MOTOX FD48B-LA80M4 Parallel Shaft Gearmotor
The iconic MOTOX gearmotor series was originally created and engineered by FLENDER[cite: 20]. Following Siemens' acquisition of Flender, MOTOX was integrated into Siemens' drive portfolio under the 2KJ catalog line (2KJ1402 for FD48B)[cite: 20]. Subsequently, Siemens carved out its heavy-duty motors and gearmotors business under the INNOMOTICS brand[cite: 20]. Today, MOTOX products have transitioned back to the original manufacturing plants and authentic OEM supplier channels, ensuring 100% exact design continuity, mechanical interchangeability, and original quality standards[cite: 20].
The MOTOX FD48B-LA80M4 is a 3-stage parallel shaft helical gearmotor designed for narrow installation profiles where flat, space-saving drive layouts are required[cite: 20]. Cataloged under Siemens 2KJ order code 2KJ1402[cite: 20], the FD48B size delivers nominal output torques up to 450 Nm and is paired with 0.55 kW LA80M4 motors[cite: 20]. Featuring high mechanical efficiency (94%), rigid cast iron housing construction, and high overhung load capacity[cite: 20], MOTOX F series gearmotors are available in versatile configurations (foot FD48B, hollow shaft FDA48B, flange FDF48B, shrink disc FAD48B, and shaft-mounted torque arm FAAD48B)[cite: 20] ideal for crane hoists, monorail conveyors, agitators, mixers, and automated warehouse lines[cite: 20].
