Dathan have developed world leading expertise and technology in reverse engineering, which allows us to design and manufacture gear cutting tools based on drawings of new gears or used parts.
Our technical department undertake accurate measurement of parts or calculate measurements from product information supplied, before using our bespoke software system to produce drawings of the tools needed to make them for customer approval. We can then make prototypes and tweak the final designs to ensure you have the right tools to manufacture your gear components.
Our technical and inspection teams have successfully followed this process on projects to make everything from tools to manufacture innovative new gears for F1 cars, aircraft and road vehicles to replacement parts for a 100-year-old traction engine. This service is available to companies around the world.
