Citizen Machinery was founded in 1982 and is a subsidiary of the well known global company Citizen Watch, best known as the manufacturer of high-precision timepieces, including the smallest watch, the thinnest watch, and the most accurate watch available today.

Based in Nagano Japan, Citizen Machinery's vertical integration has led to the development of advanced production equipment. Among these are the highly precise, highly versatile Swiss-type turning centers known in the trade as CINCOM (CItizen Numerically Controlled Machines).

CINCOM machines are the most widely accepted Swiss-type turning centers in the world. These machines are used extensively to manufacture an array of products, including medical instruments, electronics, fiber optics, automobiles, business machines, aerospace, defense, firearms, tools, valves, fasteners, and many others.

In April of this year it was announced that John Hart Pty Ltd would be the exclusive agent for Citizen’s Cincom products in Australia. The coming together of these two companies offers customers the advantages of John Hart’s Australia wide network of technical and service support..

The addition of the Citizen Machinery range complements John Hart’s other world leading brands and offers another manufacturing solution to customers.
