During the booming growth of the machi-
nery manufacturing industry in the 1980s,
Parkson Industrial seized the momentum
driven by the pursuit of high precision and
efficiency in machine tools. With its full-
spectrum capabilities in designing and
manufacturing dedicated machines, Park-
son began developing and producing
CNC rotary tables (4th axis). At the time,
beyond supplying to domestic machine
tool manufacturers, 50-60% of Parkson's
products were exported to markets such
as Japan, Europe and the United States.
The company also became an ODM part-
ner for local CNC rotary table brands, ear-
ning a strong international market share
and establishing itself as a quintessential
hidden champion in 4th-axis rotary table
exports.
Today, Parkson is widely recognized in
Taiwan as a leading manufacturer with
robust R&D capabilities in CNC inde-
xing tables, horizontal CNC rotary tab-
les, 5-axis rotary tables, high-end tilting
heads and automatic pallet changers
(APC). Despite the dominance of interna-
tional brands in the mature markets of 5-
axis rotary tables and APCs, Parkson has
emerged as a formidable contender by fo-
cusing on first-to-market strategies. In re-
cent years, the company has aggressively
invested in high-end 5-axis rotary tables
and FMS (Flexible Manufacturing System)
multi-station intelligent storage systems.
These advanced solutions rival German-
made equipment in both quality and per-
formance, effectively shortening develop-
ment timelines for high-end machine tool
manufacturers.
Parkson emphasizes that only by star-
ting from quality, service and precision
can one secure a place in the fiercely
competitive field of precision transmissi-
on. Its driving force lies in "pursuing ex-
cellence and creating differentiation."To
strengthen technical support, Parkson
has launched the "Innovation R&D Engi-
neering Center Development Program,"
establishing a dedicated team to integra-
te stress analysis, mechanical design, life-
cycle prediction and customized deve-
lopment. This initiative enables fast,
systematic technical services, significant-
ly reducing development cycles and
accelerating the localization of critical
components.
Deeply rooted in the field of precisi-
on components and high-performance
specialized machines, Parkson has
long served top-tier machine tool ma-
nufacturers both at home and abroad.
The company has extensive system in-
tegration experience with CNC inde-
xing tables, 5-axis rotary tables, auto-
matic pallet changers and AI-driven
intelligent storage systems. In recent
years, Parkson has focused on develo-
ping high-end transmission components
and modules, including precision redu-
cers and harmonic drives. With a stead-
fast commitment to "quality as the
foundation, innovation as the path,"
Parkson continues to advance as the
most trusted partner in the smart ma-
nufacturing industry. p
