A gear motor uses two meshing spur gears mounted in a closed housing with inlet and outlet ports. One gear is idle while the other is connected to an output shaft. High pressure oil from a pump forces the gears to rotate in opposite directions, transferring the rotational displacement from one gear to the output shaft. The low pressure oil then exits through the outlet port. Gear motors are simple in design, suitable for medium speed and low torque applications like hydraulic systems operating at 200-300 rpm and 10-300 bar pressure.

Two meshing spur gears with shafts are mounted on the bearing located in the closed housing. The housing is provided with inlet and outlet port. One of the gears acts idle and the other is mounted on the output shaft projecting out of the casing. The high pressure oil led from the pump, forces the gear in mesh to move in opposite directions. The rotational displacement of the gear is transferred to the output shaft. The low pressure oil is delivered out through the outlet port.
