primeGear

A customised and integrated service to realise unmatched gear cutting tool performance

primeGear

Stable manufacturing processes and high cost savings for gear manufacturers.

Cutting tools for gear components are evermore stressed. With higher cutting speeds and extended operating time, automotive manufacturers and suppliers try to hold against the pressure on costs in production. Obviously, tolerances still need to be adhered too.

With primeGear it is possible to reduce manufacturing costs for gearing components by up to 40%, while providing the same or even better quality. This is possible due to Oerlikon Balzers’ Know-How of 70 years as leading supplier for surface solutions, and the integral concept of primeGear.
