A system and method for manufacturing an internal gear is provided. A carrier is used to transport a gear blank having a first predefined pitch diameter to face width ratio. A forming tool is used for forming a plurality of teeth on the gear blank and provides other gear and spline forming operations. A furnace heats the gear having the plurality of teeth formed thereon to a predefined temperature for a predefined length of time to form a carburized gear. Finally, a cutting tool is provided to cut the gear at predefined location along its face to form at least two separate gears each having a second and third pitch diameter to face width ratios.
