Slogan
Putting Efficiency
into Motion
Gears are a part of a physically moving machine and a key component that enables
a swift transmission of rotational energy into torque.
EasternGear strives to create improved performance and efficiency rather
than producing standardized products that exist on the market.
We have established ourselves through our efforts,
earning the trust of partners worldwide for our products.
Our Service
Specialized Gear Optimization
Gears and reducers are usually standardized. Standard products have inevitably limitations in performance. Eastern Gear improves the output and precision of the drive unit and enables miniaturization of the machine unit through gear optimization technology
- Customized gear production efficiently
- Shock-resistant, heavy-load durable gear teeth
- Compact design to maximize space efficiency
- Stable high output is guaranteed
Differentiated Gear Manufacturing Technology
The way to reduce manufacturing costs and maximize productivity lies solely in manufacturing technology. By integrating advanced current technologies with traditional gear processing methods, we offer products with competitive prices and exceptional quality compared to conventional production methods.
- Optimal Toolpath based on over 10 years of accumulated design data.
- Data-based
optimal ToolPath - High-precision products using simultaneous 5-axis MCT
- Process optimization through 3D machining simulation.
Global Networking
We are building a trade connection/bridge between international buyers and manufacturers in Asia by securing experts and global talents in each industry. We aim to be a partner communicating effectively with both domestic and international customers to foster mutual growth.
- Operating sales offices in Japan (Tokyo and Osaka).
- Experts in Europe, the U.S., and Southeast Asia.
- Support from China’s Global Startup Technology Support Center.
