Handling typical drive tasks with great efficiency

Lenze exhibit highlights smooth interaction of centralized and decentralized drive technology.


Lenze: Intralogistic drive system

..

With its material flow exhibit at MATERIAL HANDLIN21XX, Lenze is set to demonstrate how centralized and decentralized drive solutions can be seamlessly and efficiently interlinked in typical intralogistics processes. The practical, real-life application scenario provided by the specialist in drive and automation technology depicts various options – centralized or decentralized – for horizontal and vertical materials handling technology.

The exhibit shows Lenze's range of solutions for intralogistics, with various, precisely matched motor and gearbox combinations offering an insight into the company's comprehensive portfolio of products. High energy efficiency of the application is achieved by the precise design and the use of high efficiency components.

Lenze's uniformly scaled, wide range of inverters can be seen in action here – from simple switch-off positioning, all the way up to highly dynamic and exact point-to-point positioning using a position table stored in the inverter. All inverters employ soft start and soft stop for gentle material transport. The Inverter Drives 8400 thereby offer the right solution space for any task – both for control cabinets and decentralized designs. For example, the decentralized inverter 8400 protec is a robust unit with high degree of protection that also comes with positioning control, including encoder evaluation. And if the requirements in terms of dynamics and precision are even greater, the servo inverters in Lenze's 9400 Servo Drives range can be seamlessly, easily and conveniently integrated in the machine network.

The "VFC eco" mode of the Inverter Drives 8400 represents a particular highlight in terms of energy efficiency, adjusting the magnetizing current of a motor intelligently to actual requirements. This is important, since three-phase AC motors often supply a higher magnetizing current than the operating conditions actually require – particularly in partial load operation, such as in horizontal materials handling systems. Compared with conventional solutions, the "VFC eco" mode allows energy savings of up to 30% to be achieved, particularly in the partial load range.

The showcase is automated with Lenze's I/O System 1000 and a command station with visualization using VisiWin- NET® software. With this setup, Lenze also underlines its expertise in lean, powerful automation systems.
