2.13 Jack Shaft Drive
Due to the large belt pull the motor shaft and
bearings must handle, a system with the motor
sheave mounted directly on the shaft would require
a special crusher drive motor that is very expensive.
To minimize motor cost, we recommend a jack
shaft drive design (refer to Figure 2-14) for use in
conjunction with our recommended V-belt drive.
