Decentralised drive
technology for the digital
factory of the future
NORDAC LINK: The variable
solution for all requirements
This drive control for flexible
decentralised installation is available as
frequency inverter (up to 7.5 kW) or motor
starter (up to 3 kW) and provides what
it takes to enable fast commissioning,
simple operation and maintenance. With
NORDAC LINK all connections are made
with simple plug connectors. In addition
to the high plug-in capability, integrated
maintenance switches and switches for
manual operation ensure a high level of
user-friendliness.
The future of production is modular, drive technology can be integrated
flexible and autonomous. This requires into all automation architectures and
new systems with decentralised significantly reduces plant design costs
intelligence, which can cope with the
increasing complexity of the processes.
NORD DRIVESYSTEMS supplies a
wide selection of decentralised drive
technology with frequency inverters
which can be adapted to any required
application and can be flexibly integrated
into the plant.
Decentralised frequency inverters offer
many advantages: They save space in
control cabinets, reduce cable and wiring
costs, simplify maintenance and therefore
increase the efficiency of the entire
drive system. With its extensive range
of modular products for decentralised
drive electronics NORD DRIVESYSTEMS
covers practically all requirements and
applications. The drive components
have a power range up to 22 kW and an
integrated PLC as standard to enable
a high level of plug-in capability. They
can be freely configured, to adapt them
to any application. NORD decentralised
NORD has the drive unit of the
future
NORD drive units are networked,
autonomous and scalable –and therefore
meet all of the conditions which are
necessary for integration into an Industry
4.0 architecture. The inverters’ integrated
PLC is able to reduce the load on the
higher level control system and take on
independent control tasks. This allows a
plant design with autonomous production
groups and production islands. The
freely programmable PLC processes the
data from sensors and actuators and
can initiate control sequences, as well
as communicating drive and application
data to a control centre, networked
components or to cloud storage. This
enables continuous condition monitoring
and therefore forms the basis for
predictive maintenance concepts as well
as optimum plant dimensioning.
NORDAC FLEX: Ultimate
flexibility
Flexible to install, easy to service: With its
power range of up to 22kW, its large range
of functions and wide range of accessories,
the NORDAC FLEX is the most flexible
NORD inverter. With simple parameter
transfer via EEPROM memory, installation
and servicing are quick and reliable.
Thanks to their modular structure, NORD
inverters can be easily extended and offer
an impressive variety of scenarios for
use in Industry 4.0 automation networks.
Their fields of use range from conveyor
technology and intralogistics, to drive
tasks in the packaging and food industries
as well as pump applications and general
mechanical engineering.
