "development of fundamental technologies in preparation for the future" based on analysis of customer needs and market trends. Moreover, our development structure leverages business partnerships with various companies and research institutions.

We are also striving to equip ourselves with the advanced technologies necessary to respond swiftly to the progress of 5G and IoT in line with the establishment of global network infrastructure and the smart society while flexibly addressing social issues, including environmental issues such as global warming and climate change, thus establishing a foundation for long-term sustainable growth.

Global Network

Networks offering solutions to support industrial development worldwide

ULVAC has established optimal networks covering development, sales, manufacturing, and services not only for Japan but also for the United States, Europe and Asia.
To spur development by capitalizing on the global development system, ULVAC is promoting joint development with leading companies and research institutions around the world.

"Open R&D"

ULVAC conducts R&D near customers and shares the outcomes throughout the Group.

Global production system

In regard to manufacturing, ULVAC has expanded a production system centering on Japan, China, South Korea, and Taiwan. Going forward, we will emphasize improvement of production efficiency by promoting optimal production. Whereas each base has established its own local supply chain, the ULVAC Group will strive to optimize procurement by developing a global supply chain.

Regional supply chain

Capital Expenditures and R&D Expenses (Actual and Forecast)

R&D investments (capital expenditures for R&D and R&D expenses) are expected to continue increasing. Active development is ex-pected to lead to future growth, along with efforts in next-generation displays/logic and next-generation non-volatile memory.
