From 6 to 8 November 2019, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will once again exhibit at FMB in Bad Salzuflen. As 'The Supplier Show for Mechanical Engineering' FMB addresses the entire spectrum of machinery and plant engineering, where drive technology plays a central role. Product highlights presented by NORD include a new synchronous motor that achieves a significant improvement in energy efficiency, a new generation of control cabinet inverters and a PROFIsafe module for the functional safety of plant and machinery.

Functional safety of plant and machinery is of vital importance in production. The NORD SK TU4-PNS option module from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS assists the simple implementation of safe responses. In combination with a safety PLC, the drive electronics reliably communicate over the existing PROFINET via PROFIsafe.

The future of production is modular, flexible and autonomous. This requires new systems with decentralised intelligence, which can cope with the increasing complexity of the processes. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS supplies a wide selection of decentralised drive technology with frequency inverters which can be adapted to any required application and can be flexibly integrated into the plant.

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS offers powerful drive systems for transporting bulk materials that are characterised by maximum reliability, safety and robustness and ensure smooth operation even under the toughest environmental conditions.

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS goes mobile: With the NORDCON APP and the corresponding "NORDAC ACCESS BT" Bluetooth stick the drive specialist has created a mobile commissioning and service solution for all NORD drives.

Intelligent drive technology is the prerequisite for digitalisation and automation of production, because it enables networked or autonomous production processes in "smart factories" and keeps them running. As a leading supplier in the sector, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS provides pioneering drive solutions (hardware and software) and supports customers with its communication and application know-how for networking and connection of their Industry 4.0 environments.

With the NORDAC PRO SK 500P NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has launched a state-of-the-art control cabinet inverter with the latest component technology and ultimate levels of functionality, connectivity and modularity. The inverters have an impressive number of interfaces for communication and field buses, innovative features as well as a number of extension possibilities, so that they can be easily integrated into all automation architectures.

The well-known MAXXDRIVE industrial gear units from NORD provide high output torques from 15 to 240 kNm and are ideal for use in heavy duty applications such as agitators, belt drives, mixers, mills, drums or crushers. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS now presents a new industrial gear unit series (MAXXDRIVE^® XT), which optimises the proven modular system for applications with high thermal limit powers.

From 12 to 15 June 2019, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will be presenting its hygienic drive units at ProPak Asia in Bangkok, Asia's international specialist exhibition for processing and packaging technology. The lightweight, corrosion-resistant gear units, smooth motors, frequency inverters and motor starters in washdown-optimised design provide an economical alternative to stainless steel geared motors due to their nsd tupH surface treatment.
