Fall Technical Meeting Papers Now Available in AGMA Store
The American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) announces that the twenty-three technical papers presented earlier this month at the 2016 Fall Technical Meeting (FTM) are now available for purchase in the AGMA store. The FTM was held October 2–4 in Pittsburgh, PA. It marked the 100th year that technical papers were presented to AGMA members. Attendees from all across the globe gathered for presentations in five areas of study:
- Session 1 – Manufacturing, Inspection, and Quality Control
- Session 2 – Materials & Heat Treatment
- Session 3 – Application and Design & Rating
- Session 4 – Efficiency, Lubrication, Noise, and Vibration
- Session 5 – Gear Wear & Failure
The papers that were presented at the FTM went through a rigorous peer-review process to be selected for presentation at the FTM.

About AGMA
The American Gear Manufacturers Association 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. The members include gear manufacturers from the United States, Mexico, and Canada, as well as gearing interests from more than 30 countries around the world. AGMA is accredited by the American National Standards Institute as the accredited national standards development body for gear related standards. AGMA is also the Secretary for Technical Committee 60 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) TC 60 is the committee responsible for developing all international gearing standards. In addition to holding the position of Secretary, AGMA convenes the active ISO Working Groups related to gear accuracy, gear terminology and notations, and cutting tools.
