N100 Where these valves sit

Four Nagata machine contexts

Nagata is a Japanese builder of hydraulic injection molding machines from roughly 50 tons up through 450+ tons. Below are four common contexts where Nagata valves end up at the bench.

N110

NA Series presses

Nagata's core injection molding platform: NA-150, NA-220, NA-350, NA-450. Yuken proportional and Bosch Rexroth valves come off these for rebuild.

N120

NB Series presses

Nagata's mid-range line. The same family of Yuken and Rexroth valves comes through the bench.

N130

50–220 ton legacy units

Smaller Nagata machines running Yuken proportional valves and, on older units, Tokimec (JTEKT) valves that are tough to source new in North America.

N140

350–450+ ton higher-flow machines

Larger Nagata frames. Bosch Rexroth 4WRZE / 4WRZ proportional directional valves and Yuken bodies come through routinely.

N200 What NC Servo does

Component-level rebuild on Nagata valves

Each unit is opened, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt at the component level. Failed parts come from inventory or off donor units. Bench verification before ship.

N210

Spool & sleeve service

Spool wear, contamination scoring, and lap restoration on Yuken, Rexroth, and Tokimec valve bodies pulled from Nagata presses.

N220

Coil & solenoid rebuild

Burned proportional coils and degraded solenoid windings replaced. Bench testing confirms drive current and dither response.

N230

Seal & o-ring kit

Full seal replacement with modern materials. Hardened or cracked elastomers from years of run time are pulled and renewed.

N240

Pilot stage cleaning

Pilot orifices flushed, jet pipe / nozzle flapper inspected on servo units, and feedback wires checked for wear at the pilot.

N250

Bench testing

Hagenbusch and older-style hydraulic stands. Flow, null, and dynamic response verified against documented procedure before ship.

N260

Hardware repair scope

NC Servo handles the valve hardware. PLC programming, parameter setup, and machine-side controller work stays with the customer or OEM.

N400 Common faults

What usually shows up on Nagata valves

Common failure modes seen on Nagata valves at the bench. Recognize one? A part number is enough to start.

Fault log — typical intake
Spool wear & contaminationWorn spool lands and contaminated orifices on Yuken proportional valve bodies. Bench cleaning, lap restoration, and seal replacement bring the valve back to spec.
Internal leakageInternal leakage past the spool on aged Yuken and Tokimec bodies after years of cycling.
Spool stictionContamination buildup and spool stiction on Bosch Rexroth 4WRZE / 4WRZ proportional valves.
Coil & electrical failureProportional coils on Yuken and Tokimec valves degrade from heat cycling, moisture ingress, and voltage spikes. Failed coils drop the valve into a fail-safe position.

N500 Workflow

From part number to ship-back

Same four-step path through the shop whether the unit is a Yuken proportional, a Rexroth 4WRZE, or a legacy Tokimec valve.

N510

Get in touch

Call or email with the part number, machine model (NA-220, NA-350, etc.), and a photo of the nameplate if it helps.

N520

Bench review

Tech opens the unit, inspects pilot, spool, and coil, and runs it on the hydraulic stand to confirm the failure.

N530

Cost & approval

We call back with the cost and a rough turnaround. Nothing is started without your sign-off.

N540

Repair, test, ship

Failed components replaced from inventory or off donors, the valve verified under pressure, and shipped back.

N600 Common questions

Common questions about Nagata valve repair

Application-specific questions. For brand-specific FAQs, see the dedicated brand page in the brand list above.

Do you provide Nagata machine programming or software configuration?
No. We repair hardware components only: servo valves, proportional valves, and servo drives at the component level. We do not provide PLC programming, parameter configuration, software services, or system integration. If parameters are stored in external controllers, the customer or OEM configures them after the hardware repair.
What types of valves come off Nagata injection molding machines?
Most Nagata machines run Yuken proportional valves. Higher-flow configurations bring in Bosch Rexroth 4WRZE or 4WRZ proportional directional valves. Older Nagata machines often have Tokimec (now JTEKT) valves. All of these come off the bench for rebuild.
Can you repair valves from older Nagata machines?
Yes. Legacy Nagata units, including ones with Tokimec (JTEKT) hardware no longer in current production, come through the bench regularly. Component-level rebuild typically brings these valves back to working condition. If a body is past saving we will tell you.
Why are Nagata replacement parts hard to find?
Nagata is a smaller, mid-tier Japanese builder with limited distribution and parts support in North America. OEM components often need to come direct from Japan, which stretches lead time and cost. Rebuilding the existing valve sidesteps that supply path.
Can you repair Bosch Rexroth 4WRZE valves pulled from a Nagata machine?
Yes. The 4WRZE and 4WRZ proportional directional valves come through the bench routinely. The repair runs the same whether the valve came off a Nagata press or any other builder.
What is the warranty?
One year on parts and workmanship for repairs and rebuilt units. Standard exclusions apply for contamination, improper installation, and out-of-spec operation. Flushing and filtering the hydraulic system before reinstalling a repaired valve is recommended.
