UNSPSC 23242206: Gear shaving machine

Gear shaving uses a cutter in the exact shape of the finished tooth profile and removes small amounts of metal from the gear teeth.

UNSPSC 23242206 Gear shaving machine is a Commodity code that covers precision machine tools used to shape and finish gear teeth. State and local governments purchase gear shaving machines and related equipment primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and institutional procurement channels. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show minimal alignment with its nominal scope — a Sourcewell cooperative RFP for law enforcement equipment (Solicitation #061626, due June 16, 2026) and a University of Wisconsin Stevens Point IFB for paper machine stock tank upgrades (Solicitation #2026STPALL01275RFB, due April 16, 2026) do not represent gear shaving work. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

Issuing bodies across the visible opportunities span multi-jurisdictional cooperatives and higher-education institutions, but neither procurement targets gear shaving equipment or services. Sourcewell's framework encompasses multiple Washington counties and thousands of public entities nationwide, while the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point operates independently. Geographic activity is limited to Washington state (Sourcewell members including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties) and Wisconsin (Stevens Point). No representative recent solicitations for gear shaving machines, related machine tools, or comparable industrial equipment are present in the source material.
