Gear Manufacturing

Time is money. With our new high speed, high accuracy continuous generating grinding capability using multi-thread wheels, we're grinding gears as large as 1200 mm in diameter and module 12 much faster and more efficiently than form grinding.

We're more flexible too, with the same new platform offering rough and finish profile grinding and on-board dressing and inspection. We also excel at grinding gears as small as 2.00" in diameter.
