IE5+ Synchronous Motors from NORD - Efficient. Hygienic. Compact.

March 21, 2022

DCS NORD IE5 Synchronous Motors 1 400 The new generation of NORD^® IE5+ synchronous motors is manufactured in-house for use in intralogistics as well as in the food and beverage industry. Our motors feature a compact and hygienic design in a very small space and thus ensure high corrosion resistance and easy cleaning. The permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is optionally available as an nsd tupH™ or IP69K version.

The motor-integrated encoder is standard and an integrated mechanical brake is optional. By using the motor, the number of versions and operating costs are reduced. It is compatible with all gear units and variable frequency drives from the NORD^® modular products.

The new IE5+ motor generation is designed for minimizing variants and reducing operating costs

•Highest operational efficiency with IE5+ technology Reduced TCO and fast ROI
•Variant reduction through constant torque over a wide speed range
•Non-ventilated variant (N-Design) for hygienic wash-down areas such as food & beverage applications and other harsh environments
•Ventilated variant (F-Design*) with a high overload capacity for logistics, packaging, post & parcel, manufacturing, and more
•Fully matched NORD modular system solution with gear unit, motor and variable frequency drive

DCS NORD IE5 Synchronous Motors 2 400

Variant reduction

By reducing the number of variants, it is possible to minimize administrative expenses and set up leaner manufacturing, logistics, storage, and service processes. The new generation of IE5 motors combines the benefits of NORD’s modular system with the possibility of reducing system variants.

This solution is tailored to each customer and features the following advantages:

•Motor can be operated worldwide
•High system overload capacity
•Large speed range
•Explicitly tailored to the individual load range
•Minimal space requirements paired with high power density

Put to the Ultimate Test – Part 1: Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL

DCS Put to the Ultimate Test Part 1 Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL 1 400x275

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.
