American Gear Manufacturers Association
AGMA is a voluntary association of companies, consultants and academicians with a direct interest in the design,
manufacture, and application of gears and flexible couplings. AGMA was founded in 1916 by nine companies in
response to the market demand for standardized gear products; it remains a member-- and market--driven
organization to this day. AGMA provides a wide variety of services to the gear industry and its customers and
conducts numerous programs which support these services. Some of these services and programs are:
D STANDARDS: AGMA develops all U.S. gear related standards through an open process under the
authorization of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
D ISO PARTICIPATION: AGMA is Secretariat to TC60, the committee responsible for developing all
international gear standards. TC60 is an ISO (International Organization of Standardization) committee.
D MARKET REPORTS AND STATISTICS: AGMAs Operating Ratio Report, Wage & Benefit Survey, and
Monthly Market Trend Reports help you stay competitive by giving you up--to--date information on the gear
industry.
D THE MARKETING AND STATISTICAL COUNCILS enhance your competitiveness by sharing

information and by developing creative solutions to common industry problems.
D THE PUBLIC AFFAIRS COUNCIL gives you an active voice in Washington, promoting the gear industry to
our nations legislators and regulators.
D GEAR EXPO: This is the only trade show dedicated solely to the gear industry.
D TECHNICAL COMMITTEE MEETINGS are the core of the open AGMA standard writing process keeping
members abreast of new developments while ensuring that AGMA standards are kept current.
D THE AGMA TRAINING SCHOOL FOR GEAR MANUFACTURING uses current technology to offer
hands--on training in hobbing, shaping, and inspection. At the Gear School, operators learn how to
maximize their productivity. Enrollment is open to all.
D NEWS DIGEST, AGMAs quarterly newsletter, offers you timely, useful information you can use
immediately.
If you would like additional information about our programs, or on how to become a member of AGMA, please

The AGMA Foundation exists for your benefit. It
focuses only on the gear industry.
More specifically, it focuses on those opportunities you
might miss as you deal with the everyday demands of
gear manufacturing.
On your behalf, the Foundation explores the new ideas,
the outside--the--box approaches, and the cutting edge
technologies that could transform your future.
With your help, the AGMA Foundation can expand the
opportunities for the gear industry.
Become a partner with the AGMA Foundation, and help
us advance the World of Gearing!
