About Neugart
Neugart GmbH is a family-owned gearbox manufacturer founded in 1928 and headquartered in Kippenheim (Baden-Württemberg). The company produces ultra-precision planetary gearboxes in coaxial and angle designs, bevel and hypoid gearboxes, and matched pinion-and-rack systems based on a modular system with more than 80,000 standard variants and around 14 million possible product configurations. Manufacturing includes gear-cutting and machining processes down to backlash values of 1–28 arcminutes (depending on the product); for the food industry, gearboxes in Hygienic Design with FDA-approved materials and NSF-H1 lubricant are offered. Custom adaptations, design using the company's own Calculation Program (NCP), and a 24h/48h spare parts service round out the portfolio. Key industries are automation and robotics, packaging and food industry, machine tools, medical technology, printing technology, and intralogistics. With 781 employees (over 660 of them at headquarters), three plants in Kippenheim, and own subsidiaries in the USA, China, Italy, France, Turkey, Brazil, and Switzerland, the group generated revenue of 96.9 million euros in 2024.
