Parallel Shaft Reducers, also known as Parallel Shaft Reducer Gearboxes, are gear speed reducers in which the motor shaft and reducer output shaft are on parallel planes. This allows them to take up less room than coaxial reducers and have high power and torque outputs. Parallel Shaft Speed Reducers are produced in a variety of sizes, brands, and styles, and can be custom or standard builds. They are a great choice for continuous duty applications.

Parallel Shaft Speed Reducers come in three main gear types: Spur, Helical, and Double Helical. Each gear type comes with its own advantages and costs. Spur gears are most common, and also typically most affordable, while Helical and Double Helical gears tend to be more expensive, they are quieter and more powerful.
We&#;re taking everything we&#;ve discussed and applying it in three scenarios. Any gear motor will work for most applications, but there&#;s usually only one or two types that are best.
In this video we discuss how to select a gear motor in four simple steps by choosing an integrated gear motor.
This video continues our discussion of selecting a gear motor by pairing the separate components. Now we look at how to select a motor based on the reducer selected for the application.
In this video we begin our deep dive into gear motor selection. There are two methods for pairing motors and reducers to create the optimal gear motor. Here we begin with the first method by taking a look at gear box selection.
This video covers the important application criteria that need to be considered when selecting a gear motor.
Right Angle reducers are great for applications where size and space are at a premium. With the ability of the the output to turn a 90 degree corner.
Planetary reducers are ideal for applications requiring high torque in a small package and an output shaft with coaxial alignment. We'll discuss the construction, characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of Planetary gearboxes.
Parallel shaft gearboxes are an ideal solution for continuous duty applications; applications requiring low torque; applications with higher ambient temperatures; or applications that are cost conscious.
In this video we give a quick overview of motors and explain the rationale for using gear motors - why using a reducer (gearbox) with a motor enables the use of a smaller motor and increased torque and/or speed.
Even when the motor matches the application on paper, you can still run into new variables while testing. Here are six common checks to help determine why your motor may be overheating.
In this video we discuss planetary gearboxes. Learn the ins and outs of how these reducers work as well as their advantages and disadvantages.
As we round out this video series, we will share several motor calculation formulas and other tools to help you with the selection process.
We&#;re taking everything we&#;ve discussed and applying it in three scenarios with varying levels of customized motors. Any motor will work for most applications, but there&#;s usually only one or two types that are best.
In this video we hope to ease any concerns you may have about what&#;s involved in customizing a motor to fit your application. You don&#;t have to take a standard motor and try to make it &#;fit&#; your application.
