The Transtecno AC IRON range is designed for industrial applications that need a stronger gearbox platform than light duty aluminium units can provide. Built around robust cast iron housings, the range includes ITH helical inline gearmotors, ITB helical bevel gearmotors and ITS helical parallel shaft gearmotors for conveyors, processing equipment, handling systems, machinery builds and plant upgrades across Australia.
Heavy duty ITB helical bevel cast iron gearmotors for industrial machinery requiring robust construction, right angle drive configuration and high torque capacity.

View ProductThe AC IRON range is Transtecno's cast iron gearmotor platform for applications with higher loads, heavier duty cycles and more demanding mechanical requirements.
The range covers three core gearbox layouts. ITH inline gearmotors are used when a straight through drive arrangement is preferred. ITB bevel helical gearmotors suit right angle installations where the motor needs to sit perpendicular to the driven shaft. ITS parallel shaft gearmotors suit offset shaft arrangements and shaft mounted machinery, including conveyor and handling equipment where compact installation matters.
Across the range, AC IRON gearmotors use robust cast iron housings, synthetic oil lubrication, modular input and output arrangements, flexible coupling or motor sleeve connection options, and an epoxy powder coated RAL 7016 finish. This makes the range a strong option for Australian manufacturers, OEMs, maintenance teams and project engineers who need practical gearmotor support rather than a generic catalogue listing.
The Transtecno AC IRON range is built for applications where a heavier duty cast iron gearbox platform is preferred over lighter aluminium housings. It gives Australian industrial buyers a practical path across inline, bevel helical and parallel shaft layouts while keeping the selection focused on real operating conditions rather than just nominal motor power.
The three core layouts cover different installation needs. ITH inline gearmotors suit straight through drive arrangements, ITB bevel helical units suit right angle layouts where space and shaft orientation matter, and ITS parallel shaft gearmotors suit compact offset drives, conveyors and shaft mounted applications. Across the range, cast iron housings, modular arrangements and synthetic oil lubrication help support demanding duty cycles and long term industrial use.
Choosing the right cast iron gearmotor depends on the driven load, output speed, torque demand, duty cycle, mounting position and shaft arrangement. Replacement enquiries are usually easier when you can share the existing nameplate details, overall photos and any available ratio or output data.
For new machinery or plant upgrades, Motordrives Australia can help compare the AC IRON layouts and narrow the selection to the most suitable configuration for the application. This collection page is ready for individual cast iron gearmotor product pages to be added as they are created.
AC IRON gearmotors suit industrial applications where the drive system needs to handle repeated loading, steady operation, mechanical shock or a more demanding duty cycle. They are commonly considered for new machinery builds, replacement gearmotor enquiries, plant upgrades and custom power transmission projects.
Cast iron gearmotors are commonly used on conveyors that require controlled output speed, reliable torque and strong gearbox housings.
ITH, ITB and ITS configurations can support handling systems, transfer equipment, indexing machinery and driven roller applications.
The range may be suitable for processing and packaging machinery where output speed, mounting orientation and drive reliability need to be selected carefully.
Right angle, inline and parallel shaft options give machinery builders flexibility when fitting gearmotors into compact packaging equipment layouts.
Cast iron gearmotors can suit augers, conveyors and handling systems used in agricultural processing and bulk material movement.
Maintenance teams can use the AC IRON range for replacement drives, production equipment upgrades and new machinery installations.
Heavy duty gearmotor construction is useful for auxiliary equipment, transfer systems and plant applications exposed to demanding operating loads.
Gearmotors can support mechanical drive requirements in pumps, screens, mixers and process equipment where torque and duty cycle must be reviewed.
OEMs can use the modular AC IRON platform to select a drive layout that suits machine footprint, shaft orientation and performance targets.
Controlled output speed and multiple gearmotor layouts make the range suitable for automated handling, indexing and production line equipment.
The more detail you can provide, the faster our team can assess the correct AC IRON gearmotor option. You do not need to know every specification before contacting us, but the following details help us recommend the right direction and avoid under sizing or incorrect shaft layouts.
AC IRON gearmotors should be selected against the application, not only the frame size. Service factor, radial load, axial load, mounting position and operating temperature can all affect the correct gearbox choice.
Motordrives Australia supports industrial buyers who need more than a part number. Whether you are replacing a failed unit, specifying a drive for new machinery or comparing gearmotor layouts for a project, our team can help you work through the technical details and request the right configuration.
Motordrives Australia works closely with Transtecno products and understands how the AC IRON range fits into industrial drive applications. That helps customers compare ITH, ITB and ITS options with practical selection advice.
We look at operating load, required output speed, torque, mounting position, shaft arrangement and service conditions before recommending a suitable gearmotor direction.
Industrial gearmotors are not one size fits all. Our enquiry process gives buyers a clearer path to the right product, especially when replacing an existing unit or specifying a drive for a custom machine.
The AC IRON range includes ITH inline speed reducers, ITB bevel helical gear reducers and ITS parallel shaft gear reducers. These are cast iron gearmotor options intended for heavier industrial applications where strength, modularity and correct sizing are important.
A cast iron gearmotor is often considered where the application has higher torque demand, heavier duty cycles, stronger mechanical loading, more frequent starts or harsher operating conditions. The correct choice still depends on your service factor, output speed, shaft loading and installation details.
ITH units are inline helical gearmotors for straight through drive layouts. ITB units are bevel helical gearmotors for right angle drive arrangements. ITS units are parallel shaft gearmotors for offset shaft and shaft mounted applications.
The most useful details are photos of the existing nameplate, gearbox layout, motor power, output speed or ratio, mounting position, shaft dimensions and application details. If you do not have all of this information, send what you can and our team can help identify the next step.
Yes. For new machinery, it helps to provide the required torque, output speed, duty cycle, load type, mounting arrangement and any space constraints. We can then help determine whether an inline, bevel helical or parallel shaft AC IRON gearmotor is the better fit.
Outdoor or corrosive environments need to be reviewed before selection. The installation should include suitable protection from weather and the operating environment should be declared during the enquiry so the gearmotor can be assessed for the application.
Send through your application details, existing unit information or project requirements and Motordrives Australia will help you assess the right Transtecno AC IRON gearmotor option for your operating conditions.
