Overview
This BA72 configuration combines a 90B5 motor flange with the standard 35mm hollow bore, making it a capable right-angle gearbox for general industrial drives that need efficient 90° power transmission.
Reduction profile: The 33.04:1 ratio pushes the BA72 into a slower, higher-torque operating window, making it a sensible choice for drive duties where smooth, deliberate movement matters more than fast output speed.
For equipment already standardised around B5 motor mounting, this version helps simplify replacement and integration while retaining the BA72’s compact right-angle form.
In service, the BA72 arrangement is valued for efficient right-angle transmission, stable output behaviour, and the kind of durability expected in continuous-duty industrial environments.
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 | ~42 rpm |
| 2-Pole | 2800 | ~85 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: heavier conveyors, handling systems, and industrial machinery that need slower shaft speed with stronger torque without stepping into the highest BA72 ratios.
Selection tip: choose 33.04:1 when you want the strongest torque gain within the medium reduction group before moving up to the slower high-ratio configurations.
FAQ
Will this ratio be too fast for my application?
33.04:1 is slower than the other medium-ratio options, so it suits machinery needing more controlled output and stronger torque rather than fast shaft speed.
Can I run this with a VFD?
Yes — this ratio can be paired with a VFD for extra process control and startup flexibility. It is useful where the application needs both torque multiplication and speed adjustment.
Configuration Notes
- Input flange note: the 90B5 motor input offers direct flange mounting for IEC 90 frame motors and is well suited to tidy, rigid installations.
- 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: general conveyor drives, line machinery, and plant equipment where direct B5 motor mounting is preferred.
Typical Applications
- Commonly used on conveyor drives, transfer systems, industrial automation machinery, and OEM production equipment.
- 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
