Recovers energy

The Hänel EcoDrive lift system for intralogistics tasks uses the compact Mitsubishi Electric FR-A741 frequency inverter with integrated energy recovery function. The Hänel Lean-Lift is a fully automatic, heightoptimised storage system.

If the FR-A741 with integrated energy recovery function is used, it will convert kinetic energy produced during the downward movement of the extractor (load-carrying device) into electrical energy and feed it back into the electrical supply system. It can then be used at another location, eg. by other Lean-Lifts within a group.

According to the travel capacity of the lift, up to 40% of the energy required for the downward movement can be recovered and fed into the power supply system. CO2 emissions can also be reduced.
