12 more companies were named at least once. Companies outside the top ten are counted in the averages but not named here.

Also named, based in another state

AI assistants named these companies too, but MacRAE'S lists them in a different state, not New York. They belong to that state's ranking, not this one.

Company	State	Mentions
U.S. Tsubaki Power Transmission	Illinois	3 of 15
Gates Corporation	Kentucky	2 of 15
AutomationDirect – Power Transmission	Georgia	1 of 15
Cross Bros. Co.	California	1 of 15
ErieTec	Pennsylvania	1 of 15

Named, but placed in another state

The AI answers themselves put these companies in a different state, so they were not counted for New York. Whether MacRAE'S lists them elsewhere is not yet known.

The five questions we asked

Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.

1“Best suppliers of power transmission components in New York”
2“Who supplies taper-lock bushings for power transmission in New York”
3“I need a New York power transmission partner for a new conveyor line build-out, who should I talk to”
4“Top power transmission components suppliers in New York for OEM machinery buyers”
5“Which New York power transmission component suppliers can assist with sizing and selecting shaft couplings and bushings for high-torque applications”
6“List 20 power transmission components companies in New York with their specialties.”the roster question

Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
