Your right angle drive looks like the drives I saw at Surplus Center: https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=13-1461 https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=13-1464 https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=13-1441 https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=13-1465 I thought they would be a good start for a robot arm. The higher ratio units might not be good for ball screws, but might be perfect for arms and turntables. There are a ton of other right angle drives available but these seemed especially useful at a decent price.
