Analog Core Technologies
The core of Maxell, the element without which we cannot be who we are, is our Analog Core Technologies. Human senses such as seeing, hearing,
and touching traverse the border between digital and analog, and lie beyond it. We believe that the analog world has the ability to stimulate these senses and express them without limit.

Analog Core Technologies connect the analog to the digital, and play an indispensable role in realizing Monozukuri manufacturing in complex and delicate fields that cannot be achieved by digital technology alone.

"Mixing & Dispersion" for uniform mixing regardless of material size, hardness, and viscosity of liquids, "Fine Coating" for coating paints and adhesives of all viscosities onto wide area with uniform thicknesses, and "High Precision Molding & Forming", precision mold manufacturing technologies and molding techniques cultivated through manufacturing of cassette shells, optical discs, and lenses. We will use these to create unique functions with high quality and provide completely new products and services.
