I'd like to invite you to come visit us at
Motion+Power Technology Expo. The show takes place in October at Cobo Center in Detroit, and we'll be there in booth #3826.
If you are involved in the acquisition of technology (whether your direct role is machine
design, maintenance, purchasing or management), trade shows still provide one of the best
ways to evaluate options, learn about the latest technology and find solutions to problems.
The American Gear Manufacturers Association has evolved its trade show.
What was formerly Gear Expo is now the Motion + Power Technology Expo
(MPT Expo), an event intended to represent the entire motion and power
transmission supply chain. As part of the expansion of the show’s scope,
AGMA has partnered with the NFPA (National Fluid Power Association) to
include a fluid power pavilion and additional educational sessions.
The following recap looks at some of the exhibitors from Gear Expo that manufacture
mechanical power transmission components
or provide resources for these components.
Most of you who read this magazine have a close relationship with gears and gear drives. According to our surveys, 75% of you recommend, specify or buy them. It's a shame, then, that the majority of you will
miss Gear Expo (Oct. 24-26 in Columbus, OH) this year.
The season of harvest is upon us. And I don't mean crops, although here in the U.S. Midwest, there's plenty of that going on, too. No, what I mean is knowledge, because in addition to being the end of the growing season, the transition between summer and fall also marks the busiest time of year when it comes to trade shows, conferences and industry gatherings.
Gear Expo 2015 takes place October 20–22 in Detroit. If you haven’t already made plans to attend the show, you might be might be missing out on a great chance to learn more about gears, find new potential suppliers and network with your peers.
Last month's Gear Expo in Indianapolis provided a great opportunity to meet potential suppliers of mechanical power transmission components -- mostly gears and gear drives, of course, but also a smattering of suppliers of bearings and motors as well.
If you’re reading this magazine, there's a good chance you're somehow involved in the design, specification or purchase of gears or geared products. As such, I urge you to make plans now to attend Gear Expo in Indianapolis, September 17-19
What would Gear Expo be without gear manufacturers? While it is useful and indeed necessary to keep abreast of the new machinery out there that will be front-and-center at the show, it is of equal import to check out the finished product - GEARS.
There are no alchemists at the California Institute of Technology, but
a team of research scientists at the
Pasadena-based institution is doing
some pretty remarkable things "transforming something common into
something special."
This article is designed to help describe the selection process of a reducer to be used in the parcel handling industry. It will go over the different applications for which gearboxes are used throughout parcel handling facilities such as UPS, FedEx and DHL.
