Hy-Tech acquires Jackson Gear

Hy-Tech Engineered Solutions and Power Transmission Group (PTG) announced the acquisition of Jackson Gear Company of Glenshaw PA, which specializes in the engineering, manufacture and sales of larger gears and shafts. This should double PTG’s capacity in overall production, as it broadens existing product lines, deepens engineering expertise, and improves lead times.

“The ability to provide gears and spur gears up to 72” Maximum Pitch Diameter will be a huge benefit,” observes Doug Ciabotti, Hy-Tech’s President. “Aside from the advantages this brings to new and existing customers in terms of larger gear product availability and additional gear and shaft design engineering know-how, customers can expect it to help address issues of cost and supply chain problems across the board.”
