The Compact Clock Hand Gearbox is designed for pillar clocks, medium-sized façade clocks and architectural clocksrequiring a compact and reliable mechanical transmission.
Its 1:12 gear ratio converts rotation from a single minute-hand drive input into coordinated movement of both clock hands. The minute hand completes one revolution per hour, while the hour hand completes one revolution every twelve hours.
The gearbox features coaxial output shafts for the hour and minute hands, a precision gear transmission and a compact mechanical assembly. Its design allows installation behind the clock dial, making it particularly suitable for applications with limited mounting space.
Recommended for clock hands up to 1 m in length, the gearbox can be integrated into mechanical clock drive systems and used in both new installations and the modernisation of existing clocks.
Designed for clock manufacturers, installers and system integrators, the Compact Clock Hand Gearbox provides a practical solution for reliable hour and minute hand movement.
