Overview
This BA72 configuration combines a 80B5 motor flange with the standard 35mm hollow bore, making it a practical option for right-angle drives in compact production and handling equipment.
Reduction profile: At 27.45:1, this version offers a noticeably slower output and improved torque gain, which is useful for conveyors, process lines, and machinery that need calm, controlled motion.
The B5 flange pattern gives a familiar mounting style for many IEC motor installations, which helps when matching replacement motors or standardising across existing plant equipment.
Like the wider BA72 range, it uses efficient bevel-helical gearing to deliver smooth running, dependable mechanical efficiency, and reliable long-service performance in daily industrial operation.
Need the non-standard 30mm bore option?
If your application requires the non-standard 30mm output bore instead of this standard 35mm version, we can supply that configuration as well. View available BA72 options and request the non-standard bore version here: Motovario BA72 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 | ~51 rpm |
| 2-Pole | 2800 | ~102 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.

Ratio Selection Tips
Best for: loaded conveyors, process handling equipment, and automation systems that need stronger torque with controlled output speed.
Selection tip: pick 27.45:1 when you want a clear step up in torque multiplication from the lower medium ratios without moving fully into the slower high-ratio end of the range.
FAQ
Will this ratio be too fast for my application?
This ratio is no longer in the quick-output category. It suits equipment that benefits from steadier motion and stronger torque, though it is still faster than the higher BA72 ratios used for slower duty.
Can I run this with a VFD?
Yes — using a VFD with 27.45:1 gives good flexibility for startup, process control, and trimming conveyor speed without sacrificing the stronger torque advantage of this ratio.
Configuration Notes
- Input flange note: the 80B5 motor input gives a compact direct flange arrangement for smaller IEC motors where installation space is limited.
- Output bore note: this build uses the standard 35mm bore. A 30mm BA72 bore is available as a non-standard option if a smaller shaft size is required.
- Application example: compact conveyor drives, transfer systems, and packaging equipment where direct B5 mounting is preferred.
Typical Applications
- Frequently used on packaging machinery, conveying equipment, material transfer systems, and OEM machine builds.
- Packaging and process handling equipment
- Automated production and assembly lines
- Light materials handling equipment
- Rotary equipment and general machinery drives
- OEM machine and equipment builds
