X2 / X2P (Sieg / Paulimot) Mini Mill Belt Drive Conversion Kit

Precision belt drive conversion kit for X2 and X2P mini milling machines. Designed to replace the original gear drive system for quieter operation, reduced vibration, and higher usable spindle speeds. Custom-built and shipped worldwide.

Overview

This precision belt drive conversion kit is designed for X2 and X2P model mini milling machines. It replaces the original gear-driven transmission with a smooth and reliable belt drive system, delivering quieter operation, reduced vibration, and improved long-term reliability — without requiring any permanent modifications to the machine.

Each kit is individually manufactured to order, allowing precise quality control and compatibility adjustments for different X2 mini mill variants.

Why Convert to a Belt Drive?

• Significantly quieter operation compared to gear-driven systems.
• Reduced vibration for improved surface finish.
• Lower mechanical wear and reduced maintenance.
• Wider usable spindle speed range.
• Improved reliability under continuous use.

Belt & Pulley Design Notes

Polyurethane V-belts are used to ensure minimal flex resistance, minimal power loss, and maximum belt life. Cloth-coated or rubber belts are not suitable for small diameter pulleys and are therefore not used in this design.

The spindle pulley is designed without a countersink for the spindle nut, allowing easier machining and straightforward installation. An installation video is available for reference.

Important Measurement Information

(Please Read Before Ordering)

Different manufacturers use slightly different dimensions on X2-type mini mills. Please verify the following measurements before placing a pre-order.

Motor Mounting Plate Hole Spacing

• Sieg X2 standard: 49.5 mm (center-to-center, square pattern).
• Other brands may use 52 mm, 50 mm, 48 mm, or 45 mm.

If your machine does not use the 49.5 mm spacing, please inform me during the pre-order process. The appropriate mounting plate will be manufactured for your machine.

Pulley Bore and Keyway Sizes (Standard Sieg X2)

• Small pulley: 9 mm bore with 3 mm keyway
• Large pulley: 30 mm bore with 5 mm keyway

If your machine uses different shaft diameters or keyway sizes, please provide the correct measurements. Parts can be manufactured accordingly.

If these dimensions do not match and no measurements are provided, the kit will not fit your mill.
