The quality of our custom-designed gears is ensured by a state-of-the-art metrology department. We perform systematic inspections of gear teeth using Klingelnberg CNC gear measuring machines, three-dimensional measurements with Zeiss systems, as well as roughness, hardness, and eccentricity testing.
Thanks to our experience and expertise in the production of precision mechanical components, each product is designed and engineered to meet specific needs and seamlessly integrate into our customers’ applications.
Technical excellence in custom component manufacturing
- Module Range: We produce gear teeth (spur, helical, bevel) and worm gears with modules ranging from 0.2 to 3.
- Dimensions: Turning and gear cutting capabilities for diameters from a minimum of 4 mm up to 120 mm, with maximum lengths of 140 mm.
- Accuracy Classes: We guarantee gear quality grades up to class 6 (ISO 1328), achieved directly through machining without the need for gear grinding.
- Tolerances: Extreme precision with dimensional tolerances in the range of 3–4 microns.
- Materials: We work with alloy and non-alloy steels, stainless steel, brass, bronze, aluminum, and advanced engineering plastics such as POM, Delrin, and PEEK.
- Treatments: Full management of heat and surface treatments (case hardening, quenching, nitriding, anodizing) through certified partners.
Synergy between engineering and production
The advantage of an integrated technical department lies in the ability to design with a Design for Manufacturing (DfM) approach. Our engineers have in-depth knowledge of machine tools and workshop dynamics, allowing us to develop custom gears and gearboxes already optimized for production, reducing lead times, industrialization costs, and technical waste.
Our experience spans from avionics to medical and home automation. This cross-industry expertise enables us to apply proven best practices from critical sectors to every new project, delivering custom actuators and gearboxes that benefit from innovative and cross-functional technical solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions
A micro gear must be described by specifying all the parameters required for its correct manufacturing. In particular: module, number of teeth, pressure angle, profile type, face width, material, heat treatments, quality grade, and critical dimensional tolerances. A complete description eliminates ambiguity between designer and manufacturer and ensures that the final component meets the required performance.
Extremely tight tolerances are only useful if they provide a real functional benefit. In many cases, specifying unnecessary micrometric precision increases costs and lead times without improving system performance. Supplier support helps define tolerances that are truly effective.
A design compatible with standard tools and machines significantly reduces production start-up times. Non-standard geometries or special profiles require dedicated tooling, resulting in additional development and validation time.
Topping improves profile accuracy and tooth contact quality. Semi-topping offers a good balance between quality and tool life. No-topping reduces time and costs but limits final precision. The choice depends on the required quality grade and production volume.
A complete technical drawing, quantity, material, quality grade, any required treatments, and operating conditions are necessary. Clear information allows for a fast and accurate quotation.
Integrating design and production within a single partner provides a concrete competitive advantage, especially in precision mechanics and transmission systems.
When engineering and manufacturing operate under the same roof, a synergy is created that improves quality, lead times, and costs. Having a single point of contact ensures immediate alignment between design and manufacturing feasibility, reducing technical misunderstandings.
When designers have deep knowledge of production processes, they can select more efficient geometries, reduce unnecessary operations, optimize tolerances and materials, and improve cycle times and costs. The result is a product that is both technically sound and industrially efficient.
