Big efficiency wrapped in a compact design
Right-angle power transmission
All Neugart bevel gearboxes feature a right-angle stage. They allow power to be redirected through 90° without compromising torque or efficiency. Flexible mounting options make it simple to connect different motor input shafts directly. This gives your designers maximum flexibility when machine layout or installation space prevents a straight-line drive.
Space-saving, compact design
Most of our bevel models are built to be axially short. Their disc-style planet carriers and flange outputs minimize overall length. Optional hollow shaft versions simplify cabling and integration in automation systems. The result is a gearbox that fits easily into tight mechanical envelopes. You get reduced overhang loads and improved drivetrain stiffness.
Robust load handling
Reinforced deep groove ball bearings and optimized load distribution allow bevel gearboxes to withstand significant radial and axial forces. No matter how demanding the conditions, you can be assured of high durability, smoother running, and safe operation.
Efficient and reliable operation
Maximize efficiency by minimizing transmission losses — low-friction bearings and precision-cut teeth keep energy use low and performance high. Machines benefit from cooler running and lower power consumption. With less wear and tear, you get consistent long-term reliability.
Easy mechanical integration
Mounting and alignment with equipment are made easier with our standardized flange interfaces and large round output flanges. This reduces your design complexity and ensures a stable, secure connection to downstream components.
Predictable, equidirectional rotation
The output rotation direction in Neugart's bevel gearboxes is consistent regardless of input orientation. This predictability reduces design effort and eliminates the need to compensate for mirrored drive configurations.
Wide ratio options
We offer a broad range of reduction ratios, in some cases up to i=512. This gives your engineers the flexibility to fine-tune speed and torque to match the exact requirements of your application.
Built for durability
Our bevel gearboxes are engineered to withstand real-world operating conditions while maintaining precision. Disc-design planet carriers improve torsional stiffness, while optional sealing and IP protection keep out dust and moisture. In short, your gearbox delivers reliable, long-lasting performance even in demanding environments.

Why choose Neugart as your bevel gearbox manufacturer?
We are gearbox specialists
Instead of trying to make everything on the drivetrain, we focus only on gearboxes. Where other bevel gearbox manufacturers might give you a wider range of good options, we deliver specialized excellence. We’ve been doing this for almost 100 years and can proudly say that our quality is unmatched.
We make integration easy
Our bevel gearboxes are designed with standardized interfaces, modular components, and a flexible configuration system. That means they drop straight into your design without forcing costly rework or delays. We also give your engineers the tools to quickly identify, compare, and integrate the right gearbox—saving you time and reducing risk.
We deliver quality with speed
While our products are engineered with German precision, many configurations are assembled in the USA and supported locally, backed by Neugart’s global manufacturing and distribution network. As a result, we can offer some of the shortest lead times in North America. So not only can we design and develop tailored gearboxes, we can also get them to you in the shortest possible time.
How we help you find the perfect bevel gearbox for your application
If the sheer variety of types of gearboxes makes it difficult for you to decide on the right one, we can help you out. At Neugart, we offer three methods of helping you narrow down your options:
Product Filter
Start simple. Our online Product Filter helps you quickly narrow down potential gearboxes by basic criteria such as size, torque, and shaft orientation. It’s the fastest way to see which right-angle bevel options might fit your design envelope.
Tec Data Finder (TDF)
When you need more detail, the Tec Data Finder takes you further. Enter your required torque, ratio, backlash, or load cycle, and TDF will recommend suitable gearboxes. Instantly download CAD models, datasheets, and comparison tables. Easily validate bevel gearbox options against your project’s requirements.
Neugart Calculation Program (NCP)
For complete drive-train simulation, the Neugart Calculation Program gives you a deeper engineering view. Model the interaction between motor, gearbox, and load to ensure your bevel gearbox selection will perform reliably under real operating conditions.
Frequently asked questions about bevel gearboxes
A bevel gearbox is a type of right-angle gearbox that uses bevel gears to redirect power through 90°. This allows torque and speed to be transmitted efficiently when a straight-line drive isn’t possible.
Both are forms of right-angle gearboxes. Bevel gearboxes transmit power where the shafts meet at an exact point. Hypoid gearboxes are a special form of bevel design where the shafts cross with an offset. Hypoid gearing offers smoother operation, higher torque density, and lower backlash. You can find gearboxes that use hypoid stages within our Precision Line.
Yes. The Neugart WGN series is a right-angle gearbox featuring a spiral bevel stage and is available with a hollow shaft output. This design is ideal for automation applications where cabling, wiring, or other media must pass directly through the gearbox.
Neugart bevel gearboxes are offered in a wide range of ratios; in some models and combinations, up to i=512. This gives engineers the flexibility to fine-tune speed and torque for their specific application. You can use the Tec Data Finder to filter and compare available ratios.
Backlash depends on the selected gearbox series and gearing type. Economy Line gearboxes provide standard backlash suitable for many industrial applications. Precision Line gearboxes with hypoid or helical gearing are optimized for reduced backlash where higher positioning accuracy is required.
Yes. When your machine requires a more application-specific solution, Neugart can support customized configurations based on our modular gearbox platform. Depending on the product series, options may include different bevel gear stages, housings, output interfaces, and mounting configurations. Our engineers work closely with you to ensure the solution fits your technical and integration requirements.
