Motion Control Handbook: Gear Reducer

Gear-reducers, also known as speed reducers, are a component of many mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic motors. Essentially it's a gear or series of gears combined in such a way as to increase the torque of a motor. Basically, the torque increases in direct proportion to the reduction of rotations per unit of time.
