Mining Drives and Jackshafts

ACS has engineered and manufactured belt drives and rock crusher jackshafts for the mining industry for over 25 years. We have well over 150 units in the field domestically and around the world, including South America, Europe, Australia and Asia. Most often these mining drives operate crushers for mineral processing, but they have also been used for pumping systems.

We provide industrial drives and jackshafts for applications that typically range up to 1500 Horsepower, but we can provide even more powerful drives if the need is there. Additionally, we provide drive units with or without the motor and, if necessary, design custom gearing for the application.

Let us help you with machinery sizing, power demand calculations, and electric drive integration—reach out today.

Industrial Drive Applications

ACS designs and builds industrial drives and belt tensioner devices for applications across multiple industries.  We work with the client to understand the desired operation of the machinery and develop the proper drive style and size to increase efficiency and decrease downtime.

Belt Tensioners and Idlers

ACS is well versed in designing custom belt tensioning units for existing belt driven equipment, which increase efficiency and reduce maintenance costs. Using an ACS belt tensioner, the efficiency of your belt driven machine increases due to the larger angle of wrap on the drive pulley. A belt tensioner also ensures consistently proper tension, reducing belt wear and average loads on the pulley bearings.

Additionally, a properly designed idler reduces belt replacement time by eliminating the need to move your drive pulley and realign afterward. Our idlers have optional indicators to identify if a belt is loosening or needs to be replaced, which reduces unexpected belt failure.

Our belt tensioners increase efficiency, increase uptime in operation, and decrease downtime for maintenance.
