Three Business Fields

J-Nyan

JTEKT supports three business fields.

TEK-NYAN

We not only make products, but also provide after-sales service and replacement parts to keep them in use for a long time.

Bearings

Bearings help smooth rotation of machine parts.
The parts rub each other without rollers. They rotate much lighter and smoother with rollers.
earings are used in the rotating parts of many things, including cars, trains, home appliances, and even spacecraft!
JTEKT develops bearings for automobiles, machine tools and semiconductor manufacturing.
We also develop special bearings that operate reliably even in harsh environments.

Machine Tools

Machine tools are "machines that make machines."
Machine tools can cut metal parts and polish their surfaces to make them smooth and precise.
One of JTEKT's strengths is cylindrical grinders, which create smooth, extreme precise dimension of round metal bars and tubes.
These machines are used to make parts that help car engines and motors run smoothly.
Manufacturing is also becoming more digital with AI and technologies that connect information between machines.
These technologies help manufacturing more efficient with less waste.

Automotive Parts

A steering system is a mechanism that transmits movement of steering wheel to tires.
We develop a wide range of steering systems to cover various sizes and types of vehicles.
Driveline Products are components that transmit power from engine or motor to tires.
These products help vehicles run smoothly and stably.
We are also developing products for eco-friendly mobility, such as electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles.
These products are helping create the future of mobility.
