Gears
Overview
Avion makes gear and drive products for some of the most demanding applications. Whether our drive products are for actuating the ailerons, rudder, or elevator on a commercial aircraft carrying hundreds of passengers, or for an un-manned robot changing a fuel cell bundle in a nuclear reactor, we supply the critical components that ensure failures will not occur and lives are not put at risk.
Avion supplies every component complete with full manufacturing traceability required by the aerospace and nuclear industries. We fully understand traceability and the importance of accuracy and consistency in the documentation of precision components.
Types of Drive Products we Manufacture Include:
Manufacturing Services
Our Gear and Drive Product services are broken down into the following 4 categories:
Our customers supply the drawings and all technical specifications, we supply complete parts to their assembly line
Our customers supply machined parts, we cut and certify the teeth only. (We certify to ANSI, AGMA, or DIN standards regularly).
Avion can help customers design or optimize existing design of gear and drive assemblies.
We can take customer samples and perform complete analysis of the gear or spline geometry and provide the technical data needed to replicate that sample. We can also take excessively worn or damaged samples with no technical data and use our reverse engineering expertise to make new parts.
Gear Sets are Tested and Certified for:
Gear Design, Engineering, And Manufacturing:
Gear Design
Avion provides design services to customers who need help in designing and/or specifying a drive system for their application. We can do this for single components or an entire system or sub-system. We provide design, analysis and drafting services, ranging from concept to design and manufacturing.
Engineering
We use the latest software technology, advanced tools, and highly experienced professionals, to help with generating concepts, helping the design process, resolving fit and functional issues, rapid prototyping, assembly and testing, and finally full-scale production roll out.
Manufacturing
Our solutions offering is comprehensive – gears to gearboxes and electro-mechanical actuation systems. We have the experience, skill and equipment to assess the design, manufacturability and operational expectations of the system.
