About Carson Manufacturing Inc
Carson Manufacturing operates from Carson City, Nevada, where it was founded in 1986. The family-owned business traces its roots to Eddie Capps, who purchased the company with his wife Barbara; their daughter Delores Stacy now serves as vice president and her son Kenny Penn as sales engineer. In 1996, the three-generation team introduced a breakthrough redesign that replaced the traditional housing with a bearing holder, creating concentric force alignment that became an industry standard. The company produces planetary gearheads across five product lines—Precision, Eliminator, 'S', Right Angle, and fully custom units—with over 231 standard models and ratios up to 10,000:1. An internal R&D division develops and strenuously tests every design under varied conditions. Standard gearheads ship within two days; custom designs with set parameters are delivered in a week. All manufacturing is performed in-house in the United States. Customers span medical device makers using gearheads for cancer detection, paper manufacturers improving production equipment, aerospace programs such as Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, motion-control specialists like Servo Systems Co., HVAC firms including MAS HVAC, and automation integrators such as In-Position Technologies. The client base ranges from university research labs to industrial OEMs. Carson Manufacturing was built on the premise that custom gearhead engineering should not carry a design fee. The firm’s differentiators include free custom design, rigorous in-house testing, a commitment to on-time and on-budget delivery, and a 100% U.S.-made product that avoids tariffs and overseas shipping delays.
