Okuma America Corporation

Global competition in the automotive market continues to grow, and being successful means producing long run and short run parts efficiently, accurately and on time. Durable and reliable Okuma automotive machining centers and lathes give you the capacity and flexibility you need to compete effectively, and, when used in conjunction with the THINC-OSP CNC control, manufacture parts quickly, with accuracy and reliability.

The Okuma Wheel Cell line presents an interesting diversion from standard operating procedure. With an eye on creating best of breed solutions for the automotive industry, we have partnered with industry leading companies to create our wheel cell solutions. We still design and develop each wheel lathe to our own exacting standards, holding fast to our principle of Mechatronics. And with 90% up time guaranteed and 10-day installations, we believe you will find this solution to be right on track. In fact, this approach has resulted in a wheel cell line used by over 90% of the market.

Okuma machine tools set the standard for high performance in the production of racing engine components—pistons, cylinder heads, camshafts, and wheels—with precise dimensional control for quality, reliability and durability. Today, we’re working with partners such as the Richard Childress Racing (RCR) NASCAR team, the Target Chip Ganassi Racing (TCGR) INDYCAR team, Comp Cams, Xceldyne Technologies and Del West USA to refine precision CNC machining techniques for the high horsepower needs of competitive motorsports. Through Mechatronics, our full-circle approach to equipment engineering, every mechanical and electrical component is performance matched to meet the most demanding metal cutting requirements.
