Business
Hota Industrial Mfg. Co., Ltd. engages in the manufacture and sale of automotive transmission components and precision machinery tools. The company's core products include transmission parts such as motor shafts, reduction box gear sets, differentials, link shafts, starter shafts for electric and fuel vehicles, engine components, gearbox components, torque converter systems, transmission shafts, balance shafts, sprockets, oil pump drives, gear collars, crank shafts, and various motorcycle spare parts. Additionally, Hota produces specialized parts for agricultural and construction machinery gearboxes, electric wheelchairs, scooters, and all-terrain vehicles. It also manufactures gear hobbing, gear shaving, gear deburring, and chamfering machines under its HARTECH brand, positioning itself as Taiwan’s top gear manufacturer with over 55 years of experience and annual production exceeding 20 million parts. Hota operates internationally with key markets in Taiwan, the United States, China, Europe, and globally, servicing automotive, agricultural, construction, and electric vehicle sectors. The company was founded in 1966 and is headquartered in Taichung, Taiwan. It has subsidiaries including KAO FONG MACHINERY and HARTECH, which focus on CNC solutions and gear manufacturing systems. Recent major company developments include a strategic equity investment in Buffalo Machinery Co., Ltd. to enhance product development and expand market share through operational synergies. Hota has also announced plans to establish a new manufacturing facility in New Mexico, USA, with an initial investment of approximately NT$1.5 billion (US$54 million) to supply electric vehicle gear components to prominent U.S. automotive customers, including Tesla. Additionally, Hota has conducted an equity buyback of 15 million shares representing 5.37% of shares outstanding for NT$5.62 billion, reflecting a strategic financial adjustment. These efforts signify Hota’s ongoing expansion in electric vehicle gear manufacturing, CNC machine tool integration, and global supply chain enhancement, reinforcing its leadership in transmission components and precision manufacturing within the automotive and related machinery industries. The company was formerly known as Hota Industrial Development Co., Ltd. before its name change in 1990 to Hota Industrial Mfg. Co., Ltd. This comprehensive product portfolio, international operational footprint, and recent strategic investments emphasize Hota’s role as a significant global supplier in auto transmission parts and gear manufacturing technology.
