Secure the Future
-For future safety and security-

IMV contributes to the safety and security of the world through its business and contributes to the realization of a sustainable society.
People who work at IMV are always aware and proud that all operations lead to the safety and security of the world.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support.

Vibration and Safety & Security

Since its founding in 1957, IMV has consistently focused on vibration technology and expanded its business accordingly. From automobiles and aircraft to smartphones and satellites, many products in the world are affected by “vibration”. However, it is essential that these products do not break and can be used safely. Reliability tests using our vibration testing equipment and contract testing services are indispensable for the development of such products.

Thanks to your support, we have grown to become one of the world’s leading companies in the sales of vibration testing equipment. In the field of contract testing, we have eight bases both domestically and internationally, and we provide a wide range of services, including not only vibration testing but also EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) testing and other environmental tests. Many customers also use our vibration measurement equipment. Furthermore, natural vibrations, namely earthquakes, pose a direct threat to the safety of society. Our vibration measurement equipment plays an important role in mitigating damage to buildings, machinery, and equipment during earthquakes, as well as in evacuating people.

In the disaster prevention business, we are actively working not only on preparedness for large-scale earthquakes in Japan but also on international contributions through ISO international standardization activities to demonstrate the use of seismometers in Japan to other countries. In the testing business, we are working to reduce environmental impact through the development of energy-saving products and to contribute to our customers’ labor-saving and location-independent working styles by providing cloud services.

It is our mission to meet these demands, and as a result, we believe that we can continue to exist as a sustainable company. By further strengthening our relationships with customers and flexibly responding to their requests, we will achieve sustainable growth for both our company and society.
