Changing the Way We Manufacture
We supply products that support the latest industrial technologies.
To produce state-of-the-art products all over the world, it is necessary to use the high-quality equipment in the manufacturing process. One of THK's tasks is to meet the need of efficiency in manufacturing and continue to raise our product quality to even higher levels.
Semiconductor manufacturing equipment
The equipment that manufactures semiconductor chips , can be called the "brains" of IT related products. This requires both high precision in chip processing and high productivity in chip manufacturing. Semiconductor chips are very small in size so the manufacturing equipment must control machine movements in the order of one 10,000th of a millimetre. To implement technology which can exercise this level of control reliably, THK's Miniature LM guides , Miniature Ball Screws and other products are utalised.
Electronic part mounters and industrial robot transport systems
Cell phones, digital cameras and other similar devices all use electric circuit boards. The electronic part mounter that fits ICs and other electronics components on those boards uses our LM Guides for tool positioning in the order of microns. Alternatively, industrial robots, conveyance systems and other large manufacturing machines also use our LM guides in their guidance systems. THK's products can be found in a wide range of manufacturing fields.
THK's products are used in various industries. For typical application examples of other THK products, click "Applications by industry".
