Anders Malpass-Drop Designs

 

AndersEvery mechanical product from a car to a garage door uses sprockets, which are power transmission products, along with bushings, hubs, and couplings. Power transmission is the movement of energy from where is it generated to where it can be used to perform useful work. This is the domain of Drop Design, an award winning company that designs and manufactures power transmission products.  Drop Design recently built a new facility in South Slocan, which is the largest of their 4 facilities and will become the head office of this pioneering company.
