Industrial Gears & Gear Racks
Precision motion and power transmission — CNC hobbed, shaped and ground gears from module 0.5 to 20 with controlled-atmosphere heat treatment.
Built to your drawing, to your standard
Gears are the precision-engineered heart of mechanical power transmission — maintaining exact angular relationships between shafts with efficiency that routinely exceeds 98%.
MACHINING Force gears are manufactured to DIN 3962 quality grades 7 through 10 as standard, with AGMA Q10-Q12 available for precision applications. Modules from 0.5 to 20, 20° pressure angle standard, from small instrument gears to large industrial ring gears exceeding 2 metres in diameter.

From drawing to inspected part
Engineering & DFM Review
Our application engineers review your 2D drawing or 3D STEP model, run a design-for-manufacture study, and recommend material grade, heat treatment and surface finish to meet the specified duty cycle at the lowest landed cost.
Precision Manufacturing
CNC turning, 3–5 axis milling, cylindrical and internal grinding, gear hobbing, induction and case hardening — all performed in-house on calibrated equipment under IATF 16949-aligned process control.
Quality Verification
Statistical process control on critical dimensions, first-article (FAI/PPAP) approval, CMM traceable measurement, Rockwell/Brinell hardness mapping and Ra surface-roughness verification per ISO 9001:2015.
Preservation & Dispatch
VCI oil, desiccant sachet and heat-sealed PE for corrosion protection; ISPM-15 fumigation-free plywood cases; barcode labelling and pre-cleared export documentation for door-to-door delivery.
Trusted across demanding sectors
Our parts run inside gearboxes, drivelines and finished machinery for OEMs in a dozen industries — supported by full traceability and consistent global delivery.
Six layers of verification
Every batch passes chemistry, dimension, hardness, balance, finish and NDT gates before it leaves the plant.
Material Certification (EN 10204 3.1)
Every heat is verified by optical emission spectrometry against the ordered grade. Certified mill test reports (MTC) accompany each shipment and are archived for ten years for full lot-to-lot traceability.
Dimensional Inspection (CMM & FAI)
Zeiss and Mitutoyo coordinate measuring machines verify GD&T callouts to ISO 1101. First-article inspection (FAI) and PPAP Level 3 packages are issued for automotive and safety-critical parts on request.
Hardness & Metallurgical Analysis
Rockwell (HRC), Brinell (HB) and micro-Vickers hardness maps confirm case depth and core properties. Metallographic sections are examined at 100–500× for grain size, phase distribution and inclusion rating.
Dynamic Balancing (ISO 1940)
Rotating components — pulleys, sheaves and gears above 1,800 RPM — are dynamic-balanced to G6.3 as standard, with G2.5 available for high-speed drives. Residual unbalance is reported in g·mm per plane.
Surface Finish & Coating Verification
Contact and non-contact Ra/Rz measurement, coating thickness by magnetic and eddy-current gauge, adhesion by cross-cut, and 500–1,000 h salt-spray corrosion testing per ASTM B117 on plated and painted parts.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
Magnetic particle (MPI), liquid dye penetrant (LPI) and ultrasonic (UT) inspection by ASNT Level II operators. Radiographic (RT) inspection subcontracted to accredited third-party labs when required.

Variants engineered for every drive
Spur Gear
Straight-cut teeth parallel to the axis. Simple to manufacture, no axial thrust — used in lower-speed applications and simple gear trains.
Learn moreHelical Gear
Angled teeth that engage gradually, reducing noise and increasing load capacity 20-30% versus spur gears. Generates axial thrust.
Learn moreBevel Gear
Conical gear with teeth on a tapered surface, transmitting power between intersecting shafts — typically 90°. Straight or spiral profile.
Learn moreWorm Gear & Wheel
Screw-like worm driving a mating helical wheel — high reduction ratios (5:1 to 100:1) with self-locking capability.
Learn moreLinear Gear Rack
Flat bar with gear teeth converting rotary motion from a mating pinion into linear motion for CNC axes and automation.
Learn morePlanetary Gear Set
Sun gear surrounded by planet gears within an outer ring — high torque density in a compact envelope for transmissions.
