They have a wide range of products, from super-large bearings with an outer diameter of up to 7 meters to miniature bearings with an inner diameter of less than 1 mm. They have designed hybrid ceramic bearings using the latest manufacturing techniques and the best raw materials. In addition, they have created an extensive range of bearings that can work under challenging operating conditions.
The JTEKT company has 18 manufacturing facilities located in 7 countries and operates six technical research and development centers on three continents. By focusing its activities on key markets such as automotive, agriculture and construction industries, heavy industry, steel and wind turbine manufacturing, gear production, reduction gears, electric motors, and general machinery, JTEKT provides innovative solutions to both original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers. It is recognized as Japan's leading and the world's second-largest steering system manufacturer.
Another reason for the recognition of the Koyo brand among automotive and industrial machinery manufacturers is that all manufacturing facilities adhere to the ISO/TS 16949 standard. They aim to continuously improve themselves by innovating on strong foundations. These foundations consist of a strong technical knowledge base, the highest work standards, and engineering potential.
