Speed Reducers for Position- and Speed-Control Motors

Pair these speed reducers with stepper and servo motors in position- and speed-control applications. Helical gears provide exact positioning and smoother travel than our other speed reducers. Attach to a motor to transmit motion parallel to the motor shaft while reducing speed and increasing torque. They meet IP65 for protection from washdowns.

Radial loads are loads that are perpendicular to the shaft. They’re commonly caused by components attached to shaft, such as pulleys and sprockets.
