## Materials Inventory

We have a complete stock of steel alloy materials on hand in a variety of grades from hardening alloys to carburizing that can meet the specs of any emergency gear replacement for manufacturers in Ohio. This allows us to begin the gear manufacturing process the same day a breakdown service order is received.

## Gear Manufacturing

During the gear manufacturing process, the steel blanks make their way through our 100,000 square foot facility making pit stops at various sophisticated machinery before being sent for quality control and final assembly. Our in-house hobbing center features automated CNC hobbing equipment and manual machines that are used to cut the length and diameter of a gear to spec. The a milling center is where skilled machinists use 2 Fadal CNC mills and other manual mills that are custom programmed for each type of gear. /

## Precision Grinding

Perhaps the most important part of the gear manufacturing process is precision grinding. This assures that your emergency gear replacement will work properly when installed on the machine. Here we have 2 Blanchard 42”Grinders, 4 ID grinders, 6 OD grinders, and several surface grinders that are used for cylindrical, bore and face grinding of the gear to meet AGMA Q15, DIN 2 and AGMA A2 requirements.
