Introduction to Reeves Variable Speed The variable speed drive has two broad functions in industry: 1 – To provide a complete range of speeds to enable optimum operation of individual machines or equipment. 2 – To permit accurate control of production flow through related machinery an
Reeves Motodrives remain a very effective means by which to transmit a variable speed in both high load and varying load applications. Far from subsiding, demand for Reeves Motodrives has actually increased over the past few years. Reeves Catalogue We are asked – a lot – f
November Drives is a part of the total All Torque Transmissions business, acquired in 2010. The core business of November Drives is Reeves mechanical belt variators. Reeves History Reeves mechanical belt variators were originally designed and developed in the United States and were f
Reeves belt replacement is a requirement, as Reeves Motodrives transmit very high torques over a significant speed range. The Reeves variable speed belt that transmits these high loads is a heavy duty belt manufactured specifically for the task. It is constructed from heat and oil r
The Reeves Drive (also known as Variable-Diametre Pulley (VDP)) is a form of Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that has been around for 100 years. The technology is well-proven, and today is still utilised in the Reeves mechanical speed variators that we manufacture at All Tor

Reeves Vari-Speed transmissions are an ancient, somewhat obsolete yet still very effective speed reducer that is very good at regulating speed. Page Engineering was the original agent for Reeves Vari-Speed reducers, manufacturing under license in Australia from 1946 to 1960, when the
When we had a Reeves Motodrive come in to our Preston office for a routine overhaul, our customer asked us to give it a thorough run through to make sure that it went back in perfect condition. The variable speed pulleys had given many years of trouble-free service, but required repla
Since acquiring November Drives in 2010 and taking over manufacturing duties at Preston, All Torque Transmissions is proud to say that Reeves Motodrives continue to be made in Australia. Not only do we do all of the machining for our units, but we also give work to various periphera
Sometimes somthing comes through the workshop that is so amazing that one has to wonder how equipment manages to function at all before failing. The image to the right is of a Reeves variable speed pulley, that normally has a solid ROUND shaft. As you can see by the amount of metalli
