Mining, Quarrying and Aggregates

Motortronics™ VMX series soft starter is a proven workhorse within the mining, quarrying, and aggregates sectors — providing proven reliability in harsh environments. These sectors consume nearly 10% of the world's market for electrical motors and control systems.

A Proven Winner in Harsh Conditions

The Motortronics™ soft starter range has a proven record of reliability and application suitability for all conveyor and crusher types. The VMX series accommodates both unloaded and loaded starts with no adjustment — no other manufacturer's product has this capability.

Advanced Pedestal Function

An advanced 'Automatic Pedestal' function starts the ramp from the actual breakaway torque of the load by automatically raising the voltage until the motor and load begins to pull away — virtually eliminating inrush currents while still achieving a high-quality soft start.
