Type of Gearboxes

A reduction gearbox, or speed reducer, is a mechanical device that lowers the rotational speed of an input shaft while simultaneously increasing its torque. It achieves this by using a series of gears, where a smaller "driver" gear turns a larger "driven" gear, causing the output shaft to rotate more slowly but with greater turning force. Reduction gearboxes are used in a vast array of applications, from industrial machinery and wind turbines to automotive systems, to match a power source's output to a specific load's requirements

The main types include:

Single stage reduction gearbox
Double reduction gearbox
Worm and wheel gearbox
Planetary gearbox
