The reduction motor refers to the integrated body of the reduction gear and the motor (motor). This type of integration can also be referred to as a gear motor or a gear motor.

Usually, a professional reducer production factory integrates and assembles the complete set for supply. Speed reduction motors are widely used in the steel industry, machinery industry, and other industries. The advantages of using a reduction motor are simplified design and space saving. After World War II, the rapid development of military electronic equipment promoted the development and production of micro reduction motors and DC reduction motors in countries such as the United States and the Soviet Union. With the continuous development of the deceleration motor industry, more and more industries and enterprises have applied deceleration motors, and a group of enterprises have also entered the deceleration motor industry. Currently, countries such as Germany, France, the UK, the US, China, and South Korea maintain a leading position in the world market for micro and DC gearmotors. The Chinese micro speed reduction motor and DC speed reduction motor industry was founded in the 1950s. Starting from meeting the needs of weapon equipment matching, it has gone through stages of imitation, self-design, research and development, and large-scale manufacturing. It has formed an industrial system with complete product development, large-scale production, key components, key materials, specialized manufacturing equipment, testing instruments, and other supporting facilities, and continuously improving internationalization.
