In 1986, Dr. Stepan V. Lunin has introduces a novel method - Direct Digital Simulation for gear design and development. Lunin’s method has been successfully applied for large spiral bevel gear design and manufacturing. General Motors, Delphi Automotive, DAWALL Gear, Volvo, New Venture Gear, Dekel Mano (Gildmeister), Overton Gear and Chrysler have used Lunin’s DDS method for developing advanced gear design and manufacturing methods.

Our technology is based on the integration of modern mathematical methods with commonly available manufacturing machines. While our tooth cutting process is different from the traditional tooth generating process, we can deliver the tooth form identical to the traditional Gleason or Klingelnberg tooth form. If the traditional tooth form is required, we can enhance the results by adding small modifications for improvement of the tooth contact and for reduction of the root stress. Similar enhancements of the tooth geometry would be very expensive, if not impossible, if the traditional gear generating process is used.
