About Alfred Kaufmann GmbH
Alfred Kaufmann GmbH from Erlensee (Langendiebach) was a supplier specialized in gear technology for the drive engineering industry. The company manufactured custom gears and drive elements according to customer drawings or sample parts – as individual components or in series. Particular expertise lay in bevel gear manufacturing with straight and helical flanks as well as spiral and skew gearing, especially Klingelnberg-Palloid and Zyklo-Palloid gearings (also lapped). The manufacturing spectrum ranged from partial machining of customer-supplied raw materials including gear grinding after hardening to complete manufacturing with sawing, turning, drilling and heat treatment outsourced to third parties. Quality assurance was carried out centrally in a climate-controlled room on modern measuring machines with printed documentation. The operation was closed on 31.10.2019.
