Drive Benefits

Hi-Torque MVSDs®

  • Hi-Torque MVSDs® have higher torque. A 10 HP MVSD will provide similar torque to that of a 15 HP invertor drive.
  • Hi-Torque MVSDs® translate into smaller motors that cost less to buy and are less expensive to operate.
  • MVSDs do not require an electrical circuit, reducing installation costs.
  • MVSDs tolerate overload, upsets, with no circuit/motherboards. Overloads are common in agricultural applications.
  • MVSDs tolerate harsh environments, dirt, dust and just keep running.
  • Permanently lubricated bushings and sealed bearings.
  • Interchangeable collets provide easy installation and removal.
  • Economical and reliable speed change on the fly.
  • Utilize the ideal speed without changing sheaves or belts.
  • Customize and enhance your drives with drive accessories and components.
