GEARS for Mechanical Engineering

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 to be made every place a shaft turns! And in
American industry, that means virtually everywhere – from
a giant automobile manufacturing plant in the Midwest to a
small mom-and-pop bakery on the Rhode Island shore
