Toward the future

We hope to help create the future where people can use safer, more convenient social infrastructure on a routine basis.

To make this possible, we need to continue to create products and services that are not only of the highest quality but also meet the needs of the new times. We will actively introduce technologies and functions that are not currently used for existing products, such as AI diagnostic technology and IoT functions.

Nippon Gear has manufactured gears for over 80 years since its establishment.

With the products and services that only we can create because of our experience with gears, we will contribute to a more prosperous future for you.
