AGMA Member CompanySince 1946East Walpole, MA
Custom gears, sprockets, splines, shafts, timing pulleys and related power transmission components for machinery used throughout food and beverage production.
From ingredient handling and mixing to conveying, filling, capping, labeling and packaging, we manufacture components to your drawings and equipment specifications.
Components manufactured in East Walpole, Massachusetts since 1946.
A food or beverage line depends on hundreds of coordinated mechanical movements: conveyors advancing product, fillers indexing containers, mixers transferring torque and packaging machines synchronizing infeed, sealing and discharge.
Commercial Gear manufactures custom gears, sprockets, splines, timing pulleys and machined components for new machinery, established OEM designs, line maintenance and hard-to-source replacements—in steel, alloy or stainless steel as specified.
When one worn sprocket or pulley can stop a line, the replacement has to fit the first time. Components are made to your drawing, material and finish requirements.

Common questions about custom gears, sprockets and timing pulleys for food processing and packaging equipment.
Food-processing machinery can use spur, helical, bevel, worm and internal gears depending on the equipment design. Sprockets, timing pulleys, splines, shafts and rack-and-pinion components are also commonly used in conveying, processing and packaging systems.
Custom transmission components may be used in mixers, blenders, conveyors, bakery machinery, fillers, bottle and can lines, cappers, labelers, form-fill-seal machines, cartoners and specialized processing equipment.
Yes. Commercial Gear manufactures custom sprockets and also distributes U.S. Tsubaki power-transmission chains and sprockets. Custom components can be manufactured around chain pitch, tooth count, bore, keyway and hub requirements.
Yes. Commercial Gear manufactures custom timing and gear belt pulleys in multiple common tooth profiles and can produce custom belt widths and component dimensions.
Yes. Custom replacement components can be reviewed where drawings, specifications or other usable technical information are available. Matching the existing tooth geometry and mechanical interface is important for legacy equipment.
Commercial Gear's RFQ process accepts customer-specified materials including steel, alloy and stainless steel. The required material grade and any sanitary, corrosion-resistance or environmental requirements should be included with the drawing or quote request.
Component suitability depends on the specified material, surface treatment, lubrication environment, installation location and applicable regulatory or sanitary requirements. Customers should define those requirements in the drawing or RFQ so they can be reviewed for the specific application.
Components can be quoted to customer-defined material and processing requirements. Where washdown, moisture or cleaning chemicals are relevant, include those environmental conditions and the required material or finish specification with the RFQ.
Commercial Gear accepts requirements ranging from a single prototype or specialized component through longer production quantities.
Commercial Gear combines dedicated gear-cutting processes with CNC turning and milling, allowing shafts, hubs, gear blanks and related features to be incorporated into custom manufacturing requirements.
Provide the drawing where possible, together with gear specifications, material, critical dimensions, quantity, required secondary processes, equipment application and delivery requirement.
Commercial Gear works with OEMs and specialized machine builders and can also review individual replacement or short-run requirements, making its capabilities relevant to both equipment production and maintenance applications.
