Fujikin
Incorporated, founded in 1930, is recognized as a global leader in
the manufacture of fluid and gas automatic control equipment, specialized
control units, as well as ultra high purity valves and fittings. Fujikin's
products are used throughout the semiconductor, aerospace, chemical
and electric power generation industries. For High Purity Products,
Fujikin is currently the only company manufacturing in a Class-1 clean
room environment. |
Daruma Dolls--Okiagari Koboshi (Tumbler
Doll)--One of the most popular talismans of good luck in modern Japan
is the armless, legless, and eyeless Daruma doll, or tumbler doll.
Sold at temple festivals and fairs, such dolls are typically made
of papier-mache, painted red, and depict Bodhidharma seated in mediation.
When knocked on its side, the doll pops back to the upright position
(hence "tumbler" doll, or "okiagari koboshi").
The doll comes in many sizes - the standard size is larger than a
basketball. While most Daruma dolls are male, some Japanese localities
have female daruma ("ehime daruma" or "princess daru
ma").
Eye-Painting Custom--At New Year time, many Japanese individuals and
corporations buy a Daruma doll, make a resolution, and then paint
in one of the eyes. If, during the year, they are able to achieve
their goal, they paint in the second eye. We never paint the second
pupil until our goal of satisfying the challenging demands of our
customers are met in the high purity semiconductor and other discrete
manufacturing and process equipment industries. |
For
Products used in Semiconductor Wafer manufacturing Fujikin has pioneered
high quality, advanced surface treatment technology in order to
deal with the problems surrounding corrosion and particle generation
in semiconductor manufacturing. In today's high-volume production
environments, killer particles as small as 0.025 micron now play
a large role in robbing fabs of higher throughput and device yields.
Only Fujikin's valves and fittings are polished to an internal finish
of less than 5 Ra Max. to minimize particle contamination and buildup.
Fujikin's ultra pure manufacturing process features superior polishing,
followed by a thorough cleaning process that removes all residual
contaminants and particles. Every product is then carefully inspected
before shipping.
Mission Statement
Dedicated to the progress
and prosperity of the semiconductor and other high purity discrete
manufacturing and process industries where our advanced fluid and
gas flow technologies provide precision measurement and control
in critical applications.
