In addition to the holding the position of Secretariat, AGMA convenes (chairs) the active ISO Working Groups related to gear inspection and testing.

AGMA began on the cutting edge of new technologies. In 1916, a new gear market was emerging. It emphasized quiet operation, particularly for timing gears in the automotive industry. Gear manufacturers were exploring various materials – but lacked technical standards for non-metallic gearing. AGMA was born when R.D. Nuttall Company brought together several gear manufacturers to discuss developing such standards.
