About
The American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) is a voluntary association of companies, consultants, and academicians with a direct interest in the design, manufacture, and application of gears, couplings and related power transmission components and equipment.
Founded in 1916, AGMA is a member and market-driven organization, conducting programs and providing services to the gear industry and its customers. AGMA member companies currently number more than 400 with over 7,000 professionals participating in programming. They include gear manufacturers and suppliers from the United States, Mexico, Canada and more than 30 other countries from around the world.
AGMA is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to write all U.S. standards on gearing. AGMA is also the Secretariat (Chairman) for Technical Committee 60 (TC 60) of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). TC 60 is the committee responsible for developing all international gearing standards.
In addition to the technical standards work, AGMA provides members with micro and macro-level industry reports, unparalleled networking events, expert-led, accredited education courses, advertising and marketing capabilities through association-owned publications (Gear Technology and Power Transmission Engineering), curated tours and tradeshow events, and emerging technology committees and white papers to help the industry grow.
