Brief History
The company also produces machine tools and has significantly contributed to Hyundai Motors being widely recognized in the Americas as a leading auto manufacturer. But, the Hyundai Group is so much more—an innovator in shipping, aviation, communications devices—the list goes on and on. In order to serve these diverse industries, Hyundai set out to find the best way to machine its extraordinary volume and mix of parts. The Hyundai leadership recognized that no one could do it better. In 1977, Hyundai WIA was born to build world-class CNC machines and has ever since.
