Nord extends LogiDrive range of standardised geared motors

Nord Drivesystems has expanded its successful LogiDrive concept with new markets and products to give additional applications access to the benefits of standardised, industry-optimised geared motor versions.

A wide portfolio of perfectly matched drive solutions, LogiDrive is an energy-efficient, service-friendly and standardised modular system. Depending on the industry and objective, different Nord products are combined into one drive solution, which is 100% tailored to the respective industry standards and application requirements.

The new extended LogiDrive solution space is intended for conveyor applications in the fields of post and parcel, airport and warehouse, and comprises one advanced version with IE5+ synchronous motor technology and a basic version with IE3 asynchronous motors. While the LogiDrive advanced drives address issues such as energy efficiency, version reduction and total cost of ownership, the basic LogiDrive’s main focus is on cost efficiency.

Nord says all LogiDrive systems are efficient and extremely easy to maintain and install thanks to plug-and-play technology. The entire system has a modular design, so that all components of the drive technology can be individually serviced. This minimises maintenance and repair costs. All connections are made using simple plug connections while integrated maintenance switches and manual control switches ensure a high level of user-friendliness. Nord also supplies the cables. Potential sources of error are thus eliminated, and commissioning is facilitated.

The compact design saves space and is light in weight thanks to the aluminium housing. Thanks to the design of the motors used and the operation on the frequency inverter, the same motor variant can be universally used worldwide.
