Gleason Presents Next-Level Gear Manufacturing Technologies at AMB 2026
August 2026, Rochester, New York (USA)
Gleason cordially invites customers to visit booth 5B41 in Hall 5 at AMB 2026 in Stuttgart, Germany, September 15–19, 2026. The focus will be on the latest solutions for gear design, manufacturing and inspection, complemented by the Gleason Digital Ecosystem. On-site experts will advise visitors on individual applications and demonstrate how productivity, quality and process reliability can be improved sustainably.
KISSsoft Release 2026 – Gear Design at System Level
KISSsoft® Release 2026 offers the design and optimization of gears and transmissions, complemented by integrated system-level analysis. New features include flexibly configurable maps, support for REXS V1.7, new hob types, updated calculations for plastic gears and hydrodynamic plain bearings, as well as new modules for the design of hobbing and profile milling processes. Visitors can experience the new features firsthand and discuss trial licensing options directly with KISSsoft experts.
Intra SFTX – 100 Percent Inspection at Production Speed
The Intra® SFTX double-spindle single-flank testing system is designed for the rapid inspection of individual and compound external gears, including automotive EV gears, rotor and input shafts, intermediate assemblies in various configurations, final-drive output gears, and differentials. The system enables 100% inline inspection using TA Torsional Acceleration Testing and TE Transmission Error Analysis, with real-time process control. The SFTX can be supplied with tailored automation or seamlessly integrated into existing automation systems.
CRITERION Analysis Software for Single and Double Flank Testing
CRITERION Analysis Software is part of the Intra systems for single and double flank testing. It supports part verification, process monitoring and quality management, compares measurement results with target specifications, monitors production processes using statistical process control (SPC), and identifies deviations at an early stage. Stored measurement data also ensures complete traceability and provides a sound basis for process optimization.
175GMS nano – Next-Generation Metrology
The 175GMS® nano Gear Metrology System measures surfaces at the submicron level using skidless probe technology. Advanced software functions analyze waviness in profile and lead and evaluate gear noise behavior, including Advanced Waviness Analysis and KTEPS. Combined with integrated cobot loading and the Gleason Closed Loop System, the machine becomes a key element of highly automated lights-out production concepts.
Functional Gauges and Electronic Measuring Systems
Gleason will present a comprehensive portfolio of functional gauges, master gears, variable spline gauges, go/no-go rings and plugs, as well as setting and calibration masters. The offering is complemented by engineering services, calibration options, coatings and custom-designed setting masters. These solutions support robust, user-friendly quality control for a wide variety of gear and spline applications.
QFS Quick Flex System – Modular Workholding for Part Families
With the new QFS Quick Flex System, Gleason presents a flexible and economical workholding solution for part families. The portfolio is complemented by modern hydraulic and mechanical workholding systems for productive machining processes, as well as LeCount® expanding mandrels for measurement and inspection tasks. Customized versions can be tailored precisely to specific workpiece and process requirements.
Dressing Tools – Optimization Down to the Last Micrometer
Gleason dressing tools for grinding and honing applications unlock additional potential in quality, tool life and cost efficiency. The tooling solutions support stable hard-finishing processes, higher productivity and consistently excellent results. At AMB, Gleason experts will advise visitors on specific applications and individual optimization opportunities.
Power Skiving Tools for High Performance and Long Tool Life
Gleason HSS and carbide power skiving tools combine high productivity with long tool life. They are available for all power skiving machines and machining centers with integrated power skiving capability and can be tailored to a wide range of gear manufacturing applications and production requirements.
Coniflex Pro for Straight Bevel and Differential Gears
The Coniflex® Pro Design and Manufacturing System enables the cost-effective production of strong, quiet straight bevel gears. The technology is particularly well suited for high-performance differential applications in electric, internal combustion engine, and hybrid powertrains for passenger cars, trucks, buses, and off-highway vehicles.
Hobs and Milling Cutters from Fine to Coarse Pitch
Gleason offers a complete range of HSS and carbide hobs and milling cutters from fine to coarse pitch. The tools cover applications in the automotive industry and general mechanical engineering and are suitable for manufacturing gears, splines, chain sprockets, pulleys and worm wheels. The tools are manufactured in Europe by Gleason Cutting Tools.
Gleason Digital Solutions for Data-Driven Manufacturing
Gleason Digital Solutions (GDS) connect manufacturing processes in a data-driven ecosystem. Fingerprint Diagnostics supports proactive condition assessment, Process Monitoring supervises processes in real time, and Tool Management optimizes the use of production resources. The PMA Preventive Maintenance Assistant structures preventive maintenance activities. All applications are consolidated on the GEMS® platform, creating the foundation for higher equipment availability, stable part quality and AI-supported manufacturing strategies.
