Tokyo, March 3, 2008 — 花蜜直播app Precision Machinery, Ltd. (KPM) announced today that it will build a facility to manufacture hydraulic pumps for construction machinery at its main factory in Kobe in order to meet the increasing demand in the global market. KPM will also reorganize its main factory to enhance production capacity for various hydraulic products. Construction of the new facility will begin in April 2008, with a total investment of approximately eight billion yen. The new facility is scheduled to begin production in April 2009 and go into full operation in June 2009.
