Issey Hatakeyama established the Inokuty Type Machinery Office to provide excellent products based on Dr. Ariya Inokuty's world-renowned theory of centrifugal pumps.
Order for Japanese record-breaking large centrifugal pump
At well over 20 tons, the large-scale pump broke the existing record for size. It is still on display at the head office of EBARA Corporation. It proved to be the catalyst for the expansion of EBARA’s pump market share.
Japan's first axial flow pumps
During this period, with the proliferation of land improvement and arable land consolidation projects, demand for large-capacity pumps increased. EBARA was quick to start to address this, taking the industry by surprise by responding to the demand.
Japan’s first centrifugal chillers
Many large-scale facilities such as artificial silk plants, department stores, and so on, were being constructed.
As a result, centrifugal chillers for use in air conditioning were in high demand.
First Japanese-made rapid filtration system for water supply
While developing our Pumps Business, EBARA considered the development of water infrastructure in preparation for disasters, leading to the completion of a water treatment plant, and contributing to the development of Japan.
Our first large compressor, the largest in Japan at the time
This was a compressor turbine, a type of turbomachinery.
Although it was our first large-capacity compressor, its performance was superior to that of imports, and it became a regular feature in our lineup.
