Innovative drive concepts from NORD
More efficiency in warehouse automation
E-Commerce is booming and so is warehouse automation . Flexible warehouse systems are also in demand in large grocery chain warehouses , and require environmentally friendly , sustainable and intelligent drive concepts . Drive specialist NORD DRIVESYSTEMS is highly familiar with the industry ’ s requirements and offers a variety of dynamic drive solutions which are suited for various applications and requirements in warehouse logistics .
NORD offers customised drive solutions for warehouse logistics for an optimum compromise between investment , operating and maintenance costs . With motor efficiency class IE4 and system efficiency class IES2 , the drive units achieve excellent efficiencies – especially in the partial load and speed range . The latest generation IE5 permanent magnet synchronous motors achieve an even higher energy efficiency and significantly reduces the energy consumption . The constant torque over a wide speed range allows for a targeted version reduction . This minimises administrative expenses , and enables leaner manufacturing , logistics , storage and service processes .
THE DECENTRALISED NORDAC ON FREQUENCY INVERTER
The decentralised NORDAC ON frequency inverter has been developed for horizontal conveyor technology requirements in warehousing , and the NORDAC ON + variant for interaction with the new IE5 + synchronous motor . It is characterised by an integrated Ethernet interface , its ease of maintenance through complete pluggability and an extremely compact design – providing an economical and intelligent plug-andplay solution for IIoT environments .

NORD offers customised drive solutions for warehouse logistics for an optimum compromise between investment , operating and maintenance costs .
The compact , smart frequency inverter for decentralised use can be mounted directly on the geared motor . It covers lower power ranges of up to 2.2 kW and has an energy-saving function in the partial load range . The integrated Ethernet interface reduces the effort for integration into modern automation systems : Whether for ProfiNet , EtherNet / IP or EtherCAT , the required protocol can be easily set via parameters .
MORE EFFICIENCY IN CONVEYOR TECHNOLOGY
The NORDAC FLEX SK 205E series is also ideally suited for applications in warehouse logistics . The compact , decentralised and energy-efficient frequency inverter offers a wide power range of up to 22 kW and enables energy savings over the entire load range . The inverter can be used to control standard asynchronous motors , high-efficiency synchronous motors and brake motors . It can be installed close to the drive in the field or motor-mounted . Power and data cable connections are available as plugin versions . The decentralised system enables short motor and encoder cables as well as short supply cables to sensors . Encoder feedback can be included , for example , for position-controlled transport systems . The large overload capacity of the NORDAC FLEX SK 205E makes dynamic movements with short start and stop times or cyclic operation possible . The integrated POSICON control enables high precision in synchronous and positioning applications .
MODULAR SYSTEM FOR OPTIMAL DRIVE SOLUTIONS
Overall , NORD convinces with a wide range of products in the field of warehousing , including both established basics and high-efficiency products . Users benefit from tailored and reliable drive solutions which ensure an optimum system availability . The NORD modular drive system thus enables an optimum compromise between investment , operating and maintenance costs .
