History
Proven Technology in the Domestic Market, Preparing for Global Expansion.
DDM’s history follows a clear sequence.
Technology comes first, growth follows, and expansion comes last.
The content below is not a simple growth story, but a validation timeline
that shows how DDM’s technology has been proven over time.
since1988 ~ 2008
Founded in 1988 as Daedeok Machinery, DDM began as a manufacturing-focused company. During this period, we accumulated core machining and component know-how, establishing the technical foundation that still defines our products today.
since2009 ~ 2014
Starting in 2009, DDM experienced collaboration with external manufacturing partners. This phase was not about sourcing volume, but about technical comparison. We analyzed process-based durability differences, material behavior, and post-installation failure patterns. This period shaped DDM’s ability to define what constitutes reliable technology.
since2015 ~ 2018
With technical standards established, DDM expanded operations through facility relocation in 2015. Growth during this stage was driven by field-proven performance in the domestic market. Our technology was repeatedly selected by repair shops because it reduced rework and improved reliability..
since2019 ~ 2021
In 2019, DDM transitioned into a corporate entity to manage technology systematically. We secured two patents and achieved Venture Company Certification in 2021. This marked the shift from individual expertise to structured, documented corporate technology.
since2022 ~ Present
Rather than rushing exports, DDM focused on meeting international requirements. In 2024, we obtained FTA export certification for propeller shafts, along with ISO 9001 and ESG-based management systems. In 2025, we completed expansion into a new facility to support the next phase of growth..
