Flyer: Motor Drive System IE5/IE6
The first synchronous motor that is as easy to use as an asynchronous motor. The permanent magnet inside is intelligently designed to achieve high levels of efficiency and falls into the top energy efficiency classes IE5 and IE6. The drive system consisting of the m550 motor, g500 gearboxes and the current i550 and i650 generation of frequency drives performs remarkably also in dynamic applications.
The new Motor Drive System addresses current and future challenges in a wide range of industrial applications:
- Performance: 300% overload torque accelerates the motor from standstill to full load
- Motor losses: Are reduced by up to 60%
- Reduced hardware costs: between 20% - 50% compared to conventional solutions
- Sustainability: high energy efficiency reduces energy costs and the CO2 footprint by 10%
- Easy design in: Space-saving installation of the motor system thanks to compact design
Where do conveyor systems really waste energy?
Joint measurements in real-world applications reveal that, particularly with belt conveyors, the biggest efficiency losses often occur where you wouldn’t expect them. Lenze and Forbo took a closer look and demonstrated how reducing friction and designing drive systems based on actual demand can cut energy consumption by up to 40%.
