CRANBERRY TWP, Pa. — October 15, 2019 — Hy-Tech Engineered Solutions is pleased to announce the acquisition of Blaz-Man Gear and Gear Products & Manufacturing; both Chicago based companies specializing in the manufacture and distribution of custom gears and power transmission gear products. The addition will triple Hy-Tech’s capacity in gear production, as well as bring new expertise to expand into more complex spiral and straight bevel gear design and manufacture.
“Aside from the advantages this brings to new and existing customers in terms of expanded gear product availability, additional gear design engineering know-how and improved responsiveness, we expect it to help lower costs across the board as the new economies of scale come into play” observes Doug Ciabotti, Hy-Tech’s president. “Adding Blaz-Man and Gear Products means we can better address the needs of dozens of industries for highly engineered gearing, design consulting and reverse engineering”.
“We’re most excited about our expanded capability to handle complex spiral, straight and hypoid bevel gearing applications which have traditionally been difficult to design and manufacture. Combining this bevel gear expertise with our dedicated production capacity for rush and breakdown requirements, as well as for “one-off” special orders, allows us to be a full-service partner to our customers, offering them complete gear solutions”.
The new companies will operate together with Hy-Tech’s current gear company, Quality Gear, forming a new “Power Transmission Division” in Punxsutawney, Pa.
