Lightweights for standard applications
General purpose motors with an aluminum enclosure are suitable for a wide range of standard drive tasks in the industrial environment. The design and architecture of the motors ensure maximum flexibility and minimum installation costs. Users benefit from integral lifting eyes, screw-on feet, reinforced bearing end shields with optimum mechanical properties and easily accessible terminal boxes. Encoders, brakes and separately driven fans can also be easily added. Thanks to their especially low weight, they are predestined for applications in pumps, fans and compressors. But they can also be reliably deployed in conveyor systems and lifting gear.
SIMOTICS GP standard motors
In addition to converter-capable line motors, two converter-optimized motor lines are available for variable-speed converter operation. For converter optimized motors you can quickly put your SIMOTICS GP motors into operation by means of a motor code for predefined converter parameters.
Converter-optimized synchronous reluctance motor (VSD4000)
For particularly energy-efficient operation, the best choice is a system comprising a SIMOTICS reluctance motor and a SINAMICS converter. The reluctance technology ensures particularly high dynamic performance and high efficiencies even in the partial load range, as well as high process quality.
