Inline Gearboxes

Delivering efficient torque transmission, smooth running and long service life in compact linear drive systems.
Modular Customisation

Efficient Torque Transmission

Our inline gearboxes are engineered to deliver controlled torque and speed through a direct, straight-line drivetrain. This configuration ensures minimal offset, making integration simple in products where alignment and compact packaging are essential.

With optimised internal geometry and low-friction components, the inline range supports smooth, quiet running across a broad selection of ratios and duty cycles.

Where a right-angle or offset layout suits your product better, see our ovoid gearboxes.

  • Efficient torque transfer through a straight-through drive path
  • Compact footprint suitable for linear layouts
  • Quiet and stable running characteristics

Built for Longevity and
 Consistent Output

Each gearbox benefits from a refined geartrain architecture that balances torque capability with efficiency and durability. Precision-moulded gears and carefully selected materials maintain stable output performance over extended service life, even under frequent start-stop operation.

The design also offers predictable backlash characteristics, supporting applications that require controlled positioning or repeatable actuation.

  • Wide ratio and motor compatibility
  • Configurable shafts and mounting options
  • Proven long-life reliability across varied duty cycles
