Message from the President
Yamato Trackwork System Co.,
Ltd.
Representative Director,
President
Motoyoshi Maruyama
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support.
Yamato Trackwork System Co., Ltd. was established in 2002 as a spin-off of the railway equipment division -
founding business of Yamato Kogyo Co., Ltd. The Yamato Kogyo Group operates integrated steelworks and
rolling mills, managing the full production process from raw materials to finished railway track materials. In
addition, we are contributing to building a recycling-oriented society through environmentally responsible
manufacturing and by promoting the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) of iron resources.
Our core business centers on the design, development and manufacture of turnouts (railroad switch) and
derailment
and deviation prevention guards for earthquake protection.
The turnout plays an extremely important role in changing the route just before the trains arrive at stations.
Our company has state-of-the-art unmannedautomated machines that automatically process rails and components
for turnouts.
However, the rail-bending process still relies on skilled craftsmanship - combining cutting-edge technology
with human expertise.
Since turnout shapes vary based on their location, some can reach up to 150 meters in length.
We have secured large-scale assembly areas to temporarily construct even the largest turnouts, achieving
greater precision.
Derailment and deviation prevention guards are installed alongside Shinkansen tracks and serve to minimize
damage during major
earthquakes.
We are deeply aware that the switches and derailment/derailment prevention guards we have developed - with
dedication and sincerity - support the railway technology that is essential to society. Taking pride in our
role as a railway manufacturing company, we remain committed to producing safe, high-quality products and
contributing safety and advancement of rail infrastructure. Through ongoing innovation, we aim to create new
value and help realize a more prosperous society.
We look forward to your continued support and patronage of Yamato Trackwork System Co., Ltd.
