Product Features
The 700 Series’ huge oil reservoir provides efficient heat dissipation and lubrication for longer operating life.
Its multi-position mounting flexibility permits installation in virtually any position.
Housings are straddle-milled, top and bottom, for precise alignment of horizontal and vertical bases.
Internal baffles assure positive, leak-free venting.
The 700 Series’ rugged housing, fabricated of fine-grained, gear-quality cast iron, provides maximum strength for maximum durability, in addition to 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 capacity for high torque and overhung loads.
Pipe plugs allow easy fill, level, and drain in virtually any mounting position.
The 700 Series’ super-finished oil-seal diameters on both input and output shafts extend seal life.

GEARBOX REDUCERS
Correct angle gearboxes (worm and planetary) are durable and built for 90° turns. Inline reducers (parallel shaft and planetary) are an ideal match for motors with high input speeds, or when gearmotor performance is important. Get in touch with our technical sales staff for help identifying which gearbox alternative is best for you.
RIGHT ANGLE REDUCERS
WORM GEAR REDUCER
EP’s worm equipment reducers are designed with a hollow bore and invite for a corner turn with optional dual result. The reducers come in 12 ratios ranging from 5:1 to 100:1, with non-back-drivable ratios 30:1 and higher. Our right angle gearboxes were created with five mounting options providing versatility when incorporating the reducer into product.
RIGHT ANGLE BEVEL GEARBOX
bevel-right-angle-gearbox
The proper angle bevel gearbox combines the top features of our correct angle worm and planetary inline reducers. With a good and efficient right angle configuration, our correct angle planetary gearboxes provide a robust solution. The proper angle bevel gearbox will come in 18 ratios ranging from 5:1 to 1000:1, and it is back-drivable at all ratios.
INLINE REDUCERS
I-SERIES PLANETARY GEARBOX
i-series-planetary-gearbox
Our I-Series little planetary gearbox configurations supply the smallest footprint and quietest operation of our acceleration reducers. These gearboxes are created to handle varying loads with small backlash. With framework sizes 52cm, 62cm, and 81cm, 12 ratios ranging from 5:1 to 308:1, we have a solution to fit your needs. Our 52 frame size can be available with plastic gears for noise-sensitive applications.
INLINE PLANETARY GEARBOX
inline-planetary-gearbox
Our inline planetary gearbox configurations supply the highest performance and best output torque of all our acceleration reducers. These gearboxes are made to manage varying loads with little backlash. Planetary equipment reducers operate more quietly than parallel shaft reducers. With 18 ratio options which range from 5:1 to 1000:1, we’ve a solution to suit your needs.
PARALLEL SHAFT GEARBOX
parallel-shaft-gearbox
Parallel shaft gearboxes are the best choice for constant duty applications. Their gear cluster design provides a highly effective method for dissipating high temperature. Parallel shaft gearboxes possess the shortest amount of our inline gear reducer options so they work very well in conditions 
with limited space. Our parallel shaft gear reducers offer an affordable drop-in replacement solution for most little parallel shaft gearmotors.
Wormwheel gearboxes go by several names, including 90-degree gearboxes, right position gearboxes, swiftness reducers, worm equipment reducers and worm drive gearboxes. Gear reduction boxes feature a gear arrangement when a equipment in the form of a screw, also referred to as a worm, meshes with a worm equipment. These gears are typically made from bronze and the worms are steel or stainless steel.
While worm gears act like a spur equipment, the worm gearboxes are significantly smaller than other gear reduction boxes. A primary benefit of worm equipment reducers is usually that they generate an output that is 90° from the insight and can be utilized to transmit higher torque or reduce rotational speed. Most often, a worm gearbox has right hand threads; to improve the path of the result, a left-hands thread worm gearbox is necessary.
