Teppei Kamagata, Chief, Technical Development Dept.

My work and role in the cooperative
Design is based on the motto "safe and accessible
After graduating from college, I joined Kyodo as an engineer.
I am mainly engaged in designing "Probe Card Container", one of our self-developed products.
In the probe card, a probe card is a chip used in computers, cell phones, cameras, etc. Probe card is a very important and expensive product that is indispensable for manufacturing chips used in personal computers, cell phones, cameras, and so on. Since it is necessary to go through various processes to finally manufacture chips, we consult with and evaluate them with our customers, taking into consideration various processes as well as safety. Our motto in design is "safe and user-friendly cases.
It is only with the cooperation of everyone involved that we are able to achieve this goal.

What I find particularly rewarding in my current job is when I am able to complete the development of a product that satisfies our customers with the cooperation of many people.
Because of the various processes involved and the large number of people who come into contact with our products, we receive a variety of requests from our customers. In order to satisfy these demands, we need to come up with many ideas, and to test and verify them, we need the cooperation of everyone in the company, as well as cooperating manufacturers and suppliers.
As a result of our efforts, we are able to meet our customers' needs. We have made mistakes during prototyping and have had to ask for help just before the delivery date, but no one has looked at us with displeasure and worked together on their days off to do the processing, or changed the arrangements to give us the highest priority.
Because of this experience, I strongly felt that I should not inconvenience the people involved as much as possible, and I believe that the accuracy of my designs has increased as well.
Designing a win-win situation for everyone involved.
To do this, we need to understand the intended use of the customer's product, as well as the manufacturing method and process at the supplier.
I would like to pursue a "win-win" design for everyone with the motto, "It is not the money that counts, but the thoughtfulness that counts", always considering both sides of the issue.
