Please be informed that Koyo Bearings has been officially rebranded to JTEKT Bearings as of April 1, 2022. For your information, this is only a change of brand. The company, its general structure, the products and services will remain the same. Our customers can rely on the continued good service and quality of our products in the future and our commitment to keep the same excellent business relationships with our valued partners, as in the past.
Please take note that although the official date for this corporate brand change will be April 1, 2022, the actual introduction of the new JTEKT branded products and the phase out of the Koyo brand will be subject to a gradual process, far beyond this date. We expect that the full transition will practically take at least 2-3 years.

What is the relation between a covid virus and a roller bearing? Well, strictly there is no relation, at least not directly . .
But surely to identify the covid virus, a massive amount of PCR tests needs to be done globally, every day. And to process all those tests quickly, increasingly automated laboratories are installed in many countries. Those laboratories need quick, smooth and reliable handling of the test materials. And here is where roller bearings come into play.
In the below linked article you can see how Koyo bearings (note: as of April 1, “Koyo” will be rebranded to “JTEKT”) are contributing with state-of-the-art bearings for such automated laboratories.
