Gear Reducers

At Northwest Motion, we’re experts at selecting gear reducers. Tell us your speed, torque, precision and configuration requirements, and we will help you select the right gear reducer for the job.

Specialty Gear Reducers

There is simply no other gearbox like Galaxie®. The award-winning patented design technology allows for previously unattainable levels of precision, smoothness and dynamics. The Galaxie® is the first zero backlash gearbox in the market and offers the perfect solution for rotary CNC axes, high precision robot axes, precision Indexing / dial tables, and direct drive alternatives.

Precision Gear Reducers

Northwest Motion's gearbox offerings far exceed industry standards. They boast the highest torque density in the market – coupled with maximum torsional rigidity and titling moment capacity. If your application requires the best gear reducers on the market, then you are in the right place.

Zero Backlash Gear Reducers

Harmonic gearing is low to zero backlash by design. It provides high transmission accuracy and can support a high ratio reduction in a single stage with lower inertia. The highly accurate, torque dense design makes harmonic gears a great solution for robotic and positioning applications.

Low Backlash Gear Reducers

From precise torque converters to a universal success factor for your machine. High torsional rigidity, extremely smooth running and low torsional backlash are typical performance features of our low-backlash planetary gearboxes. Our broad product portfolio, with several different output configurations, contains the perfect planetary gearbox whatever the application.

Economy Gear Reducers

Northwest Motion's economy gear reducer selection provides a cost effective, flexible, and compact solution to fulfill the low-to-medium power range requirements. Contact a member of our team to see what gear reducer is right for your application.

Industrial Gear Reducers

At Northwest Motion we can deliver gearboxes specifically engineered for applications that require extremely high torque and precision in a quiet, compact package. With higher shock resistance compared to standard gearboxes, our industrial gearboxes have greater endurance to withstand heavy starting and stopping loads. In addition, true double enveloping worm gear technology makes for a low to zero backlash gearbox.
