Akron Gear & Engineering (AGE), a BDI sister company, is a one-stop source for your gearbox needs. We repair and refurbish all makes and models of gearboxes up to 25 tons, including but not limited to parallel shaft, worm, helical / bevel, spiral bevel, multiple input / output, in-line, and planetary.

AGE uses extensive oil analysis tools provided by Real Services, and a thorough evaluation of your drive is made possible with computer modeling.  With this information, we deliver extended product life to our customers, resulting in a lower total cost of operation.

Much more than a gear shop, Akron Gear supplies quality, fast repairs by trained engineers, designers and technicians experienced in the special workings of gearboxes, open gearing and general machining applications. All of our work undergoes extensive inspection and test procedures following reassembly.
