State-of-the-Gear-Industry Survey - Time's Running Out!


If you've already filled out our annual State-of-the-Gear-Industry survey, THANK YOU for your participation. But if you haven't, we still need your feedback to round out our results. Every year, we ask readers like you to help us better understand the trends of our industry. The survey covers the health of the gear manufacturing industry as well as trends in manufacturing and engineering. You can help make the results as complete as possible by participating.

The survey should take no more than 10 minutes, and all responses are kept completely anonymous. The State-of-the-Gear-Industry survey provides an extremely valuable resource for everyone involved in gear manufacturing. The results will be published in our January/February 2017 issue, so you'll be able to benchmark your company's performance against others in the industry. Please take the Survey.
