Helios Gear Products has opened registration for the 2025 Helios Gear Schools, featuring programs in three locations across the United States.
These intensive courses are designed to provide both entry-level and experienced industry professionals with a comprehensive understanding of gear manufacturing. The cities are:
- Charlotte, North Carolina: February 11–12 (seminar course).
- Anaheim, California: February 19–20 (seminar course).
- Chicago, Illinois: May 13–15 (flagship full course).
The flagship Chicago program offers a deep dive into gear manufacturing, including cutting, finishing, and final inspection. In addition to classroom instruction, participants will benefit from hands-on machine demonstrations at Helios Gear Products and plant tours at industry leaders such as Forest City Gear and Overton Chicago Gear.
Helios Gear Schools are ideal for manufacturing management, engineers, supervisors, set-up technicians, operators, and quality control personnel. Class sizes are intentionally kept small to ensure an interactive and engaging learning experience. Past attendees have praised the program as a “very good entry-level course,” noting its interactivity and the value of the facility tours. For 2025, Helios Gear Products is partnering with industry experts from both Helios and Kapp Niles to offer participants diverse perspectives and real-world operational insights.
Helios Gear Products specializes in the parallel axis gear industry, offering machines, consumable tools, and automation systems for gear hobbing, worm and thread milling, shaping, power skiving, and deburring and chamfering. An expert team also offers cutting tool and abrasive tool technical support, including engineering, service, and comprehensive gear manufacturing consultation.
