About us
Our Story
Takumi Parts is a company dedicated to precision machining and mechanical manufacturing. We focus on creating components for the automotive sector of non-conventional vehicles and the industry in general. Takumi Parts was born in 2007 when Javier Suárez identified the need for technical solutions to address the mechanical components and spare parts shortage to restore and conserve historic vehicles. The same applies to the technical needs of Motorsport competition.
Over time, Mario Ruiz, an engineer with extensive experience in the design, development, and management of engineering projects, who had worked in several countries worldwide, joined the project. The merge of Javier’s experience of more than 25 years as a machinist, his encyclopaedic knowledge of classic and historic vehicles, as well as his craftsmanship skills in machining and mechanical manufacturing, together with Mario’s experience and knowledge in international markets, engineering and management, resulted in the birth of Takumi Parts S.L. in 2022.
This company aims to provide solutions to the manufacturing challenges of the automotive sector in particular and other industries in general, from precision machining to single-part manufacturing. The combination of both founders’ experience, knowledge and passion is the solid foundation on which Takumi Parts has become a benchmark in precision machining and mechanical manufacturing, providing customised technical solutions to meet its customers’ particular and most demanding needs.
Our Philosophy
The Fusion of Craftsmanship and Innovation
At Takumi Parts, our philosophy is based on the belief that true excellence is found in the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and technological innovation. We strive for perfection in every project, combining craftsmanship skills honed over the years with the latest precision machining tools and techniques. We value artisans’ legacy, dedication to quality, and meticulous attention to detail. For this reason, our order of priorities is always safety, quality, and production volume.
We are influenced by traditional Japanese philosophy in terms of the values of work and constant improvement, and we apply the concepts of Takumi and Kaizen to everything we do.
Takumi
Takumi means “craftsman” in Japanese, but this concept transcends its literal meaning in traditional Japanese philosophy. Takumi defines the pursuit of excellence. A way of thinking that drives you to work every day with discipline and perseverance to become a master.
Master Takumi dedicates his life to refining the technique and understanding the nuances of his craft in detail, using Kaizen to get as close as possible to perfection.
Kaizen
Kaizen is a Japanese concept that refers to continuous improvement. It is based on making incremental and constant improvements in all process aspects.
Kaizen involves a mindset of constant pursuit of excellence and innovation. The intention is to identify and eliminate waste, optimise efficiency, and encourage the participation of all organisational members.
Through the 5S system, this way of seeing and understanding work has been adapted to modern production and management needs.
5S Method
The 5S method is a Japanese management technique used to organise the workspace efficiently, improve productivity, and promote a safe and orderly work environment. The 5S represents five Japanese words: Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu, and Shitsuke.
The 5S method is robust for achieving an efficient, safe, and productive work environment. By implementing 5S systematically, organisations can improve employees’ quality, efficiency, and well-being, creating an environment conducive to operational excellence.
