Speed optimization features also improve productivity, as do remote operator interfaces that link and coordinate multiple drives. What can designers do to ensure higher productivity from the ...

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 ...

Variable speed drives (VSDs), sometimes also known as variable frequency drives, are electronic devices used to regulate the speed of an ac induction motor. Electric motors consume approximately 25% ...

As a hybrid technology that combines mechanical and electrical systems, electrohydraulic variable speed drives allow for motor speed adjustments to conserve energy and provide precise control over ...

In an industry evolving alongside consumer concerns over rising energy costs, impact on the environment, and, of course, stricter regulations handed down by the government, new technologies are ...
