In a recent press release Arrow Gear Company–a global provider of high precision gearing that is based in Downers Grove, Illinois–announced that it now offers a full line of ground tooth spiral bevel gears from stock. In view of the fact that this line is comprised of 57 combinations of ground tooth spiral bevel gears, which can be modified to fit customer applications, Arrow Gear is positioned as the only manufacturer in the world to offer such a product line. The availability of these products promise to assist manufacturers of power transmission systems with a low cost solution for prototype development and low volume production. Key benefits of Arrow’s stock gear product line include:

  • Cost savings of more than 50 percent
  • Delivery in days, not several months
  • Contact pattern can be modified to meet customer gearbox deflection requirements
  • Up to 16 inches in diameter

    As an alternative to custom gears–which can cost tens of thousands of dollars to design, develop, and produce–Arrow’s stock gear line provides dramatic cost savings for designers of power transmission systems. And to offer additional production flexibility, Arrow’s engineers are available to assist in the modification of stock gears to match the customer’s specific requirements.

    "Our stock gear product line is unique for several reasons," according to James J. Cervinka, the company’s CEO and chairman of the board. "First, no one else in the world offers stock ground tooth spiral bevel gears in the variety that we do. Secondly, our engineers are available to assist with modifications to the contact pattern and other physical attributes to meet the customer’s specific requirements. Finally, by using our stock gears, customers can save a great deal of expense. In view of the brutal global competition that many companies are now facing, we feel that our product line of stock gears can serve as a powerful resource for a manufacturer’s competitive posture."

    Founded by Cervinka in 1947, Arrow Gear provides a wide variety of loose gearing and complete gearboxes for commercial and aerospace customers. Currently, Arrow Gear produces more loose gearing for jet engine applications than any other gear company in the world.
