About ZZ-DriveTech
ZZ-DriveTech GmbH, based in Waghäusel near Karlsruhe, specialises in the manufacture of gearing components and mechanical gearboxes. Its core competence is spiral bevel gear sets produced by the Klingelnberg method (Palloid, Zyklo-Palloid, HPG-S), ground Hirth serrations, and planar and spatial cams (globoid, cylindrical and radial cams), which are milled, hard-milled or ground. On this basis, the company manufactures bevel gearboxes (ZZ-Universal-Line), servo gearboxes (ZZ-Servoline), globoid and disc cam gearboxes, rotary indexing tables and lifting spindle gearboxes. Materials used include case-hardening, nitriding and quenched and tempered steels as well as plastics, aluminium for housings and flanges, and cast iron for gearbox housings; the value chain also includes heat treatment, shot peening, coating and assembly. The products are used, among other things, in machine tools, textile and printing machines, commercial vehicles, automation technology and plant engineering. The company is a member of the CT GROUP.
