When it comes to high-quality gear solutions in the UK, businesses across Northamptonshire rely on precision engineering expertise to deliver reliable power transmission products. At Schultech, we specialise in the design and manufacture of custom spur gear solutions for demanding industrial, automotive and aerospace applications.
As a trusted manufacturer serving Northampton and the wider UK market, we provide high-quality gear components built to the highest standards of performance and reliability.
Our facility serving Northamptonshire combines over 70 years of engineering knowledge with modern CNC and CAD technology. Every gear is produced using advanced materials and manufacturing processes to ensure durability, torque capacity and long-term reliability.
We support projects ranging from one-off prototypes and one-off solutions to high-volume batch production.
Whether it’s a one-off prototype or a high-volume transmission product, our consultative approach ensures each gear meets your exact specification.
Although this article focuses on spur gears, our capability extends far beyond a single gear type. We produce:
spur gears
helical gears
spur and helical gears combinations
straight bevel gears
spiral bevel gear designs
bevel gear assemblies
worm gears and worms and wheels
Each gear is manufactured using precision gear cutting processes, ensuring smooth engagement and efficient torque transfer.
Helical and bevel solutions are often selected where improved load distribution or directional change is required in a gearbox or transmission assembly.
We manufacture each custom gear on a basis to customer's drawings or sample specifications. Our engineering team works from a detailed drawing, 3D model or physical sample to recreate or improve existing gear sets.
Apple Gears manufacture custom gears on a supply model, meaning we can:
supply complete
supply complete or cut teeth-only
provide gears on a supply complete basis
deliver custom gears on a supply agreement
Apple Gears manufacture custom gears using a strict ISO-controlled system and in-house inspection procedures. This commitment to quality ensures every precision gear meets performance expectations.
A properly designed gear is critical to gearbox efficiency and overall transmission reliability. Our gear solutions are widely used in:
modular gearbox systems
automotive power transmission
aerospace assemblies
torque applications in industrial machinery
torque limiters and drive shafts
Each gear and shaft combination is carefully engineered to manage torque loads and reduce wear through proper lubrication and bearing alignment.
We also supply complete gears and gearboxes as part of broader power transmission solutions, including coupling systems partnered with R+W and Transpower Drives transmission products.
In addition to standard gear manufacturing, we produce:
splined shafts with internal splines
gear racks and rack systems
pinion assemblies
worms and wheels
bespoke bevel and helical configurations
plastic gear components where lightweight design is required
Every gear component is precision engineered using CNC gear cutting and finishing processes. Where required, we mill keyways, grind tooth profiles and optimise shaft interfaces for improved assembly performance.
Our precision engineering team follows strict ISO procedures to guarantee the highest standards. From prototype through batch production, each gear undergoes detailed inspection for:
tooth profile accuracy
surface finish
torque capacity
dimensional stability
This ensures consistent performance and reliability in demanding power transmission systems.
As a trusted gears Northampton supplier, we support manufacturers, car enthusiasts, and industrial clients across the UK. Whether producing a precision gear for a performance automotive model or supplying gear sets for aerospace transmission systems, we provide engineering services tailored to each client.
We understand that every gear application is unique. That is why we take a consultative approach to design and gear development — from concept through final assembly.
Every custom gear project begins with understanding the required torque, load cycles and environmental conditions. Our engineers analyse the full gearbox or transmission assembly to ensure compatibility between gear, shaft, coupling and bearing components.
We also work with premium suppliers such as Tandler for specialist gear solutions requiring advanced geometry or high torque resistance.
From simple spur configurations to complex spiral bevel and worm assemblies, our design capability ensures optimal performance.
