Engineered for demanding duty, supported locally — sized, started up, and stocked by Advanced Industries.
The ABB ACS880 is ABB’s industrial drive platform, built for the hardest-working motors in the plant. Where the ACS580 covers general-purpose duty, the ACS880 is designed for demanding, high-torque, and continuous-process applications — and it uses ABB’s Direct Torque Control (DTC) for precise, responsive motor control even without feedback.
Advanced Industries is an ABB-certified drives distributor, and our value is local depth. Our in-house team is ABB-certified to start up and troubleshoot the ACS880 drives you purchase from us, and we stock ACS880-01 wall-mounted drives and key option cards (including EtherNet/IP FEIP adapters and encoder interface cards) across a spread of amperage ratings. When a critical drive fails, that stock is often the difference between a same-day recovery and a multi-week wait.

North Texas Cement Plant, ~250 ABB Drives
Half a day of labor by one employee. No hardware, no downtime, no capital. Two years on, no performance impact on variable- or constant-torque loads — and $96,000 a year off the energy bill.
What Is a Variable Speed Drive?
A two-minute primer on what a VFD does, why running a motor at part speed saves so much energy, and where an industrial drive like the ACS880 fits on demanding, high-torque loads. Worth a watch before you fill in the sizing form.
