What a gear motor does
A gear motor is an electric motor with an integrated gearbox. The gearbox acts as a speed reducer and torque multiplier: a higher reduction ratio gives lower output speed and higher output torque. This lets a small motor move a heavy load without an oversized drive train.
The gear type, number of reduction stages, lubrication and coupling design decide whether a gear motor suits light, medium or heavy loads, and short or continuous running. Because the motor and gearbox arrive as one assembly, there is no field alignment, and the machine builder saves time sourcing separate parts.
As gear motor suppliers in India we size the unit from your load, not from catalogue ratings alone.
Gear motor types
Compact AC geared motors
Small induction or reversible motors with parallel-shaft gearheads, typically up to around 200 W.
Helical and parallel-shaft
Efficient, quiet gearing for conveyors and general machinery.
Worm and right-angle
Compact right-angle output with high ratios in a single stage; lower efficiency than helical.
Planetary servo gearboxes
High torque density and low backlash for servo motors on positioning axes.
Zero-backlash servo gearboxes
For precise indexing and robotics where lost motion must be minimal.
Gear motors with brake
Holding brakes for vertical axes, inclined conveyors and lifting duties.
Gear motor selection specifications
| Specification | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Output speed (rpm) | Sets the gear ratio: motor speed divided by required output speed |
| Output torque (Nm) | Must exceed the load torque including start and acceleration |
| Service factor | Allows for shock loads, starts per hour and running hours |
| Motor power and supply | Single-phase or three-phase, voltage and frequency |
| Shaft and mounting | Solid or hollow shaft, foot or flange, right-angle or inline |
| Backlash | Important for servo and positioning applications |
| Duty and environment | Continuous or intermittent; washdown, dust or outdoor use |

What to send with your gear motor enquiry
Not sure about some details? Send what you have — we will ask the right follow-up questions.
- Required output speed and output torque, or load weight and conveyor speed
- Supply: single-phase or three-phase, voltage

- Duty: hours per day, starts per hour, reversing
- Whether a brake or speed controller is needed
- Nameplate photo if replacing an existing unit
- Quantity and delivery location
How an enquiry works
Send your requirement
Share the gear motor details, quantity and site location through the quote form, phone or email. A nameplate photo or existing part number speeds things up.
Technical review
We check the ratings and application against available models and come back with questions if anything is unclear or missing.
Options and quotation
You receive suitable options, including equivalents where an exact match is not available, with a written quotation.
Supply and support
After the order we coordinate dispatch to your site in Mumbai or anywhere in India and remain available for spares and follow-up questions.
How do I calculate the gear ratio I need?
Divide the motor's rated speed by the output speed you need. For example, a 1400 rpm motor driving a roller at 28 rpm needs a ratio of about 50:1. Then check that the gearbox output torque at that ratio covers the load torque, with a service factor for shock and duty.
What is the difference between a gear motor and a gearbox?
A gearbox is the reduction unit alone and needs a motor to be coupled to it. A gear motor is a motor and gearbox supplied together as one matched unit. Gear motors save alignment work and space, while separate gearboxes give more freedom to change motors later.
Worm or helical gear motor: which is better?
Helical gearing is more efficient and runs cooler, so it suits continuous duty. Worm gearing gives high ratios and a right-angle output in a compact single stage, and some ratios resist back-driving, but efficiency is lower. Choose on efficiency, space and whether self-locking behaviour is useful.
What is backlash and when does it matter?
Backlash is the small play between meshing gear teeth, measured in arc-minutes. It matters on positioning axes driven by servo motors, where play causes positioning error. For conveyors and fans it is not important. Low or zero-backlash planetary gearboxes are used on servo axes.
Can I run a gear motor with a VFD?
Yes. Running a three-phase gear motor on a VFD lets you fine-tune output speed without changing the ratio. Keep the motor within its cooling limits at low speed, and check that the gearbox lubrication suits the speed range you plan to use.
