Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) October 27, 2016 -- Okuma America Corporation has been awarded the ISO 9001:2015 certification by PRG Inc., (Preferred Registrar Group). Okuma is the first, and currently the only CNC machine tool builder to earn the latest ISO (International Organization for Standardization) certification.
