Special gearboxes are custom-made, customer-specific drive solutions that are designed and manufactured specifically for our customers’ applications. Our high quality standards enable our products to be used in a wide range of applications, from mechanical engineering (e.g., machine tools) to medical technology and sensitive measuring tasks.
Whether you need prototypes or small series production, we are at your side as a partner to develop customized solutions that perfectly match your requirements.
Special gearboxes are individually developed drive systems that we at abp Antriebstechnik design and manufacture precisely to customer specifications. They are used in areas where standard gearboxes are not sufficient due to special requirements in terms of torque, speeds, velocity, installation space, or material properties.
The abp special solutions gearboxes are designed and manufactured for individual operating conditions and specifications such as environment, loads and operating conditions (e.g. temperatures, humidity and dirt). The choice of materials and other design details play a decisive role here.
At abp, we are leaders in the development and manufacture of such special solutions gearboxes and offer innovative drive solutions for a wide range of industries that guarantee maximum efficiency, reliability and durability.
On this page, we have summarized all frequently asked questions about special solutions gearboxes for you. Not the right one for you? Contact us now – we will be happy to advise you personally!
Customized gearboxes are used wherever standard gearboxes are not sufficient due to special requirements in terms of torque, speed, space, or material properties. They enable optimal adaptation to individual requirements and ensure maximum efficiency, maximum reliability, optimal performance, and longevity of the system. This leads to reduced downtime and long-term cost savings.
Typical areas of application are:
The production of gearbox solutions requires close cooperation between engineers and customers to ensure that all relevant factors are taken into account. Depending on the complexity, it can take several weeks to months from the review of CAD data to the design and production of special gearboxes.
The key aspects include:
Application-specific gearboxes differ in their design, function, and application. At abp Antriebstechnik, we develop both classic angular gearboxes and combined or completely newly designed drive systems that are precisely tailored to your requirements.
To ensure that a special solution in gear construction fits your application exactly, precise coordination between you and our design team is crucial. Design is always a joint development process in which your requirements and our technical expertise go hand in hand.
The aim is to define all relevant operating, environmental, and performance parameters as accurately as possible. This is the only way to ensure that the gearbox is optimally tailored to your application and achieves maximum performance, energy efficiency, and service life.
Even with the highest manufacturing quality, custom-made gearboxes require regular maintenance to ensure performance, safety, and service life. Professional maintenance minimizes downtime, prevents damage, and reduces operating costs in the long term.
Our experienced designers and technically skilled employees develop the optimum solution even for complex requirements. Our knowledge of materials and the in-depth expertise we have built up over 25 years of experience guarantee that your projects are implemented efficiently and to the highest quality standards.
We have built up in-depth expertise, particularly in the field of customized solutions. We develop customized products for your individual project quickly and easily. We work alongside you as a partner throughout all phases of the process.
At abp, we pride ourselves on providing personal and honest advice from planning and design to manufacturing—with the highest standards of quality and service. Short communication channels, expert discussions, our own production facilities, and 25 years of experience enable abp Antriebstechnik to implement your requirements and wishes at short notice.

Yes. We can specifically overhaul, modernize, or optimize existing transmissions, whether they are standard or special transmissions. In many cases, modification is significantly more economical than a complete redesign, especially if the basic design of the transmission is still functional.
Our experienced engineers first conduct a detailed analysis of the existing drive. This involves evaluating operating data, wear patterns, temperature behavior, noise levels, material condition, and energy efficiency. Based on this, we develop a concept for adapting the existing gearbox to current or future requirements.
Typical optimization measures include:
The special solutions gearboxes from abp are customized and flexible solutions that can also be used for unusual applications. No challenge is too great for our experts – they develop a wide range of drive concepts with practical ideas. Even small adjustments to a gearbox are often enough to find the perfect solution for your requirements – modified and optimally suited. With our numerous manufacturing options, we at abp are the perfect partner at your side.
Because at abp, we don’t just manufacture your special parts for you. On request, we are at your side as consultants throughout the entire planning phase, from development and production to the handover and assembly of the finished product and beyond. Should maintenance, repair or spare parts production be necessary, you can of course contact our team at any time.
