Thanks to their power range of up to 22 kW and their wide range of functions, decentralized drives from NORD are at home in many applications worldwide - from the food industry to intralogistics to bulk materials handling.
NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has been developing and producing electronic drive technology for over 30 years, making it one of the pioneers of innovative inverter technology. The portfolio includes motor starters and frequency inverters in decentralized design up to 22 kW as well as for the control cabinet up to 160 kW and is characterized above all by scalable functions, a high control quality as well as simple installation and operation. Various power classes, mounting options and communication modules guarantee integration into all control architectures.
The NORD inverters are scalable in function as well as equipment and can thus be flexibly adapted to any application. They can be installed quickly, are uncomplicated to operate, and are compatible with all commercially available bus systems and control systems. The precise current vector control can bring out the optimum torque in a wide variety of load and speed situations.

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
