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 ...

The most reliable means for changing shaft speed remains a mechanical variable-speed transmission. These drives are used to provide a variable output speed from a constant-speed power source (as in a ...

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 ...
