Speed Reducers.
     

Cotta speed reducers match engine speed to driven equipment speed allowing both the engine and load to operate at peak efficiency. These compact and heavy duty gearboxes are designed for use with the commercial offerings of major engine manufacturers.

Cotta engine mounted speed reducers are available with SAE flyweeel housings from #5 to #00, ratios to 8, and horsepower capacity to 2200. Above 2200 HP, remote mount models are generally used.

 

Flywheel connection options include over center clutches, air clutches, drive plates and torsional couplings. Independent mount units are also available. Cotta speed decreasers are easily modified to meet special application needs.

Typical applications are, pumps, generators, rock crushers, compressors, mud pumps, blenders, and wood chippers. Some speed reducers have side load capability for belt driven applications.

Many pre-designed special purpose speed decreasers are available. If our catalog offerings do not meet your needs, please ask a Cotta Sales Engineer about a modified standard or custom speed reducer.

Note: the following table contains generalized information. many features such as clutch size and bell housing selection affect weight and installation dimensions. Ratios differ from engine to anti engine rotation. Click on an individual model to get exact dimensions, ratios, and available options.

  • All dimensions are in inches.
  • Bell housing are standard for the model shown. Chart dimension "A" is base upon that standard. Consult individual spec sheets for optional bell housing dimensions.
  • Standard output shaft location for speed reducers is 6 o'clock to the input (as shown).
  • Cotta speed reducers are designed to be driven clockwise facing the input shaft.
  • Refer to individual spec sheets for speed limitations.
  • Speed reducers require rear supports.

    Note: in order to specify a speed reducer we will need the following information:
    • Input speed
    • ideal output speed
    • flywheel housing size
    • flywheel connection requirement (clutch, drive plate, torsional coupling, etc.)
    • direction of rotation (engine or anti engine)
    • type of driven equipment
