Without gears a car would not move. These components are not only used in the powertrain, but also in power steering systems, control elements, auxiliary drives (e.g. for the seat adjustment) and differentials – all of which are not possible without gears. Given the increasing importance of hybrid drives, the number of gears required is bound to rise even more. A wide range of materials is used in a car cover, from high-tensile steels to relatively soft plastics.

For the manufacture of diverse gears the KOEPFER K 300 hobbing machine offers a flexible solution. Various hobbing technologies can be used on diverse materials making the K 300 a modern universal production machine for every gear up to module 4.
