MaxTorque LLC is founded on the concept that a superiorly designed, highly efficient gearbox product line that uses 21st century sourcing and manufacturing approaches will have a significant advantage in the marketplace. Their patented AutoLock technology allows them to offer worm gear solutions with efficiencies approaching 70%, yet still have the self-locking characteristics of conventional gearboxes. Additionally, they design their products to allow for extreme flexibility in valve and actuator coupling arrangements with a minimum of additional work required for adaptation. MaxTorque's primary focus is on supplying gearboxes and related products to the performance valve industry with sizes ranging from 1,000 to 1,000,000 ft/lbs of output torque. MaxTorque gears are designed to be utilized in motorized and manual applications and offer significant advantages for both. Their novel design and manufacturing approach allows MaxTorque products to be quickly modified to their partner's specifications even those with special requirements.
