The new compact extra-low voltage drives are absolutely at home in the materials handling technology used in warehousing systems. They offer your applications high running smoothness, overload capacity and flexibility. They have a diverse range of potential uses, and they fit like a glove into even small installation spaces.
For changing requirements in logistics
Demands in consumer and industrial logistics are changing. Orders are having to be fulfilled ever faster and container sizes are getting smaller. At the same time, factory logistics, and therefore also warehouse technology, are becoming more flexible, while conveyor modules are getting smaller and materials handling technology is increasingly mobile. Shuttle vehicles are taking over from rigid systems in certain areas – logistics and warehouse technology are changing. These changes are increasing the level of automation and decreasing the installation space for gearmotors. How much drive technology weighs plays a vital role, particularly when it comes to mobile systems. The associated drive systems must therefore also become more decentralized, more compact, more lightweight and more networked in order to efficiently meet these requirements.
We offer decentralized compact extra-low voltage drives precisely in order to meet these needs. The gearmotors consist of a compact motor with a 48 VDC voltage supply. These are compatible with compact planetary, right-angle, and right-angle planetary gear units. Together, they make up a drive solution with a compact construction for decentralized systems.
The compact motors are electronically commutated internal rotor motors with a high power density and dynamics. The motors feature fully integrated control electronics with an analog and digital interface. The parameters of these interfaces can be configured via an RS485 engineering interface. This enables users to make flexible use of the motors and adapt them to suit a variety of applications.
Engineering software DCAShell (DE / EN)
The engineering software DCAShell for compact extra-low voltage drives is necessary to set parameters and operating data and is also needed for the diagnosis of operating states.
Typical applications
The new compact extra-low voltage drives are absolutely at home in warehouse technology and storage systems. Applications in stationary materials handling technology include roller and accumulating roller conveyors, belt and chain conveyors, lifting modules and corner transfer units, turning devices and rotary tables, trolleys, pallet transfer shuttles, vertical conveyors and hoists, stacking devices, container storage systems and sequencers, pushers, and additional stationary materials handling technology.
However, there are also applications for the new compact extra-low voltage drives in mobile materials handling technology, for example as simple shuttle travel drives and load handling devices, on operating devices (SRS, automatic small parts warehouse), in sorters with a belt or tray, pallet transfer shuttles or automated guided vehicle systems.
