Overview
B103 10.92:1 bevel helical gearbox with a 50mm hollow bore output and 90B5 IEC motor input for compact 90° right-angle drive integration.
Mid reduction: This mid reduction ratio delivers a balanced speed-to-torque profile, supporting steady running under load for conveyors, general handling systems, and continuous-duty machinery.
Designed for industrial reliability, this build provides stable output speed control and robust torque delivery in demanding environments.
Need the non-standard 45mm bore option?
If your application requires a 45mm output bore instead of the standard 50mm, we can supply this as a non-standard configuration. View available B103 options and request the 45mm version here: Motovario B103 Gearbox.

Output Speed (4-Pole vs 2-Pole Motors)
Calculated nominal output speed using a standard IEC motor:
| Motor Type | Input Speed (rpm) | Estimated Output Speed (rpm) |
|---|---|---|
| 4-Pole | 1400 | ~128 rpm |
| 2-Pole | 2800 | ~256 rpm |
Need torque confirmation? Output torque depends on motor power (kW), gearbox efficiency, and service factor. Use our Gearbox Service Factor Calculator or contact us for verified torque figures.

Performance & Design Features
✔ Space-saving 90° bevel layout for compact machine designs
✔ Strong torque multiplication with stable, controlled output speeds
✔ Precision-machined spiral bevel gearing for smooth, low-noise power transfer
✔ Heavy-duty taper roller bearings for high radial and axial load handling
✔ Well suited to inverter (VFD) driven motors and variable-speed control
✔ Rigid cast iron housing built for OEM and continuous-duty operation
Ratio Selection Tips
- Best for: higher-speed duties where you still want torque multiplication — ideal for light conveying, packaging machinery, and compact automation drives.
- Selection tip: low ratios suit responsive motion — check acceleration/inertia and ensure the driven equipment doesn’t require very slow output speed.
FAQ
Will this ratio be too fast for my application?
If you need very slow output speed, move up to a mid or high reduction ratio. Low ratios are best when you still want a relatively quick output with torque gain.
Can I run this with a VFD?
Yes — a VFD is ideal for fine speed control. Keep an eye on cooling at very low motor speeds if you reduce frequency for extended periods.
Configuration Notes
- Input flange note: the 90B5 IEC input is suited to higher-power motor pairings, improving input torque handling for continuous-duty industrial operation.
- Output bore note: with a 50mm bore, this gearbox suits many standard shafting setups, providing a robust interface for continuous-duty power transfer.
- Application example: fast conveyor infeed/outfeed where you want responsive line speed without sacrificing pulling force.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor and line-shaft drive systems
- Automated production and assembly lines
- Food and beverage processing machinery
- Materials handling and logistics equipment
- Pumps, mixers, and agitator drives
- OEM machine and equipment builds
