Continually advancing technology opens more opportunities for your product line
No other U.S. manufacturer is better equipped and staffed to produce your high-precision small to large gears than Schafer Gear Works South Bend, Ind. and Roscoe, Ill. plants.
At the South Bend, Ind. facility, you can fabricate better performing gears using CNC precision-critical machines and state-of-the-art CNC or Swiss-style lathes.
The Roscoe, Ill., plant, which is equipped to produce smaller volumes of large gears, recently invested in a Taiyo Koki CNC I.D.-O.D. grinder, Gleason 400H hobber and P600/800 ES shaping machine. This gives us greater flexibility and accuracy to meet whatever large gear challenge you send our way.
