Plug & play drives for conveying tasks

07 June 2017

New from Nord Drivesystems is the Nordac Link series of plug & play drives. Coded plug-in connectors for power, communications, sensors, and actuators enable fast, safe installation and commissioning of these new AC vector drives and motor starters.

LEDs that indicate switching states, operation modes, and signal states allow operators to diagnose errors directly on site. Maintenance and control switches on the devices facilitate plant servicing and system set-up.

Designed for flexible configuration, Nordac Link drives are said to be especially suitable for conveying applications, but can also be used with other machines and systems.

Integrated functionality ranges from rotary encoder support and brake management to PI control and sequence control through an integrated PLC. The drives feature a high overload capacity. They enable very precise control of either asynchronous or synchronous motors and reliably deliver full torque even at zero speed.

Moreover, the field distribution systems provide extensive monitoring functions to protect the mains, the motor, and the driven machine. Power supply can be daisy-chained from one drive to the next. This reduces cabling, particularly in complex applications with hundreds of drive axes.
