Jiangsu Nanfang Precision, a Changzhou bearing maker founded in 1988, supplies needle roller bearings built for industrial robot RV reducers.
Jiangsu Nanfang Precision Co., Ltd. is a China-based bearing and precision component manufacturer headquartered in Changzhou, Jiangsu province. The company states on its official site that it has been in operation since 1988, building a business focused on the transmission-parts field: needle roller bearings, one-way clutches, and one-way pulley (freewheel pulley) assemblies, alongside precision machined components such as piston-type parts, internal-spline rings and external gear rings used in automotive braking systems and motorcycle engines.
Within its industrial-application product range, Nanfang Precision lists a dedicated Robot RV Reducer Bearing line (product code B018), a needle roller bearing engineered specifically for the RV reducers used in the joints of industrial robots. Its broader needle roller bearing catalogue includes cage assembly bearings, flanged needle bearings (NA and NK series), support roller bearings (NUTR and NATV series), bolt-type needle bearings (NUKR and KR series), and flat thrust needle bearings, sold under model codes such as B044 through B068.
The company holds IATF 16949 automotive quality management certification, ISO 14001 environmental management certification, and ISO 45001 occupational health and safety certification, and it was designated a national-level 'little giant' (specialized, refined, differentiated and innovative) enterprise in 2022. Nanfang Precision is publicly traded on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange under ticker 002553. According to its official product pages, its RV reducer bearing series has been adopted by multiple Fortune Global 500 manufacturers, though the company does not name specific customers on its public site.
Because its RV reducer bearing line supplies a core motion-transmission component used inside industrial robot joints, Nanfang Precision functions as a component supplier to the robotics manufacturing supply chain, in addition to its larger automotive and general-machinery bearing business.
The company's broader needle roller bearing catalogue on its official product pages spans flanged bearings in the NA and NK series, support roller bearings in the NUTR and NATV series, bolt-type needle bearings in the NUKR and KR series, and flat thrust needle bearings, most of which are marketed for use in general industrial machinery, commercial-vehicle steering systems, and motorcycle engine assemblies rather than robotics specifically. Nanfang Precision is listed as an exhibitor at WRC 2026 in Beijing, where its robot RV reducer bearing line is expected to be a featured product alongside its established transmission-bearing business.
