Product Features

Avoid Catastrophic Failure
The cycloidal disc design allows the reduction components to operate in a smooth, rolling manner, preventing tooth breakage typical in conventional gearing, and resulting in a durable product with a long life.
Wide Capacity Range
Choose the size and modifications that best fit your needs. A wide range of HP ratings up to 200HP, reduction ratios up to 658,503:1, and dozens of application and industry specific modifications, ensure your operation avoids unexpected downtime.
Industry Leading Service Factors
Due to the Cyclo design, service factors out pace normal AGMA recommended service factors by nearly 25%. This allows you to downsize when selecting a Cyclo, while still maintaining the same ratings and service factors you are accustomed to with conventional gear reducers.
Maintenance Free Options
Rolling elements result in less friction and less heat. Subsequently, this allows us to utilize grease lubrication in an effort to provide you with a nearly maintenance free solution. Grease lubrication comes standard in sizes 6060 to 6125, and is optional in sizes 6130 and above.
Bearing Grade Steel
Unlike conventional in-line gear reducers utilizing helical or planetary gearing, all of the Cyclo's reduction components are made of high quality 52/100 bearing-grade steel.
Compact and Torque Dense
With single reduction ratios up to 121:1, we can offer single stage reducers where others must move to two or three stages. This allows for a compact offering, saving you money and space, as well as a efficiency gains compared to multi-stage reducers.

Break-Resistant Gearing

Unlike a regular involute tooth-gear, the "cycloidal disc," which is the gear for the Cyclo® Reducer, features a distinctively smooth curve.
A unique circular-arc tooth profile is also used for the internal gear. The smooth rolling contact that prevents tooth breakage results in a durable gearbox with a long service life. (Some low reduction ratio models use helical gears and planetary gears.)
