I also have some information on the Shibaden machines and they used the  
clones of Ampex Amtec, Colortec, and Velcomp in some machines.

I  used to have a Shibaden catalog from the 70s that showed their quads and 
they  looked to be RCA clones if not rebadged RCA.

2" Quads:
 

 
Bosch               (Germany)
 
Visual/Allen     (Bosch transport and heads from Germany w/Visual/Allen 
Electronics from  US)
 
Shibaden                      (Japan)
 
TAMCO                       (Japanese partnership btw. Ampex and Toshiba 
making Ampex designed  machines in Japan)
 

 
1" Quad:
 
Asaka (Japan) Company also known  as Asaka/ShibaSoku
 

 
Sony, NHK made 2" Quad prototypes in  Japan.
 

 
I suspect there are more to be found.  The hunt  continues!  (We need some 
Japanese QuadList  members!)

We  all know the Ampex and RCA machines.  A number of us have seen other  
machines in use.  So the question of the day  is.
 

 
What  other manufactures built quad machine?  
 

 
The  answer can not be a refurbished machine that was built on someone 
else's  platform.  I know of two of the manufactures.  I do not know a  third 
one but am aware of the machine.  There may be  more.
 

 
Answers  can not include prototypes.
