Facility Tour

Seattle is a delightful place and we invite you to visit us anytime. We are always excited to show off our facility which includes over 150,000 square feet of production area. We also have guest offices available for our customers so you can be as comfortable and productive as possible while away from your home base.

Steel Stock

We maintain a large inventory of gear steel in a variety of alloys and sizes for quick delivery and emergency requirements.

Steel Stock

Carburizing and through hardened steel bars are kept in stock up to 32" diameter. All materials are purchased to strict procurement specifications.

Sawing

Steel bars up to 32" diameter are cut to the desired length on our large band saw

CNC Turning

Extensive CNC turning capacity for a variety of configurations and sizes provides unique productivity. Large vertical boring mills can turn gear blanks up to 144" diameter.

Precision Gear Cutting

Precision gears can be cut on special machines to high accuracy requirements.

CNC Gear Cutting

We use modern CNC gear hobbing and shaping machines to efficiently and accurately cut external and internal gears.

Heat Treatment Verification

After case hardening, hardness profiles are verified and documented with an automated Struers hardness measuring system.

Large CNC Gear Grinding

Internal and external gears can be precision ground with tooth modifications up to 2.6 meters.

CNC Gear Grinding

Our state-of-the-art form grinding machines can routinely grind internal and external gears to AGMA Q-13 accuracy. On board inspection systems verify that customer requirements are met.

CNC Milling and Drilling

We offer a large selection of precision CNC milling and drilling capacity.

Unique Gear Cutting

With over 60 years of unusual gear projects, we have developed an extensive inventory of special fixtures and gear cutting tools.

Electrical Runnout Inspection

Gear sets with proximity probes undergo electrical runnout recording and correction.

CNC Gear Checking

Gears up to 2.4 meters can be checked and recorded on our large gear analyzer. Gear geometry can also be ascertained on used gears for reverse engineering.

Tooth Contact Checking

Gear tooth contact patterns are routinely checked in precision roll stands.

Turbo Compressor Gear Inspection

High speed gears are usually made in matched sets requiring precise tooth profile and thrust collar contact patterns.

Inspection

All items are 100% dimensionally inspected and documented per our ISO-9001 procedures. Gear tooth accuracies are independantly verified on special gear checking machines in our temperture controlled metrology lab.
