Broaching and Keyseating

Broaching and keyseating are methods used to create keyways, splines, and other features in the internal diameter or bore of a gear. Keys and keyways or splines are used on gear IDs along with keyslots or splines on associated shafts. This prevents the gear from rotating on the shaft, allowing for greater torque transmission.

China Gear Motions uses state-of-the-art horizontal and vertical broaching machines and keyseaters to ensure quality and precision on every gear for low to high volume runs. Contact us to speak to one of our sales engineers about how we can help with your next project.
