History of Business
| 1977 | Established Aizu Electric Discharge Machine Works in Aizuwakamatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture, and we began manufacturing precision machine parts and sales activities, mainly using electric machining methods. |
| 1979 | We established Aizu Discharge Manufacturing Co. with the capital of 1 million yen. Former address: Hatta, Kawahigashi-cho, Kawanuma-gun, Fukushima Prefecture |
| 1982 | We began manufacture of electric discharge machining tools and peripheral equipment. |
| 1985 | We relocated in order to expand the business and to build a new factory of 500sq. m. (Address: Bandai-machi, Yama-gun, Fukushima Prefecture) and began research and development of fine ceramics. |
| 1987 | We began developing applications, manufacturing equipment and components for fine ceramics. We began supplying ceramic parts to electric discharge machine manufacturers and expanded 230 sq.m. as a ceramic processing plant. |
| 1989 | The company name was changed to EXCERA Inc. |
| 1991 | We established an injection molding production division and a mold making division. We expanded our mold shop and our injection molding shop.（180㎡） |
| 1998 | We began developing and manufacturing of machine tool units, and supplying unit products to electric discharge machine manufacturers. |
| 2005 | The company name was changed to EMG Co., Ltd. |
| 2006 | We acquired and relocated our factory. (Present address: Asayama, Kawahigashi-cho, Aizuwakamatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture) |
