A Dedicated Gearmotor Range for Poultry & Livestock Farming
The Transtecno PoultryTecno line is a purpose-designed family of gearmotors covering the key mechanical movements required in modern poultry operations.
Feed transport is central to every poultry operation, whether by screw conveyor or chain feeder system. The PoultryTecno range addresses both methods — PX-PU single-stage helical gearboxes drive motorised augers for screw feeding, while POK worm gearmotors are engineered specifically for chain conveyor feeding lines. Beyond feeding, the range extends to trough lifting for cleaning and maintenance, automated window opening and closing using worm gearmotors with optional pre-stage units, and air inlet and tunnel door control via drum kit assemblies fitted to CMM double-reduction worm gear units.
All gearmotors in the PoultryTecno line feature die-cast aluminium housings, ground gears for smooth operation, and permanent synthetic oil long-life lubrication designed to minimise maintenance intervals. A wide selection of input and output flanges and shafts is available, offering a high degree of customisation to suit the specific layout and mechanical requirements of individual farming installations.
More About Poultry GearmotorsConstruction, features and product selection information
Overview
Modern poultry farming relies on automated mechanical systems to manage feeding, ventilation, cleaning and climate control across large shed operations. The Transtecno PoultryTecno gearmotor range has been purpose-built to drive these systems — offering Australian poultry producers a dedicated product line rather than a set of repurposed general industrial units.
Motordrives Australia supplies the full PoultryTecno range, covering single-stage helical gearboxes for auger-driven screw feeders, POK worm gearmotors for chain conveyor feeding lines, CM and CMP worm gearmotors for window and curtain automation, CMG helical in-line and CMB bevel helical gearboxes for additional drive applications, and CMM double-reduction worm gearmotors with drum kit assemblies for air inlet and tunnel door control. All units feature die-cast aluminium housings, ground gears, and permanent synthetic oil lubrication designed for long service life with minimal maintenance.
Selection Guidance
Choosing the right poultry gearmotor starts with understanding your application. The main factors to consider are the type of movement (rotary drive for augers and conveyors, or linear actuation for windows and doors), the torque and speed requirements of the driven equipment, the physical space available for mounting, and the motor supply (single-phase or three-phase).
For screw auger feeding, the PX-PU single-stage helical gearboxes are the typical starting point — they combine an AC motor with a compact helical reducer in an aluminium housing. For chain feeder lines, the POK worm gearmotor is purpose-designed with universal fixing to suit various feeder brands and configurations. Where higher reduction ratios are needed — such as slow, controlled window opening — a CM or CMP worm gearmotor with an optional pre-stage unit provides the necessary gear ratio in a compact package. For air inlets and tunnel doors, the CMM double-reduction worm gearmotor paired with a drum kit belt-and-pulley assembly offers a proven solution.
If you are replacing an existing unit, having the current gearmotor details (model, ratio, motor power and frame size) on hand will help our team recommend the correct replacement. For new installations, providing details of the driven equipment and required output speed and torque allows us to match the most suitable unit from the range.

Where PoultryTecno Gearmotors Are Used6 common applications and sectors
The PoultryTecno range has been developed in collaboration with leaders in the poultry farming sector. These gearmotors can be found across a wide variety of shed and farm automation tasks.
- 01
Screw Feeding Systems
PX-PU single-stage helical gearboxes drive motorised augers that transport feed along screw conveyor lines throughout the shed, handling both small and large quantities as required.
- 02
Chain Feeder Systems
POK worm gearmotors are purpose-designed for chain conveyor feeding lines, providing reliable drive with universal fixing options to suit different feeder configurations.
- 03
Trough Lifting & Maintenance
Feeding troughs need to be raised for hygiene, cleaning and repair. Worm gearmotors from the PoultryTecno line provide controlled lifting and lowering of trough assemblies.
- 04
Window & Curtain Control
Automated opening and closing of shed windows and curtain walls is achieved using CM/CMP worm gearmotors, often combined with a pre-stage unit to deliver the high ratios needed for precise movement.
- 05
Air Inlets & Tunnel Doors
CMM double-reduction worm gearmotors paired with drum kit belt-and-pulley assemblies control air inlets, tunnel doors and wind deflectors for shed climate management.
- 06
Ventilation Equipment
Various gearmotor configurations from the range can be applied to fan drives and louvre systems, supporting the airflow management critical to poultry health and productivity.

FAQs
Common Questions About Poultry Gearmotors
What is the difference between the PX and PU single-stage gearboxes?
Both the PX and PU series share identical reducer ratios and performance characteristics. The key difference is in motor flange configuration — the PX series features a built-in motor flange, while the PU series offers interchangeable motor flanges to accommodate different motorisation requirements. Your selection depends on the motor frame size and mounting arrangement needed for your installation.
Which gearmotor is best for a chain feeding system?
The POK worm gearmotor has been designed specifically for livestock chain feeder lines. It features universal fixing for flexible installation. For screw auger feeding systems, the PX-PU single-stage helical gearboxes are typically more suitable. Our team can help confirm the best option for your setup.
Can these gearmotors be used for automated window control?
Yes. CM and CMP worm gearmotors are commonly used for automated opening and closing of shed windows. A pre-stage unit can be added to achieve higher gear ratios, allowing precise and controlled window movement — particularly useful for windows that are difficult to reach manually.
What is the drum kit used for?
The drum kit is a belt-and-pulley assembly fitted to CMM double-reduction worm gearmotors. It is used in applications such as air inlet control, tunnel door operation and wind deflector movement — all important for managing shed climate and ventilation.
How do I get a quote or place an order for poultry gearmotors?
