I dont have many hobbies because I work all the time. With no hobbies to talk about, I decided to introduce you to the world of manufacturing. After this brief lecture check out some of my favorite links located at the bottom of the page. Gearing Gearing has become a way of life for me. I have worked in gear coupling manufacturing for almost 10 years at The Falk Corporation, located in Auburn Alabama.
Gears come in many shapes and sizes.
There are external ring gears, flexable gears, internal gears, and standard ring gears. The largest gear produced was at the Milwaukee plant. It was over fourty feet in diameter. This massive hunk of metal was capable of producing 96,000,000 torque pounds. Click on the Gearing link to see more about this topic.
