Our Lufkin Gears and Allen Gears brands bring a deep history of industry-leading technology to demanding high-speed mechanical-drive, turbo machinery, and marine-propulsion applications. They continually set the standard for design and manufacturing to meet or exceed the most stringent customer and industry specifications. Our designs include single helical and double helical gearing, and proprietary fluid-film bearing technology to ensure the highest performance and reliability. We use the highest quality materials with advanced processes including through-hardening or carburizing, and precision form-grinding of gear teeth to increase durability, power capability, and efficiency for the most demanding turbomachinery applications.
Compressors
Our Lufkin Gears technologies are use on offshore platforms, refineries, and petrochemical plants to drive axial, centrifugal, reciprocating, and screw compressors in various applications.
