Tracey Gear & Precision Shaft is a leader in custom-made shaft and gear manufacturing. We make parts for various applications in different sectors. Our extensive industry knowledge lets us understand what our customers need, allowing us to achieve the best results.

Our facility is fully equipped with the latest technology and machines to ensure that we meet your standards. We have a range of capabilities to meet or exceed your specific needs and requirements, allowing us to process your orders with rapid turnarounds.

The Main Services We Offer

Through our expert manufacturing services, we can achieve results that are second to none. Our manufacturing capabilities also undergo stringent quality control that ensures the products we create adhere to industry standards and your specific requirements.

Thread Grinding Services

One of the most precise methods of generating a thread is thread grinding. In this process, CNC equipment controls the grinding wheel’s shape and movement to achieve the desired results. We have an entire division dedicated to our thread grinding services. We have cutting-edge equipment and technology operated by our expert personnel.

Thanks to our years of expertise and skills in this method, we can work on small and large-scale projects without delays. We aim to meet your most critical requirements to ensure they are completed to the highest quality. Our thread grinding services are also done with precision and accuracy so that you can count on us for superior results.

Parts produced through thread grinding:

  • Worm shafts
  • Worms
  • ACME threads, including multiple start ACME
  • Threaded shafts

We are capable of thread grinding multiple grades of steels, both hardened and unhardened.

CNC Gear Cutting Services

Our CNC precision gear manufacturing services allow us to manufacture gears for virtually any requirement in various industries. CNC gear cutting is a method where the computer controls the cutting process to achieve precision gears in multiple sizes, materials, and configurations. Our large inventory of cutting tools allows us to cut most standard pitch gears, both Imperial and Metric.

Our experienced staff, paired with our complete line of equipment, allows us to work on both large and small-scale projects with the same degree of accuracy. We also use different materials for our CNC gear-cutting services, such as alloy steels, bronzes, aluminum, etc.

The manufacturing method we use will depend on the type of gear being produced. Fortunately, we use different gear-cutting processes to ensure that we can achieve your desired results.

CNC Turning & Milling

We offer full-service or standalone CNC turning and milling services for precision parts and components. We have vertical machining and high-capacity turning centers, which allow us to program the tools according to customer requirements while allowing us to produce high-quality and extremely accurate finished products.

We can perform multiple machining operations from a single set-up. This allows us to make your parts accurately and quickly. 

Our CNC milling centers have multi-point cutting tools, which effortlessly remove material from the workpiece. CNC turning employs single-point cutting tools, primarily to remove materials from the workpiece circumference until the desired diameter is achieved. These produce parts with internal and external features.

Benefits of CNC machining:

  • Produce high-precision and accurate, simple parts
  • Cost-effective in completing one-off or medium-volume runs
  • Programs are easily stored and modified
  • A higher degree of automation
  • Longer tool life
  • Mass-production of products

CNC Grinding Services

We offer CNC grinding services where an automated grinding machine is used to refine the surfaces of a product by removing excess materials on the product using grinding wheels.

Our expert staff can meet any strict requirements due to our background and experience, and we can deliver precise results quickly.

Finishing process we specialize in:

  • Surface grinding: This process is used to ensure flatness of a surface and/or parallelism between surfaces. Surface grinding also allows the machinist to hold tight tolerances and provide high quality surface finishes.
  • Cylindrical grinding: During the cylindrical grinding process, the cylinder rotates opposite the grinding wheel allowing the machine to remove material from the outside diameters of a part. Cylindrical grinding provides tight tolerances and high quality surface finishes.
  • Internal grinding & honing: In these grinding methods, the machinery is able to grind internal features such as bores and counterbores. Both processes produce high quality surface finishes and tight tolerances
  • Polishing: Polishing is a finishing process that smooths a workpiece’s surface, leading to a smoother and brighter finish.

Broaching Services

A broach is one of the most cost-effective ways of removing materials for keyways, splines, and other internal shapes. This process applies to different types of materials, making it an exceptional machining method.

Here are the different methods we provide:

  • Pull broaching
  • Push broaching
  • EDM

We can broach parts made from the following materials:

  • Metals of all grades with less than 33 Rc hardness
  • Phenolics
  • Plastics
  • Bronzes

We have a wide variety of broaches including multiple keyway broaches ranging from 3/16” to 1-¾”. We also have broaches for involute and straight sided splines, squares, hexes, and other shapes.
