NTN Creates New Joint Venture for Turning Large Bearings
NTN corporation (NTN), with Marubeni-Itochu Steel, Inc. and Kurita Inabe Corporation, will establish NTN HAKUI CORPORATION in the city of Hakui, Ishikawa Prefecture. It will perform the turning process for large bearings. Demand has been rapidly increasing for large bearings as a result of strong growth in sectors such as wind turbines.
1. Purpose of the new company
The demand from business and governmental bodies for large-scale wind turbine facilities has been rapidly increasing as the use of natural energy has been strongly promoted to preserve the global environment. The demand for leading-edge medical equipment such as high-speed CT scanners has also been growing. Thus, demand has increased for production of large bearings, necessary for such facilities and equipment. NTN's new large bearing turning operation in Hakui allows full-scale production -- covering forging, heat-treating and turning processes, together with the global expertise in forging techniques of Taira Forging. NTN will achieve further productivity improvements by reducing production leadtime and costs.
2. Schedule
NTN will establish the joint venture company in March 2007 and start operation in August 2007. The operation will start with about 15 employees and then expand to become the core of the large bearing business, one of NTN's strategic products.
