Product Features
The 700 Series’ large oil reservoir provides efficient heat dissipation and lubrication for longer operating existence.
Its multi-position mounting versatility allows for installation in practically any position.
Housings are straddle-milled, best and bottom, for precise alignment of horizontal and vertical bases.
Internal baffles assure positive, leak-free venting.
The 700 Series’ rugged casing, fabricated of fine-grained, gear-quality cast iron, provides maximum strength for maximum durability, as well as greater precision during worm and gear alignment.
EP Gear’s 700 Series high-strength bronze worm gear is straddle mounted between heavy-duty tapered roller bearings to improve thrust and overhung load capacities, sizes 713-760.
Our 700 Series’ high-strength steel result shaft assures convenience of high torque and overhung loads.
Pipe plugs allow easy fill up, level, and drain in virtually any mounting position.
The 700 Series’ super-finished oil-seal diameters on both input and output shafts extend seal lifestyle.

GEARBOX REDUCERS
Right angle gearboxes (worm and planetary) are rugged and built for 90° turns. Inline reducers (parallel shaft and planetary) are an ideal match for motors with high insight speeds, or when gearmotor performance is important. Get in touch with our technical sales staff for help determining which gearbox solution is best for you.
RIGHT ANGLE REDUCERS
WORM GEAR REDUCER
EP’s worm gear reducers are designed with a hollow bore and allow for a corner switch with optional dual result. The reducers come in 12 ratios which range from 5:1 to 100:1, with non-back-drivable ratios 30:1 and higher. Our correct angle gearboxes are designed with five mounting choices providing versatility when incorporating the reducer into product.
RIGHT ANGLE BEVEL GEARBOX
bevel-right-angle-gearbox
The proper angle bevel gearbox combines the features of our correct angle worm and planetary inline reducers. With a good and efficient right angle configuration, our correct angle planetary gearboxes offer a robust solution. The right angle bevel gearbox comes in 18 ratios ranging from 5:1 to 1000:1, in fact it is back-drivable at all ratios.
INLINE REDUCERS
I-SERIES PLANETARY GEARBOX
i-series-planetary-gearbox
Our I-Series small planetary gearbox configurations supply the smallest footprint and quietest procedure of our rate reducers. These gearboxes are created to handle varying loads with little backlash. With body sizes 52cm, 62cm, and 81cm, 12 ratios ranging from 5:1 to 308:1, we’ve a solution to fit your needs. Our 52 frame size is also available with plastic-type gears for noise-delicate applications.
INLINE PLANETARY GEARBOX
inline-planetary-gearbox
Our inline planetary gearbox configurations provide the highest effectiveness and best result torque of most our swiftness reducers. These gearboxes are designed to manage varying loads with small backlash. Planetary gear reducers operate more quietly than parallel shaft reducers. With 18 ratio choices ranging from 5:1 to 1000:1, we have a solution to fit your needs.
PARALLEL SHAFT GEARBOX
parallel-shaft-gearbox
Parallel shaft gearboxes will be the top choice for continuous duty applications. Their gear cluster design provides an effective method for dissipating temperature. Parallel shaft gearboxes have the shortest amount of our inline gear reducer options so they work very well in environments with limited space. Our parallel shaft gear reducers offer an affordable drop-in alternative solution for most small parallel shaft gearmotors.
Wormwheel gearboxes pass several names, including 90-degree gearboxes, right position gearboxes, velocity reducers, worm equipment reducers and worm drive gearboxes. Gear reduction boxes feature a gear arrangement when a equipment in the kind of a screw, also called a worm, meshes with a worm equipment. These gears are typically created from bronze and the worms are steel or stainless steel.

While worm gears act like a spur gear, the worm gearboxes are considerably smaller than other gear reduction boxes. A principal benefit of worm gear reducers is certainly that they create an output that’s 90° from the insight and can be utilized to transmit higher torque or reduce rotational speed. Most often, a worm gearbox offers right hand threads; to improve the path of the result, a left-hand thread worm gearbox is required.
