An application-oriented concept The logistics industry is constantly developing, and these days requires systems that are more productive, scalable and energy-saving. The flexible concept of the FFB brake motor was developed to take account of higher expectations in terms of longevity, availability, safety, robustness and communications. Its flexibility to adapt to requirements (wide modular range, ease of setup without adjustment in complete safety, motion control, information feedback) provides it with the necessary attributes to satisfy an extensive range of automation and logistics applications...

FFB brake motor Regulations and international compatibility A response to changing regulations The latest energy regulations set a minimum efficiency level for motors; new standards or directives are being drawn up around the world. It is therefore increasingly difficult to select and find a drive mechanism on the market that complies with all these regulations. Another issue is the complexity of different voltages and frequencies throughout the world, associated with the same efficiency classes. A truly international concept The new concept of FFB brake motors rolled out using the IMfinity®...

FFB brake motor The future of energy and the benefits of variable speed A truly strategic vision Integration of variable speed solutions at the heart of systems is part of a truly strategic vision from industrial companies. On top of the flexibility, productivity and scalability a variable speed drive has to offer, it also contributes to significantly reduced energy consumption. A global system approach is increasingly considered to be the architecture that generates the greatest energy savings. A new concept The new FFB brake motor concept is in line with this trend through its capacity to offer...
