I think it is a small electrical motor

It deals with short sheet so I do not have a lot of context. Another sentene I found in another sheet.

@ Asker Overall context? The problem is that 'gearbox' in EN is ambiguous: it may mean a box that enables you to change gear ratios (as in a car) OR a box that simply (normally) reduces the rotational speed of a motor to the slower speed usually required by most driven items.

So we need enough of your context to know what type of 'motor' this is (electric, or other?) and whether this is a fixed-ratio gearbox or a speed-changing one? And whether it does indeed reduce the motor speed (the normal case) or increase it (less common).
Unless they have a VFD, most electric motors tend to run at a limited number of more-or-less fixed speeds, usually dictated by the powerline frequency in the country concerned (normally 50 or 60 Hz, unless for aircraft (400 Hz). Hence why many applications that require a specific end speed are likely to need some kind of a gearbox in order to produce the right speed to drive the particular equipment concerned.

neutral Tony M : The way the expression is used here doesn not seem to suggest this is in fact a combination of motor + gearbox.
