Hypoid gearboxes are high-precision, high-performance offset gearboxes. These dynamic transmissions meet the high demands of our time in every respect. They are powerful and compact. It is not without reason that they are used worldwide in robotics and for highly dynamic applications. Hypoid gearboxes are also known colloquially as bevel gearboxes.

Hypoid gearboxes are spiral bevel gearboxes. The advantage of a hypoid gearbox is that the bevel pinion is provided with a larger spiral angle due to the axle offset. This increases the total overlap of the gearing. For this reason, hypoid gears are able to transmit more torque in the same installation space. This results in a larger number of possible gear ratios and a higher possible transmission ratio.

Due to the high sliding component in the gearing, particularly smooth running and very low backlash can be achieved.
