Standard AC Motor: Why do some gearheads output shaft rotate in the same direction as the motor while others rotate in the opposite direction?

Question 12: Why do some gearheads output shaft rotate in the same direction as the motor while others rotate in the opposite direction?

Answer: Gearheads reduce the motor speed by 1/3 to 1/180. They do not, however, reduce the speed with a single gear, but with several gears The number of speed reductions depends on the gear ratio, so the direction of output shaft rotation differs.
