Domed CrownTM Curved Design
Reduces fluid pooling and improves chemical runoff, lowering the risk of pathogen formation and ensuring food processing operation remains safe and compliant.

Allow for the selection of a smaller reducer, especially in low-torque or low-duty applications, if the shaft size is dictating the selection, providing the opportunity to downsize product selection (weight, envelope size, cost) and standardize conveyors throughout the facility.
Compliant with IEC 60529 and can withstand washdown nozzle pressure of up to 1450psi as close as 4 inches, making the SS700 Gen 2 Series highly resistant to water ingress during high-pressure washdown.
Protect against potential food traps and rotating elements that pose hazards to operator safety. Compliant with both FSMA and OSHA regulations, installing these covers ensures your product meets the highest safety standards.
Rigorous testing against competitive models proves that our speed reducer uses less electricity to operate food processing equipment, which generates cost savings over time.
Demands a hygienic design to meet the most stringent food-safety requirements. Boston Gear speed reducers with NSF laser marking invoke customer confidence to meet or surpass USDA or any other food regulatory guidelines.
Eliminates the need for an output keyway by using a clamping force to transmit torque resulting in:
The new generation of Boston Gear's SS700 series stainless steel worm gearboxes package the form-fit-function of the original stainless steel speed reducers, with new upgrades and improvements.
A major poultry processing plant in North Carolina faced a difficult challenge on its toughest application – a solid 90-degree transfer. As the conveyor separated whole birds from the main line, birds would bunch up at the 90-degree turn, drastically increasing the torque demand on the conveyor’s motor and speed reducer.
Due to direct contact between the partially processed birds and the transfer line, the entire conveyor was also subject to rigorous washdown, adding even more strain. As a result of the high torque demands and frequent washdowns, the conveyor’s existing competitor speed reducer began to fail every other month.
