A two-speed press drive is manufactured as a complete assembly eliminating the requirement that the drive be assembled at the location of the press. The two-speed drive includes a stationary quill, an output shaft and a planetary gear set. The planetary gear set includes a first sun gear connected to the stationary quill, a second sun gear rotatably connected to the stationary quill, a planetary gear carrier rotatably connected to the stationary quill and three compound planetary gears rotatably connected to the carrier and meshing with both the first and second sun gears. The input to the two-speed drive is through the planetary gear carrier. A high speed clutch connects the carrier directly to the output shaft for high speed operation. A low speed clutch connects the second sun gear to the output shaft for high speed operation. A housing in conjunction with the carrier define a sealed cavity within which the components of the drive operate.
