Cotta has another high-speed gearbox in process for a test stand application that will be used in the aerospace industry. The housing for this gearbox is currently being machined on Cotta’s Milltronics HBM110XT.  The machine is ideal for this type of part, as it provides a large working table that can handle the heavy duty load capacity.

Gearbox Ratios, Torques & Speeds:

  • Ratios 1 : 8.36
  • Max Torque: 855 in-lb @ 27,239 RPM
  • Max Speed: 29,963 RPM

Low Speed Fuel Pump:

  • 1 : 2.61
  • Max Torque: 1,456 in lb @ 8,525 RPM
  • Max Speed 9,378 RPM

Main Fuel Pump: 

  • 1 : 11.00
  • Max Torque: 486 in lb @ 34,900 RPM
  • Max Speed: 38,390 RPM

Approximate Weight: 1,619 lbs

Cotta has designed and manufactured a diverse line of high-speed gearboxes that are used by some of the largest OEM companies in the world for numerous R&D and production test stand applications for automotive, aerospace, and industrial components.

Charles Cotta Revolutionized Automotive Industry

Charles Cotta is a name you might not recognize unless you know the “4X4”, a term used for four-wheel drive and four-wheel steering, a revolutionary idea that changed the automotive industry globally, inspired new methods of technological, mechanical ways of doing things.

Cotta, as far as is known, had no extended education, no engineering degree, but made all parts of the Cotta-mobile by hand, tooling and retooling, cutting and re-cutting. No “warehouse of parts” existed. Welding as we know it had yet to be developed. Charles Cotta, born and raised in Lanark, IL, was a self-taught genius in his field of expertise.
