MOVI-C® drive technology for automation

What exactly does drive engineering contribute to your applications and automation solutions? We think it's something really important – diversity! When it comes to drive engineering, diversity gives you the scope and versatility you need to put your solutions into practice, satisfy automation requirements, achieve lean structures and deliver cost-effective processes. Smart, customized drive technology is a key element in your optimum solution.

Diversity centered around applications – that is what it's all about. The range includes gear units for standard and servo applications that come in different sizes and with different outputs, speeds, torques, designs and varied finishes, all combined with asynchronous or synchronous AC motors. Linear motors, electric cylinders, brakes, built-in encoders and diagnostic units provide the finishing touch for this wide-ranging portfolio. Naturally, the products have all the necessary worldwide approvals.

Automation delivered with decentralized drive technology

State-of-the-art drive engineering and automation technology – particularly power electronics – are increasingly melding into each other, with the result that wiring and installation work are eating up more and more time and money. Customers in the mechanical and plant engineering sector need to design machinery, systems and applications that require minimal outlay and materials but can be started up quickly and easily. In many applications and logistics and system concepts, integrated, decentralized drive engineering has the potential to reduce overall costs, which makes it a technically efficient alternative to centralized automation technology.

The MOVI-C® modular automation system offers special components for use in decentralized installations, applications and system topologies, such as the fully integrated mechatronic MOVIGEAR® performance drive system and the pairing of MOVIGEAR® classic with MOVIMOT® flexible electronics, which are installed close to the motor. What’s more, these systems already deliver an efficiency rating of IE5 (to IEC TS 60034-30-2) and boast unsurpassed overall system efficiency. As a result, they combine the advantages of decentralized installation with the benefits of the MOVI-C® modular automation system.
