High speed motor for turbo
applications sets the new standard
Yaskawa Environmental Energy / The Switch
has delivered thousands of high-speed
motors in serial production to several world
leading manufacturers for their specialised
turbo pump and compressors applications.
Based on more than two decades of experience, the same technology is
now introducing motors paired with drives, offering unrivaled cost and size
advantages in powers of 300kW to 1.5MW and speeds of 6,000 to
15,000 rpm. The robust solid rotor motor eliminates the need for a
gearbox, while allowing the application to reach higher speeds and
availability. Mechanical problems associated with gearboxes are no longer
an issue while fewer components also reduces maintenance.

No more worrying about chips
and dirt with closed cable carrier

The UNIFLEX Advanced series offers
reliable solid plastic cable carriers with
fixed cable carrier widths. These all-
rounders in the Kabelschlepp Metool
range are quiet and lightweight, yet
robust. That also applies to the
UAT1555: This cable carrier was
developed for rough ambient conditions with chips, dirt and dust and
effectively prevents foreign bodies from entering into the cable space. The
special cover ensures excellent protection for the installed cables and
hoses. In addition, the cable carrier is highly sturdy thanks to the
optimised geometry of the chain links.

SSRs feature Profinet interface
for real-time monitoring

Carlo Gavazzi continues to develop products
that meet the needs of Industry 4.0 with
the launch of NRGC-PN interfaces with the
main controller to provide reliable
transmission of machine data, process
parameters and diagnostic data to the
controller via Profinet communication
interface. The NRG platform is focused on
optimising manufacturing operations quickly and efficiently providing the
user with more cost-effective processes, real-time data monitoring,
prevention of machine breakdown and accurate troubleshooting.
