Serving the Americas and beyond
Lufkin, Texas
Our flagship technologies were developed here nearly a century ago. Today, it designs and manufactures new units, and is our Center of Excellence for repair, remanufacturing, and services— including drop-in replacements and upgrades for all power transmission needs.
Manufacturing and service
Fougerolles, France
This advanced facility has been manufacturing high-speed and low-speed gears as well as couplings since 1965. The site also provides global design support, and repair services to customers in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. We recently expanded its capabilities to manufacture our Allen Gears epicyclic gearboxes, and added machining capabilities and test stands, including one with a 2.5 MW driver.
Epicyclic design and field service
Pershore, UK
At our Allen Gears Epicyclic Design and Field Service Center of Excellence, the engineering team designs bespoke gearboxes to the latest standards, and provides upgrades and operational improvements to the existing epicyclic designs and installed fleet. The field service team travels worldwide both on and offshore to support customers with routine overhauls, fitting of replacement parts, gear breakdowns, and fault finding on our own units as well as gears by other OEMs.
