Ogura began business in Tokyo in 1928 with a patent for a new type of Chuck for machining tools. Then, in 1939, the company became the first in Japan to manufacturer an electric Pipe Threading Machine. Over the following years more models were developed, and the Ogura brand became known all over the country. This achievement was recognized in 1974 when, its founder and inventor, Jyuzo Ogura, was awarded a decoration by the Science and Technology Agency. Development continued when the company started to manufacturer a range of new products for the concrete and construction market that utilized a compact hydraulic pump and motor.
The new tools proved to be reliable, lightweight and versatile and these new technologies made Ogura a leader in the hydraulic power tool industry. The Head Quarters was moved to the present location in Knagawa in 1983 and in 1990 the second factory was established in Fukuoka. Ogura's wide produt range, including electro hydraulic rebar cutters, benders and hole punchers, are assembled in Fukuoka factory and exported worldwide. Ogura continues to strive to satisfy its customers worldwide by listening to their needs and by continuing to develop unique, innovative and high-quality products and services.
