Supporting Society

With our products, we contribute to the improvement of infrastructure and a more efficient expansion of industry.  

Using our unique technologies to help support and create new value in infrastructure areas such as information technology (IT), transportation, civil engineering and construction, and even in people's dietary lives and urban functions is part of THK's business.

Telecommunications infrastructure

Telecommunications infrastructure  can be considered the nerve system that controls modern society. Improving the reliability of optical fibre communications networks is a very important task. A combination of LM Guides , Ball Screws and other THK products are used in optical fibre inspection machines to allow accurate inspection.

Shield machines (excavators)

In urban areas where space above ground is almost completely utilised, it is necessary to maintain the transportation network underground. Shield machines (excavators)  take an active part in the boring of tunnels. Our LM Guides  are used effectively in these shield machines.
