2011.07.27　再校　CAT-1552-1　Ⅰ04-24 Gentle to The Earth Nippon Thompson Co., Ltd. is working to develop global environment-friendly products. It is committed to developing products that make its customer's machinery and equipment more reliable, Gentle to The Earth thereby contributing to preserving the global environment. This development stance manifests well in the keyword "Oil Minimum". Our pursuit of Oil Minimum has led to the creation of ’s proprietary family of lubricating parts as "C-Lube". "C-Lube" minimizes usage of lubrication oil and supplies the optimal amount of lubrication oil for long period of time. So it realizes long term maintenance free and contributes to the global environment preservation. The "Interchangeable" is a result of our consideration to the environment and radical pursuit of elimination of material and inventory waste. Interchangeable is a collective name of "systems of products selection from users' perspective" which allows free interchange and replacement totally retaining the accuracy and preload of slide units and track rails. The integration of maintenance free and advanced interchangeable system with C-Lube is the "Free & Interchangeable". Ⅰ－9 Ⅰ－10
