Success story
Nabtesco Corporation came into existence in 2004 from the fusion of the machine construction companies Teijin Seiki Ltd. and NABCO Ltd. The idea to merge the companies to form a global player in the area of precision gears came into being in 2002: During collaboration on a project in the area of hydraulic systems, the two sides both recognised the opportunities involved with a fusion. The product lines and technical core competences complemented each other perfectly. The two partners also had numerous commonalities in strategic alignment and company philosophy. As a result, the two individual companies joined in 2004 to form Nabtesco Corporation. The Nabtesco group is subdivided into the areas "Precision Equipment", "Transport Equipment", "Industrial Equipment" as well as "Aircraft and Oil Hydraulic Equipment".
The history of the company Nabtesco Precision is closely linked with the development of the RV reduction gear. Since the late 1970s it has been an important component in the propulsion motors of construction machinery. In the early 1980s Teijin Seiki used this patented gear construction for the first time in industrial robots - with resounding success. Today Nabtesco Corporation is the world's largest producer of precision gears and supplies roughly 60 per cent of all large robot manufacturers. More than 30 years of experience in development and construction guarantee the highest quality in production and service.
