I have profound feeling to see my well-thought idea becoming a shape.

Q1.What motivated you to decide joining TATENO MACHINERY.

The accounting department’s general manager is my relative, and he suggested me “Why don’t you try design work”.As I was studying at the university of technology, I was very interested in joining the company.

Q2.What are your future [dream and goal]?

Now I can only design basic parts, but I wish I can do the design of complicated parts and the configuration of machine all by myself.

Q3.Please give a message to junior fellows considering to work in the manufacturing industry.

You can draw any thing with any shape in the drawing, but that doesn’t mean that all of them can be processed.That is why, if you are thinking of working as the mechanical designer, not only the knowledge of how to draw a mechanical drawing but also the knowledge of processing will be necessary.
