High Speed Drive Packages

Description

Our High Speed Drive Packages deliver exceptional belt speeds from 400 ft/min up to 2000 ft/min and beyond, engineered specifically for demanding applications where speed directly impacts profitability. Available in both direct coupled inline and bottom mounted configurations, these premium drive systems provide the power and precision required for modern e-commerce fulfillment, automated sortation, and high-throughput manufacturing operations. With motor sizes from 1/4 HP to 1 HP and compatibility across 115V-1PH, 230/460-3PH, and Brushless DC power options, these drives represent the pinnacle of conveyor speed technology.

High-Speed Throughput

Built for the "blur stage," these drives process 200+ cartons per minute (up to 96,000 per 8-hour shift). Synthetic lubricants, enhanced bearings, and thermal management ensure reliable 24/7 performance.
