Nidec Drive Technology Corporation brings decades of expertise in precision gear technology to the demanding world of machine tools and metal forming equipment. Our legacy began with pioneering R&D efforts that supported the development of advanced machining centers and routers in Japan — laying the foundation for our reputation in high-performance gearing and drive systems.
Today, we are a trusted partner to many of the world’s leading OEMs, providing drive solutions for some of the most efficient and reliable metal cutting, forming, press feed, and transfer systems available. Our continued innovation and collaboration have positioned us at the forefront of motion control solutions in this highly specialized sector.
Nidec DTC offers a comprehensive lineup of robust and durable speed reducers, including planetary and cycloidal designs, all engineered to perform in the rugged environments typical of machine tool and metal forming applications. Our diverse product portfolio meets a wide range of requirements, from varying torque capacities and levels of precision to flexible mounting configurations that accommodate the different axes of movement in complex machinery.
With extensive application knowledge, we support an array of systems such as CNC machining centers, metal stamping presses, press feed and transfer mechanisms, precision routers and milling machines, as well as high-speed punching and shearing equipment. Across these applications, Nidec DTC delivers reliable performance, ensuring your machinery operates with maximum efficiency, durability, and control.
Some examples of applications where Nidec DTC has extensive applications experience and knowledge would be the following;
At Nidec Drive Technology Corporation, we collaborate closely with machine builders specializing in CNC routers and various multi-axis cutting technologies — including plasma, waterjet, and laser systems. These high-performance machines demand precise, synchronized movement across multiple axes, often requiring robust planetary gear reduction systems.
In a broad range of industrial joining applications, there has been a clear transition away from traditional hydraulic actuators and large ball screw mechanisms due to their size, complexity, and maintenance demands. OEMs and machine builders are increasingly adopting electromechanical systems that offer a more compact footprint and improved energy efficiency.
The shift toward modular, reconfigurable press automation systems continues to accelerate, driven by the need for higher throughput, flexibility, and space optimization. Nidec DTC has extensive experience supporting press transfer and feed applications where minimal press window clearances and limited floor space necessitate highly compact, efficient drivetrain solutions.
Nidec Drive Technology Corporation brings decades of experience supporting the robotics industry, with deep roots originating in Japan. Today, we continue to build on this legacy by partnering with authorized system integrators across North America, delivering high-performance solutions for a wide range of automation projects.
Our servo-grade planetary gear reducers are a trusted solution for automated tool changers in CNC machinery. With a wide selection of frame sizes and gear ratios, we offer equipment builders the flexibility to support a full spectrum of applications — from light-duty operations to high-payload systems demanding substantial moment capacity.
In the evolving landscape of flexible manufacturing, the transition from cam-driven systems to servo motor-controlled indexing platforms is critical for achieving greater precision, flexibility, and competitive advantage.
