Expert precision manufacturing professionals since 1973
Since 1973, Carnes-Miller Gear has built a reputation on precision, reliability, and deep technical expertise in gear manufacturing and inspection. Founded during a pivotal era in American manufacturing, CMG has weathered economic storms—from the energy crisis of the 1970s through Covid-19—by staying committed to quality and customer satisfaction. Our team brings decades of specialized knowledge in gear tooling, equipment, nomenclature, and tolerancing, serving critical sectors including aerospace, defense, and medical industries. Operating from our dedicated 18,000-square-foot facility in Locust, NC, we've evolved from a gear shaping and hobbing specialist into a full-service precision manufacturing partner. Our inspection services reflect this heritage: meticulous attention to detail, comprehensive in-house capabilities, and an unwavering commitment to helping customers achieve optimal gear performance and reliability.
Gear inspection involves systematic dimensional measurement and verification of gear teeth, including tooth profile, pitch diameter, runout, concentricity, and surface finish. Using calibrated precision equipment, inspectors measure these parameters and compare them against specifications and AGMA quality standards. The process includes visual examination, dimensional gauging, surface quality analysis, and often metallurgical testing like nital-etch for heat treat verification. Comprehensive reports document all findings and verify compliance with specified tolerances.
