Cotta Sets New Standards in High-Performance Gearbox Manufacturing with Consistent Innovation and Zero-Defect Policy

Cotta continues to solidify our reputation as a preferred high-performance gearbox supplier by consistently improving our current line of products along with developing new innovative products. We systematically and comprehensively monitor the quality of all internal processes. First-piece inspection is conducted on every machining sequence, starting at the source to support our zero-defect policy, and then we assemble and test every transmission product we ship from our plant.
