In modern industrial automation, conveying systems are the backbone of efficient material handling. Whether you are moving bulk materials, pallets, or packaged goods, selecting the right gear motor is critical for performance, reliability, and long-term operating cost.

Among all available solutions, the helical gear motor has become the preferred choice for most conveying systems due to its high efficiency, smooth transmission, and strong torque capability. This practical guide explains how helical geared motors work, why they are ideal for conveying applications, and how Victory helps global customers choose the right solution.



Understanding Conveying Systems

A conveying system is designed to transport materials continuously from one point to another with minimal manual intervention. These systems operate for long hours, often under varying loads, making the drive system a crucial component.

Common Industries Using Conveying Systems

  • Bulk material handling (cement, mining, grain, aggregates)

  • Packaging and logistics (warehouses, distribution centers)

  • Manufacturing and processing plants (food, beverage, automotive, steel)

In all these applications, stable speed, high torque, and long service life are essential—exactly where a geared motor excels.



Why Gear Motors Are Essential for Conveying Systems

A standard electric motor alone cannot meet the torque and speed requirements of most conveyors. This is why a gear motor—a motor combined with a gearbox—is used.

A properly selected geared motor allows you to:

  • Reduce speed to match conveyor requirements

  • Increase torque without oversizing the motor

  • Maintain stable operation under continuous duty

  • Improve energy efficiency and system reliability

For demanding conveying systems, helical gear motors stand out among all gear motor types.



What Is a Helical Gear Motor

A helical gear motor integrates an electric motor with a helical gear reducer. The gearbox uses helical gears with angled teeth, allowing multiple teeth to engage at the same time.

How Helical Gear Transmission Works

Compared with spur gears, helical gear transmission provides:

  • Smoother power transfer

  • Lower vibration and noise

  • Higher load-carrying capacity

This makes helical gear motors ideal for conveyors that run continuously and require stable output speed.



Key Advantages of Helical Gear Motors in Conveying Systems

High Torque at Low Speed

A helical speed reducer delivers strong torque output, enabling conveyors to start smoothly even under heavy load.

Smooth and Quiet Operation

The angled gear design ensures quieter operation—especially important in logistics centers and indoor conveying systems.

High Efficiency and Energy Saving

Compared with worm gear motors, helical gearboxes offer significantly higher efficiency, reducing energy consumption over time.

Long Service Life

Industrial-grade helical reduction gearboxes are designed for long-term continuous duty, minimizing downtime and maintenance.



Types of Gear Motors Used in Conveying Systems

Different conveying layouts require different gearbox configurations.

Inline Helical Gear Motor (Coaxial Gear Motor)

Also known as a coaxial gear motor, this type features a compact design and high efficiency, making it ideal for belt and roller conveyors.

Parallel Shaft Gear Motor

A parallel shaft helical gearbox offers flexible installation and is commonly used in medium to heavy-duty conveying systems.

Bevel Gear Motor and Right Angle Gear Motor

When space is limited or direction change is required, a bevel gear motor or right angle gear motor is the best solution.

Worm Gear Motor

A worm gear motor is suitable for light-duty conveyors but is generally less efficient than a helical geared motor.
