Energy-efficient and intelligent drive solutions from 12 to 14 November 2024 in Hall 3A, Stand 451 in Nuremberg
The trade fair presentation will focus on energy efficiency, IE5+ motor technology and decentralised drive electronics with new functional safety features. In addition, flexible and intelligent frequency inverters and the updated NORDCON software will be presented. With these high-efficiency drive solutions from its wide range of modular products, NORD covers a variety of automation applications and positions itself as an innovative partner with solution expertise for more than 100 industries in a dynamically evolving industrial world.
NORD’s IE5+ synchronous motors stand for energy efficiency and operational reliability. Their power varies between 0.35 kW and 4 kW, depending on the version. They surpass the highest defined efficiency class and are characterised by their compact, hygienic design in a very small installation space. Motors are available in various versions – as a TENV smooth motor, as a TEFC motor with cooling fins and as an integrated DuoDrive geared motor. IE5+ synchronous motors with efficiencies of up to 95% over a wide torque range also provide optimum consumption performance in partial load and partial speed ranges. With the combination of IE5+ motors and NORDAC frequency inverters, NORD offers one of the most efficient drive systems currently available on the market.
NORDAC ON/ON+ decentralised drive electronics
“Just in time for SPS – Smart Production Solutions 2024, it is time for the next step in expanding the product portfolio of our electronic drive technology”, says Jörg Niermann, Marketing Manager at NORD DRIVESYSTEMS. “Our newest member of the decentralised NORDAC ON frequency inverter family will receive new functional safety features in the future: In addition to STO and SS1, they will then also feature SLS, SMS and SSM.” Based on the Profisafe and FSoE interfaces, integration into existing Ethernet environments will also be possible.
The decentralised NORDAC ON/ON+ frequency inverters are characterised by their compact design, full plug-in capability and high reliability. NORDAC ON was developed for applications with asynchronous motors whereas NORDAC ON+ was developed for the combination with the IE5+ synchronous motor. The inverters are designed for a power range from 0.37 kW to 3.7 kW. Thanks to their plug-and-play function, they significantly reduce the wiring effort and provide a maintenance-friendly and economical solution for modern production environments. Further features are PLC on board for PLC functionality and drive-related functions as well as an integrated Ethernet interface. PROFINET, EtherNET/IP and EtherCAT can be adjusted via parameters; this is beneficial in the packaging industry, for example.
