Right Angle Bevel Gearboxes
Bevel Gearboxes
Ondrives.US offers a range of bevel gearbox configurations designed to transfer rotary motion at a right angle while providing dependable performance in compact mechanical systems. These products can be used where machinery requires a change in shaft direction without adding unnecessary complexity to the overall drive system.Common applications include industrial automation, packaging equipment, conveyors, inspection systems, assembly machinery, robotics, and custom-built equipment. Depending on the configuration, a bevel gearbox can provide a practical solution for connecting motors, drives, and driven components positioned on perpendicular axes.

Counter-Rotating Bevel Gearboxes
Some applications require more than a standard 90-degree transfer of rotary motion. Counter-rotating bevel gearboxes are designed for systems that need two output shafts operating in opposite directions. This makes them particularly useful for specialized machinery, winding and unwinding systems, testing equipment, rotating fixtures, and custom motion assemblies.The counter-rotating design can simplify mechanical layouts by producing opposing rotational motion within a single gearbox assembly rather than requiring additional external gearing or separate drive components.
- Available in 1:1 or 2:1 ratios
- High efficiency: up to 88% at 1,000 RPM
- Max. input speed: 3,000 RPM
- Low output backlash: less than 10’
- Torque values up to 70Nm
- Supplied with Spiral Bevel gears
Low Profile Bevel Gearboxes
Low-profile bevel gearboxes have an operating temperature range from -5°F (-20°C) to 175°F (79°C) for use in a broad range of applications and operating environments. Features an anodized aluminum housing and stainless-steel shafts.- 1:1 gear ratio

- Torque ranging from 2 inch-ounces to 32 inch-pounds
- Max. input speed: up to 3,000 RPM
- Low output backlash: ≈1°, with an option of 1/2°
- Four frame sizes ranging from 1”x1”x 9/16” up to 2-1/2” x 2-1/2” x 1-1/2” high
Bevel Gearbox Shafts & Couplings
Input and output shafts with drive keys and retainer rings can be supplied to your specifications for any of our hollow bore gearboxes. A broad selection of misalignment shaft couplings in inch and metric bore sizes is also available.Standard 90-Degree Gearboxes
Standard right-angle gearboxes come in numerous configurations to meet your application requirements. Our Buyer’s Guide outlines the ten points to consider when choosing a standard OEM bevel gearbox. Another valuable reference, Inertia and the Use of Inertia Figures, has a formula for dealing with inertia in gearbox selection.Custom Right Angle Bevel Gearboxes
With the understanding that every application is unique, we can modify stock gearboxes or engineer custom right angle gearboxes to your specifications. Custom capabilities include working from your drawing, developing a custom bevel gearbox design based on your requirements, or reverse-engineering an existing, obsolete product.Applications for Right Angle Bevel Gearboxes
Right Angle Bevel Gearboxes are selected for a variety of applications where rotational power must change direction efficiently. Their compact configuration makes them particularly useful when motors and driven components cannot be positioned on the same axis.Typical applications include:
- Industrial automation equipment
- Packaging and processing machinery
- Conveyor and material handling systems
- Robotics and robotic work cells
- Assembly and inspection equipment
- Test and measurement systems
- Positioning equipment
- Custom machinery
- Medical and laboratory equipment
- OEM motion control assemblies
