Regal Rexnord
The mining industry continues to consolidate on a global basis while, at the same time, the demand for coal, minerals, and metals continues to increase due to emerging economies and infrastructure.
Reduced Maintenance
Minimizing downtime is essential to optimizing production. Our industry-hardened solutions ensure protection against the harshest conditions for long-term reliability and continuous production.
System Savings
We are a leader in ultra-efficient motors, VFDs, and gearing that provide energy savings around the clock to reduce operating cost of energy-intense processes, therefore, lowering the cost of ownership.
Bulk Conveyor Solution
Challenge
The conveyor requirements call for high efficiency, ease-of-maintenance products that reduce downtime with high reliability in the harshest of environments. Most conveyor systems are a hodge-podge of mismatched components and parts. Additionally, vendors never meet the end user’s expectations due to their limited grasp of the complexity of the application.
Solution
With over 100 years of engineering know-how and expertise in mining applications and 1000s of installations, we provide a motor gear drive that maximizes system efficiency. The mechanical package reduces the ingress of water and dust allowing for increased uptime. By offering one-point of system responsibility for the conveyor components, bearings, couplings, VFDs and motor gear drive, overall savings are higher due to our single source approach.
A Mile-High Problem
The existing application incorporated a 50 HP Division 1 Class II Group F explosion-proof motor with a service factor of 1.0. Initially, upon commission of the mine, all went as planned; however, as production picked up, increased downtime was experienced causing production losses. The motor had been replaced three times with the same brand based on nameplate data.

Exceptional Solutions that Solve Problems
We offer an array of exceptional solutions for the mining and minerals industry. Our innovations include high efficiency ATEX and Hazardous Duty® motors, helical bevel high efficiency gear drives, Solid state starters, and medium voltage VFDs that are “Performance Matched” to our motors. PMAC integrated motors provide IE4 efficiencies for a myriad of mining applications.
A Blue Chip Series® XRI®-XP Division 1, Class I & II, Groups C, D, F & G motor with a 1.15 Service Factor was offered. The mile-high altitude, higher temperatures on high production days, and temporary overloads due to voltage or load variation had caused the exiting motor to exceed its nameplate rating and fail. The Marathon® motor operates well within its design parameters. An added advantage is the NEMA Premium® efficiencies that re
