Jewel Parts

Namiki supplies industrial jewel parts such as jewel bearings, diamond cantilevers, watch exterior parts, and sapphire wafers which are made of synthetic sapphire which is produced in-house. They have developed sapphire step wafers, with a step height of 0.22 nanometres, which are expected to become the height standard for scanning probe microscopy (SPM), plus Immobilization plates for observing bio-materials.[2]

DC Motors

Namiki supplies DC coreless motors, DC brushless motors and geared motors. In 2004, they developed the world's smallest micro geared motor (diameter 1.5mm) for use in medical equipment, (catheters, endoscopes) and Micro-robots. [3]
