In recent years, software evolution has completely revolutionized the way we work with drives, right from the design stage, through to commissioning and operation. Now we've released MyDrive Suite, a software hub where all Danfoss Drives software tools are centrally located.
Using more efficient motors and drives is the foundation of an efficient system. Variable speed operation also leads to significant energy savings (in the range of 15-40%). But how about the settings of the drive? Do they have an impact on the power consumption of the electric motor?
Across the entire Danfoss drives product range, we offer drives of varying supply voltages, power ranges, and IP classes, ensuring you get a solution fit for your crane needs.
Cranes are typically used in manufacturing or maintenance processes where productivity and safety are considered the most important requirements. Preventing the load from swinging has been a primary concern for Danfoss engineers for years! And now, our experts have engineered the solution: The future of cranes is steady, reliable and innovative.
This post, which assumes the drive is sized for appropriate control of the motor and application (voltage, power, response time and I/O needs), contains more best practices for trouble-free operation of your drive and application in the location in which it is installed.
Here is a guide to troubleshoot your AC drive and the relevant application. This includes looking at fault codes, extracting data with your PC, and considering repairs and logistics.
The functions allow you to use the drive as a smart sensor to monitor the condition of your motor and application, to detect early issues, and to find solutions before they have an impact on the process.
To reduce complexity and the need for additional modules or hardware, Danfoss Drives developed the Integrated Motion Controllers in the VLT® AutomationDrive FC 302. IMC offers high-precision position control as well as multiple features for positioning and synchronizing with a standard AC drive.
It may have been around for a while. But that doesn’t mean it hasn’t evolved. Far from it. The VLT® AutomationDrive FC 300 Series is now tougher and more intelligent than it has ever been before.
