RMGT Heritage

Three Quarters of a Century of Press-Building Craft — Hiroshima, Japan

Ryobi MHI Graphic Technology (RMGT) was formed in 2014 from the graphic-press heritage of Ryobi Limited and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries — two Japanese industrial groups with more than 150 combined years of precision mechanical engineering. Our presses are built in Hiroshima. They have always been built in Hiroshima.

Milestones

The RMGT Press Lineage

1946
Ryobi

Ryobi founded in Hiroshima, beginning as a die-casting and precision-machinery business rooted in the post-war Japanese industrial renewal.

1960s
First Press

The first Ryobi single-colour sheetfed offset press enters commercial production — the start of the Hiroshima press engineering tradition.

1990s
B3 Matures

The Ryobi 3300 / 3400 B3 four-colour offset platform matures into a global short-run commercial print workhorse.

2014
RMGT

Ryobi × Mitsubishi Heavy Industries form RMGT — combining two Japanese press-engineering lineages under a single global brand.

Engineering Philosophy

Kaizen — Engineering as a Continuous Discipline

Our press-building discipline is kaizen — small, documented, continuous improvement over long time horizons. Every generation of RMGT press inherits the cylinder geometry, gear-train doctrine and assembly ritual of the press before it — and refines them against measured field data.

There is no single generational reinvention in an RMGT press. There are tens of thousands of small, measured, documented refinements — at the foundry, at the grinding station, at the assembly jig and at the customer service bay.
