About Vogel Verzahntechnik
Vogel Verzahntechnik GmbH & Co. KG was founded in 1994 in the course of taking over the machine park of a former gear manufacturing company and manufactures gears, gearbox parts, shafts, internal gears, worm drives, sprockets and clutch components in Großbettlingen. The manufacturing spectrum includes turning and milling, gear hobbing, gear shaping, broaching, gear grinding (profile grinding and generating grinding), skive hobbing as well as superfinishing with surface depths down to Ra 0.04, complemented by assembly group mounting and joining by hot and cold shrink-fitting (cryogenic assembly with liquid nitrogen at -196 °C). Materials machined include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminium, plastics, brass and bronze — from single pieces to series production. With around 30 employees, 25 machines and two robot-supported automation solutions, approx. 800 t of metal are processed annually. Customers come from gearbox parts manufacturing, drive technology, mechanical engineering and the automotive supply industry. Quality is assured by a quality management system certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and an in-house measuring room.
