A unique feature of the DirectDrive
system allows drilling fluids to pass
through the hollow shaft of the AC motor.

 No
gearbox.
Plenty of torque.
That's LTI's DirectDrive™.
DirectDrive™ Top Drive systems from LeTourneau Technologies™ Drilling Systems establish
a whole new standard for performance and reliability.
The key to the LTI DirectDrive Top Drive is its patented
AC electric motor design, which eliminates the need
for a gearbox, along with associated
bearing and gearing problems and fluid leaks. The result is a low
maintenance, high-performance, high-reliability top
drive that delivers more torque than any other system
of its kind.
A fully integrated system.
Available in 250-, 350-, 500-, 750-, and 1000-ton models,
LTI DirectDrive Top Drive systems include everything
necessary to improve drilling efficiency, performance,
and reliability. These systems offer high torque for optimized drilling performance,
while its redundant speed sensing capability provides
for increased operational reliability. In addition,
the main stem assembly can be replaced without having
to remove the motor or unrig, reducing the downtime
required for servicing. Built solid to meet the demands
of the deepest drilling applications, each DirectDrive
Top Drive system is manufactured to the highest standards. The system includes:
- Hydraulic Counterbalance
System
- LeTourneau Technologies™ Power Systems Through-Shaft Design AC Drilling Motor
- Integral Disc Brake System
- Motor Cooling System
- Counterbalance System
- Hydraulic Rotary Head System with Locking Clamps
- Pipe Handling System with Dual Drive 360° Rotational

- IBOP System
- Electrical / Control Service Loop Kit
- Fluid Service Loop Kit
- Derrick Termination Kit
- Top Drive Dolly
- Block Dolly
- Elevator Links
- 1,000-ton Hook Load Capacity Main Beam
AC motors deliver unmatched performance.
Delivering the highest level of torque in their
class, the LTI Power Systems motors used in DirectDrive Top Drives
also provide unparalleled reliability. High-density
magnetic steel and windings put more "copper in
the slot", and deliver up to twice the peak torque
as conventional AC motors, from zero RPM through rated
RPM.
These motors also include more total copper and iron content, providing additional thermal mass, allowing them
to withstand the higher temperatures associated with
continuous operation.
DirectDrive Top Drive systems from LTI have established
a new standard in drilling performance, reliability,
and maintainability.
