Mikuni is an automotive parts manufacturer founded 103 years ago. Against a backdrop of growing demands from automakers, it has begun a sweeping overhaul of its manufacturing operations.
The company has positioned thermal management as a new business and aims to strengthen its production system to meet automotive requirements, rather than remaining in a traditionally supporting role.
The transformation is reportedly intended to move beyond an approach based solely on close coordination, with the integration of component design and manufacturing processes expected to advance.
