Grand Opening Of Takisawa U.S. Headquarters



A traditional Japanese Kagamiwari ceremony marked the grand opening of the new Takisawa U.S. headquarters in Schaumburg, IL, on May 28, 2015. Over 100 machine tool industry executives and local officials gathered at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel as Takisawa representatives cracked open a barrel of sake with mallets to toast the machine tool builder's expansion in the United States. Takisawa's U.S. headquarters were established here to provide additional service and support to its growing U.S. customer base. "Through our new technical center I expect Takisawa, Inc.'s volume of sales to be $30 million in the near future," said Kazuhiro Harada, President Takisawa Machine Tool Co. Ltd.

Tours and an open house held the day after the ceremony provided visitors with Takisawa machining demonstrations, examples of test-cut capabilities and previews of the state-of-the-art showroom, spare parts warehouse and machine service/rebuild center. Built from the ground up on 2.4 acres, the 13,500 square foot facility is located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago.

Takisawa's machine line includes lathes, piston machines, multipurpose machines and vertical machining centers.
