Established in Charlestown, Massachusetts Boston Gear was founded by none other than the man who invented the calculator - George Grant. Grant headed the business from 1877 to 1891, when it was sold to Frank Burgess, a businessman with one overriding goal: to provide accuracy, economy, and despatch, or, in today’s marketing vernacular, quality, price, and service - and indeed, those are the hallmarks upon which Boston Gear was built. Why a comprehensive course about power transmission? For two very good reasons: First, the more you know about power transmission, the more you’ll be able to help your customers select the right products for their applications. Second, there's a potential sale. | GEAROLOGY TABLE of CONTENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1 Introduction to Power Motion Chapter 2 Spur Gears .2-1 Chapter 3 Helical Chapter 4 Worm and Worm Chapter 5 Bevel and Miter Chapter 6 700 Series Worm Gear Speed Reducers .6-1 Chapter 7 800 Series Helical Speed Reducers .7-1 Chapter 8 Introduction to Chapter 9 AC Inverters .9-1 Chapter 10 Centric Overload Release Clutches .10-1 GEAROLOGY 1-1 INTRODUCTION to pOwermOtion products INTRODUCTION
