ABM Unveils Geared Motors for Industrial and E-Mobility Applications

ABM Greiffenberger has expanded its high-performance gearbox and geared-motor portfolio, delivering advanced drive solutions designed for modern industrial and e-mobility applications. With optimized torque density, compact integration, and long operating life, the new range of helical, parallel-shaft, and angular gear units is designed to help OEMs achieve greater efficiency, reliability, and design flexibility across demanding motion-control environments.

Gearbox Portfolio Designed for Performance and Flexibility

  • Helical Geared Motors: ABM’s G-series gearboxes deliver compact dimensions, low weight, and high mechanical efficiency. Their high-quality gearing ensures quiet and durable operation, ideal where space is limited but performance can’t be compromised.
  • Parallel Shaft Gear Units (FG-series): Built with high-contact-ratio helical gears and aluminum die-cast housings, these units combine light weight with structural strength. Their design supports efficient power transfer, varied mounting options, and maintenance-free operation.
  • Angular / Right-Angle Gearboxes (KG-series): The modular angular gear motors offer high radial-load tolerance, corrosion-resistant aluminum housings, and long service life, proving ideal for applications requiring compact footprint and high torque in non-linear mechanical layouts.

ABM’s broad range of gearboxes gives system integrators the flexibility to match the right unit to their design challenges, addressing specific needs such as torque capacity, compactness, mounting configuration, and maintenance intervals.

ABM delivers fully integrated drive systems, combining motors, gearboxes, brakes, and inverters. This modular “one-stop” approach ensures that components are engineered for compatibility, optimizing performance, simplifying procurement, reducing footprint, and shortening time-to-market.

This flexibility enables applications across a wide spectrum: automated guided vehicles (AGVs), forklifts, material-handling systems, e-mobility platforms, lifting and hoisting machinery, conveyors, renewable-energy installations, and more.

Highlights of ABM's Approach

Efficiency & Energy Savings: High-quality gearing and carefully optimized drives deliver low losses and high mechanical efficiency, critical for systems aiming for energy savings or battery-based e-mobility operation.

Space & Integration Efficiency: Compact gearboxes and integrated drive modules help in tight installations, whether inside electric vehicles, mobile machines, or constrained factory floors. 

Noise Reduction & Reliability: Smooth-running gearings and robust housings yield quieter operation and long maintenance intervals, advantages in indoor automation, logistics, and sensitive industrial settings.

Scalable & Customizable: Modular design and configurable drive units allow ABM to serve both mass-production OEMs and custom-engineered applications, scaling from small machines to large industrial drives.
