Sumitomo Metals manufactures and sells railway wheels, axles, and bogie trucks, as well as forged products including crankshafts, an important component in automobile engines. Our products meet needs for extremely high dependability and safety.
Our wheels and axles for railway use command a 100% market share in Japan. They are used in the Shinkansen (bullet train) and other railway transportation, both in Japan and overseas. Sumitomo Metals’ couplers, bogie trucks, brake disks, and other products are important parts for railway vehicles.
With its long-accumulated forging technologies and diverse forging pressing equipment, Sumitomo Metals meets customers' needs for smaller, lighter crankshafts for automobiles. We are establishing a global tetrapolar production structure in Japan, China, the U.S.A. and India.
Sumitomo Metals manufactures and sells indispensable materials for industrial machinery, such as materials for molds, flanges for transmission towers, aluminum wheels for trucks and buses, and rolls.
