Company Profile
- More than 300,000 CNC Lathe Tool Sensors (Tool Setter) Sold!
Metrol is a specialized manufacturer of high accuracy contact sensors, and our products can be found on numerous CNC lathes as well as automobile, semiconductor and other types of production lines around the world. We have found that high accuracy contact sensors are more capable, reliable, precise, compact, easy to operate, cleaner and economical for automated systems control, and based on that experience, have attempted to make the transition to these sensors from conventional photoelectric sensors.
Metrol Co., Ltd. was established by Akira Matsuhashi in 1976. Instead of concentrating our efforts on the development of limit switches and proximity sensors that function on the basis of detecting the presence of an object, we have been engaged in the development of contact-type sensors capable of position detection and dimensional discrimination while also being able to withstand use in harsh environments. We are currently engaged in the development and marketing of contact-type sensor application products offering both high precision and originality.

The Award of the Director-General of the Science and Technology Agency
With respect to our efforts in the machine tool field, we developed the world's first tool sensor (tool setter) for use in lathes in 1976. In 1995, our founder was presented with the Award of the Director-General of the Science and Technology Agency. Our preset tool sensors are currently used by machine tool manufacturers in more than 70 countries across the globe, and have been installed in more than 300,000 CNC lathes and CNC machining centers where they are used actively around the world. As a result of these efforts, we have been able to successfully contribute to improved productivity and reduced costs of our customers in the field of tool sensors (tool setter) used in the machine tool industry.
