Overview
B123 99.70:1 bevel helical gearbox with a 60mm hollow bore output and 132B5 IEC motor input for compact 90° right-angle drive integration.
Engineered for continuous-duty operation, this configuration delivers dependable torque transfer and smooth running under load.
Very high reduction: This very high reduction ratio delivers maximum torque multiplication with very low output speed, ideal for heavy conveying, bulk handling, and high-inertia loads where stability and control matter more than speed.
As part of the modular Motovario B123 bevel helical gearbox range, this unit supports flexible mounting positions, straightforward IEC motor compatibility, and proven long-term reliability for industrial service.
Need the non standard 55mm bore option?
If your application requires a different output bore size than the standard 60mm, we can often supply alternative configurations depending on availability. View the B123 range and request your required bore option here: Motovario B123 Gearbox.

Ratio Selection Tips
- Best for: maximum torque and very low output speed — ideal for heavy conveying, bulk handling, rotary valves, and high-inertia loads that demand stable, controlled motion.
- Selection tip: very high ratios are for maximum torque — verify load inertia, stopping requirements, and whether braking (mechanical or VFD) is needed to control overrun.
FAQ
Is a very high ratio suitable for heavy conveyors?
Yes — very high ratios are commonly used where maximum pulling power and stable, low-speed motion are required.
Do I need to worry about stopping/overrun?
Yes — with high inertia loads, consider braking (mechanical brake or VFD braking) and confirm holding/overrun requirements to keep motion controlled.
Configuration Notes
- Input flange note: the 132B5 IEC input is built for high-power motor pairings, delivering strong input torque capacity for demanding conveyors and process machinery.
- Output bore note: the 60mm hollow shaft bore suits larger shaft interfaces and heavier loading, providing a robust connection for high-torque transmission.
- Application example: rotary valve or dosing system where precise low-speed output and high torque prevent stalling under load.
Typical Applications
- Belt and chain conveyor drives (incl. incline conveyors)
- Line-shaft conveyor sections and transfer stations
- Packaging machinery (cartoners, case packers, pallet conveyors)
- Automated assembly and indexing tables
- Food-grade conveyor and processing line drives (washdown-area compatible when specified)
- Materials handling: roller conveyors, sortation lines, and accumulation systems
