    Gearheads -> Planetary

    They come in all the standard NEMA sizes but they're $$$$$$$.

    If you have the time, I get mine off ebay, Bayside or Alpha Gear.

    Typically planetary gearboxes do not have offset shafts. You could save a ton of money if you could use a spur gear. But if you need Planetary in addition to the names above try Mechtrol, CGI, Neugart. They will be marginally lower priced than the ones above

    And Thompson.

    Also, I'm not sure you can get them down in the 10:1 range but Harmonic drives might be another route? See them sometimes on Ebay.
