Gleason’s Gear Trainer Webinar Series will achieve a significant milestone on September 24th with the presentation of its 100th webinar: “State-of-the-Art Gear Shaping.” Since the first Home Trainer Webinars began streaming in March 2020 due to strict COVID-19 conditions, over 10,000 participants have attended Gleason's Home and Gear Trainer Webinar Series. Direct feedback from participants praises the educational value of information presented and comments on how they expect to translate this learning experience into improved designs, manufacturing and inspection of gears and driveline solutions within their respective organizations.

The "State-of-the-Art Gear Shaping" Webinar deals with the flexible production of different batch sizes and gear types, such as external and internal gears or special workpiece geometries with interfering contours. Gleason will demonstrate typical applications for the gear shaping process and present the latest developments to improve productivity and bring simple and flexible manufacturing to your gear production. 

This 100th webinar also marks the start of the next series of Gear Trainer Webinars: 10 new webinars will be presented live on Thursdays, leading up to the winter holidays. In these webinars, Gleason will continue to cover current topics relating to gear technology: carbide tools, plastic gears, Power Skiving, hard fine machining, measuring technology with and without laser, gear design, new gear concepts for e-drive systems, automation and much more.
