Congratulations to Atlanta Gear Works President Jack Conway on his election to the board of directors of the American Gear Manufacturers Association! AGMA board members serve a 3-year term providing fiduciary guidance and advancing industry standards. This important position is but one example of Atlanta Gear’s support of the most important organization in the gearing industry.
Our customers are keeping us so busy we’re proud to announce we’ve added 2 engineers and 15 machinists and assembly technicians to our team. As a result, we’ve added a much-needed second shift!
To continue our commitment to providing you with the quality and reliability you deserve, we’ve doubled our gear grinding capacity by adding a massive Kapp Niles Gear Profile Grinding Machine ZP 24.
We’re growing and have just hired our first Human Resources Specialist. Chelleigh Cuddy will apply her 15 years of HR experience to helping us be sure our employee programs are the best in the business.
Since a single failed gearbox can shut a plant down, the tangible downtime costs for a failed gearbox at a large manufacturer can be as much as $20 million per day.
