Gear Motions, Inc.
At Gear Motions, gear grinding isn’t just a capability – it’s our specialty. It all began in 1969, with the purchase of our first gear grinding machine. Today, over 50 years later, Gear Motions is one of the premier precision gear manufacturing companies in the United States, thanks to a series of acquisitions, equipment investments and comprehensive training programs. Most recently, we added a trio of ultramodern gear grinding systems from Reishauer, two model RZ260s and one RZ550, all equipped with advanced robotic automation systems from Felsomat. Paired with multi-pallet automation, these high-performance grinders have greatly improved gear grinding operations and efficiency at our Syracuse and Buffalo, New York facilities. In fact, the RZ260s feature a twin work spindle platform – further increasing productivity by minimizing part exchange wait time. Other new capabilities include super finishing and polish grinding on parts ranging from 0.5 to 21.7 inches in diameter and the ability to accommodate a variety of part types, like spur gears, helical gears and assemblies. In short, Gear Motions has taken our precision gear grinding to the next level. Now, see how we can do the same for your next project. Whether you need gears manufactured complete, or require gear grind only, you can count on Gear Motions for the highest-quality products, equipment and service in the industry. Contact us today!

Felsomat Automation System Pallet Change - Gear Motions
One of Gear Motions’ latest acquisitions is the new Reishauer RZ260 twin-spindle gear grinder with integrated Felsomat multi-pallet automation system. Each pallet can be configured for up to 81 parts per pallet. The system is highly configurable, accepting gears up to 10” and shafts or assemblies (shown) in horizontal or vertical orientations. By utilizing an ‘over-under’ conveyor design the system minimizes the footprint required to run medium to high volume lots. Combined with the Reishauer’s 2 work spindles, this system has significantly increased productivity and walk-away time, allowing the operators more time to perform value-added tasks. Gear Motions has over a century of gear manufacturing experience, and we continually make investments in the latest gear grinding technology. This combination ensures we are able to produce high precision, high quality, custom ground gears that adhere to tight customer specifications.

Check out this demonstration of Kinatech, the new, non-backdriveable gear system from Gear Motions, at Motion + Power Technology Expo 2019. Steve Kochan explains: "Watch what happens when I disconnect the drive motor from the drive line. I disconnect the motor, and it stops, and it holds the load, and it will not back drive."

Introducing Kinatech: Non-Backdriveable Gearbox Technology
Gear Motions is the proud owner of a new fiber laser marking machine which was recently installed at its Nixon Gear Division in Syracuse, NY. The Beamer Laser Systems Model FL53 uses a 50 watt high powered LED laser to mark products quickly and safely. The machine offers fast cycle times and a wide range of marking intensities. It has a 12.5" x 26" total marking field, and can accommodate a part up to 3.5’ long with the side panels attached, and even larger parts when the panels are removed. An optional 5C collet indexer was also purchased for radial marking of shaft-type parts. This is the first time that Gear Motions has been able to offer laser marking as a manufacturing service. Previously, operations such as dot peening and engraving were used as a method of marking parts for customers. Laser marking produces a higher quality mark with a better visual appearance, which is particularly desirable for customers that may resell their gears at retail. It can also provide a more data-dense marking solution, via 2D bar codes, QR codes, etc. for those customers that require it. Gear Motions is now able to meet the laser marking requirements of its existing customers without sending to an outside vendor. This will streamline the entire process and make complete gear manufacturing even quicker and more efficient. The company can now also offer this value-add service to attract new business from customers that require laser marking on their precision made gears, and may also consider laser mark only business in the future.
