The manufacturing of master gears is the ultimate combination of science and artisan skills and has been the birthright of the finest engineers since industrialisation demanded an exceptional standard against which to measure the fruits of mass manufacturing.

A wide range of spur and helical master gears for composite testing of production components is designed and manufactured at Frenco to all major standards including BS, AGMA and DIN, and backed by UKAS certification.
The master gear designs generally follow basic gear proportions but can be originated to suit specific applications using the customer’s component data.

Master gears are produced in a wide range of materials from normal and hardened tool steel for short production runs and prototypes through to sintered HSS with Cobalt for high frequency use and advanced wear resistance. Specialist coatings can also be applied by chemical vapour disposition to further increase resistance to wear and corrosion.
