This year, the Supplier Performance Award was given to only the five companies among all Safran AE’s suppliers in the world, recognized its excellence in all areas relating to support for production deliveries, such as quality and on-time delivery through a year. We are the first Japanese company who won the award in the field of machining. It was an unexceptional achievement that a young company, only the 7 years has passed since the establishment, won the award. As the result of our commitment to the quality, cost, and delivery, highly regarded our capabilities for technical development and suggestion led to the award.

Lots of our partners from Safran AE, such as Senior Vice Presidents came from France and participated in the party.

Co., Ltd., are also participated to celebrate our achievement.
At the ceremony of the award, Mr. Claude QUILLIEN, Senior Vice President from Safran AE, gave a speech as following.
“We started this journey in 2013. We were looking for partners who were able to machine this critical material, which is complex and difficult to be machined. When I looked everywhere, one guy in AeroEdge helped us to machine and to deliver this part.
Last time I was in your plant in 2016, the plant was not completely finished for mass production because it was the beginning of the plant. It was a big success and I’m very pleased to be with you today, and to have been here in the beginning of the story. I’m quite sure it is not finished and you will be part of new journey we are launching for new engines.”
We are very honored to receive such impressive award from Safran AE, with which have been making long-standing relationships since our establishment in 2015. We look forward to continuing to exceed expectations and developing innovative technology and services with Safran AE.
