1967
Beginning of the production of ball screw
The tradition of production of ball screws in Kuřim, and thus in the whole Czech Republic, dates back to 1967. The beginning of production is closely connected with the production of automated, numerically controlled machine tools in the 1960s, which required the development of more advanced components. The sliding thread bolts used until then were insufficient for this type of machine due to their low mechanical efficiency. For this reason, they were gradually replaced with a ball thread.
1997
Establishment of an independent company Kuličkové šrouby Kuřim
The production of ball screws has been under the auspices of the TOS Kuřim plant from the very beginning. This did not change until the 1990s, more precisely between 1996 and 1997, when privatization took place and the grouping of the company changed. In 1996, a new company, TOS Kuřim-KŠ, spun off from TOS Kuřim, and a year later the company changed its name to Kuličkové šrouby Kuřim and thus became an officially independent entity.
2000
The company started with annual ISO 9001 certification
From the beginning of its existence, the company Kuličkové šrouby Kuřim has been fully aware of the importance of maintaining the highest possible quality of its products in order to build a stable place on the market. The high level of the quality system has been certified according to the ISO 9001 standard every year since 2000. At present, the quality management system according to EN ISO 9001: 2008 is certified by TÜV NORD CERT GmbH.

The total area of the company since this year is 8,800 m2.
