Lufkin and Allen Gears, Now Backed by GE
With the best expertise behind you, anything’s possible.
Timing is everything.
When a customer in the marine industry needed a better gear box solution—and fast— Lufkin was there. Together, we worked to custom engineer a new gear box that would repower a vessel using its existing hull structure—maximizing performance while meeting the company’s unique needs. Cultivating relationships and creating design solutions that work harder for our customers—that’s how we make more possible.

Quality and Innovation:
Making what’s possible, real—together.
Research
Innovation is at the core of everything we do. We’re always seeking better ways to deliver the best possible results for our customers—with improved materials, innovative designs and more. And as a part of GE, we have access to world-renowned Global Research Centers where scientists are working to solve complex and diverse challenges, creating better solutions for you every day.
Expertise that powers innovation, quality and performance—it’s what’s possible when you partner with Lufkin Power Transmission.
Process integration
Our supply chain philosophy is embedded into every step of our design and manufacturing process. From project inception to completion, we employ world-class advanced manufacturing technology and practices, adhering to strict quality standards that allow us to use the very latest thinking and innovations on every gear drive we touch.
Certification
We pride ourselves on our unwavering commitment to quality and excellence in product and service delivery. We are ISO 9001 Certified, and our engineers— some of the brightest minds in the industry—work tirelessly to maintain a consistent standard of excellence throughout every phase of the process. From product design, to development, to production and beyond, you can count on us to deliver quality, reliability and performance at every turn.
Inspection and testing
With proven practices, and tried and true testing parameters, we ensure that every gear box that leaves our shop, or enters for repairs, is tested extensively and will perform optimally. Before shipment, each gear drive is thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure compliance with your specifications—and with industry standards, including API, AGMA, ISO and DIN. Whatever it takes to deliver manufacturing excellence, every time.
Failure is not an option.
When a leading oil and gas company needed to find a way to make it work—no matter what—Lufkin was there. We were able to deliver a 50,000 horsepower gear box in time for a scheduled maintenance outage. And we made it happen in one-third of the time that it typically takes—empowering our customer to avoid costly downtime and achieve their performance goals. That’s the value of expertise that powers possible.
