1.1.2 Always the right drive
The SEW-EURODRIVE modular concept offers millions of combinations. This wide selection enables you to choose the correct drive for all applications, each based on the required speed and torque range, space available, and the ambient conditions. Gear units and gearmotors offering a unique and finely tuned performance range and the best economic prerequisites to face your drive challenges.
The modular DR motor system comprises the energy-efficiency motor variants IE1 to IE4 and was designed and produced with all the worldwide requirements for energy efficiency classes in mind. In all relevant countries, the DR motor was approved and certified without any problems. In combination with gear units from SEW-EURODRIVE, the energy-efficient drives achieve highest levels of efficiency.
The gearmotors are electronically empowered by MOVITRAC® frequency inverters, MOVIDRIVE® drive inverters and MOVIAXIS® multi-axis servo inverters, a combination that blends perfectly with the existing SEW-EURODRIVE program. As is the case for mechanical systems, development, production and assembly is carried out completely by SEW-EURODRIVE. In combination with our drive electronics, these drives provide the utmost in flexibility.
Products of the servo drive system, such as low backlash servo gear units, compact servomotors or MOVIAXIS® multi-axis servo drives provide precision and dynamics. From single-axis or multi-axis applications all the way to synchronized process sequences, servo drive systems by SEW-EURODRIVE offer a flexible and customized implementation of your application.
For economical, decentralized installations, SEW-EURODRIVE offers components from its decentralized drive system, such as MOVIMOT®, the gearmotor with integrated frequency inverter or MOVI-SWITCH®, the gearmotor with integrated switching and protection function. SEW-EURODRIVE hybrid cables have been designed specifically to ensure cost-effective solutions, independent of the philosophy behind the system or the size of the system. The latest developments from SEW-EURODRIVE: DRC electronic motor, MOVIGEAR® mechatronic drive system, MOVIFIT® decentralized drive control, MOVIPRO® decentralized drive, positioning and application controller, and MOVITRANS® system components for contactless energy transfer.
Power, quality and sturdy design combined in one standard product: With SEW-EURODRIVE, high torque industrial gear units achieve large movements. The modular concept will once again provide optimum adaptation of industrial gear units to meet a wide range of different applications.
