Grove Gear® Worm Gear Speed Reducers

Grove Gear® has been a trusted name in power transmission since 1947, evolving from a contract gear and machining operation into a leading manufacturer of industrial gear reducers and gearing solutions. Today, Grove Gear products are manufactured in a modern 110,000-square-foot facility and serve a wide range of industrial and specialty applications. Known for dependable performance, energy efficiency, and long service life, Grove Gear offers one of the most extensive gear reducer product lines in North America, providing solutions for virtually every power transmission requirement.

Grove Gear specializes in worm gear speed reducers, ratio multipliers, and custom-engineered gearing solutions designed to deliver reliable speed reduction and torque multiplication in demanding applications. Worm gear reducers work by using a worm shaft and worm gear to reduce motor speed while increasing output torque, helping equipment operate more efficiently and with greater control. These reducers are commonly mounted to electric motors to create a compact, high-performance drive package for industrial machinery and OEM equipment.

From material handling and conveyor systems to cranes, winches, pulp and paper operations, mixers, packaging machinery, and OEM equipment, Grove Gear speed reducers are trusted wherever durability, reliability, and consistent power transmission are critical.
