Mining Custom Power Solutions

FEATURES and BENEFITS:

A custom drive can provide a number of benefits to your application.

Improved Performance

Adjustable operating speeds, torque limits and controlled stopping allow smooth operation and torque control from stall to 400Hz.

Increased Energy Efficiency

In a single year, a motor often consumes energy worth about 10 times its initial cost. A custom drive can improve the power factor, reduce in-rush currents and maximize peak demand charges to minimize energy consumption.

Greater Reliability and Reduced Maintenance Costs

The cost savings do not stop with just increased efficiency. Tremendous mechanical shock for both the motor and connected load is eliminated via the ability to control starting torque. This significantly reduces the wear and tear on the connected load, as well as the motor, reducing mechanical breakage and down time, thus extending the life of motors and mechanical components.
