Tribology and Precision Machining i-Khoza (TriPreM) was established in early 2012. Since then, TriPreM has practiced Japanese style research and education not limited to the 5S system, Senpai-Kohai, punctually, perfectionism in works, and finding root causes of problems using \u201cwhy why analysis”.<\/span><\/p>\n

We do the research fundamentals of tribological phenomena and support related industries through research activities and cultivating students and i-Kohza members. Our philosophy and interest are to develop solutions for practical problems from a scientific viewpoint. With this philosophy, TriPreM has 8 years experience in industrial collaborative research projects with SEAGATE, IHI, KAWAI, Daiichi Kagaku, NSK, and other industrial companies. We have designed and developed original testing apparatuses accordingly to the requirements to find the root causes of practical problems.<\/span><\/p>\n
