To coordinate more than one aspect of a process, variable-speed drives must be able to communicate with many devices. To illustrate, on a bottle labeling system, the drive must be able to precisely ...

For many retrofit projects, the use of a VFD seems like a “no brainer.” Drives are now cheaper and more reliable than ever, and the benefits of efficient control of motors can’t be beat. Still, there ...

Sustainability is one of the greatest priorities across all industries, and many organizations have set ambitious net-zero goals to minimize their environmental impact. This has led sustainability ...

Variable speed drives are transforming modern irrigation by shifting control from valves to pump speed. Instead of running motors at full capacity and throttling flow, the drives adjust motor speed to ...

The full-featured A1000 variable-speed drive is compatible with interior and surface permanent-magnet motors for highly efficient, precision control, producing up to 200% torque with or without ...

It is interesting to look at figures from the Energy Information Administration about where energy gets consumed in our economy. These figures reveal that industrial uses account for 31% of all energy ...

Motors are driving demand for electricity, accounting for about half of the electricity we consume, according to the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). Many of these motors are found throughout ...
