In recent years, as the manufacturing of electronic components for LED and related products has boomed in China, Taiwan and South Korea, NSK has supplied a great deal of Megatorque Motor™ products. NSK has worked diligently to reflect the voice of its customers in its product planning and to strengthen its marketing activities in Japan and East Asia, which is on the verge of becoming the manufacturing heartland for electronic components.
