The RXC Adjustable Speed Drive is a
mechanical variable speed drive utilizing a ring and cone power
train. The drive consists of an input disc, a set of planetary
cones, a control ring, the cam disc and a pressure control cam. This
unique design provides a speed range of 0 - 800 RPM.
The RXC offers increased low speed torque, 500% starting torque and
a 200% overload capacity throughout its entire speed range. It is
ideally suited for rugged, trouble free service in the worst
environments including explosion proof, chemical processing and
washdown applications.
Applications suited for the RXC Adjustable Speed Drive include
rotary feeders, blenders, progressive cavity pumps, conveyors, and
any other application requiring high starting torque, increased low
speed torque and wide speed ranges.
