System efficient drives

摘要

Energy saving does not end with high-energy efficiency class motors - in fact, this is just the start. Only a small proportion of losses occur in the motor, with the rest being generated in the other components of the complete drive chain. The total efficiency of a system can thus only be defined across the entire work envelope. To really save energy, it is not just the motor that needs to be as efficient as possible, but also the other components. This is a feature of the mechatronic drive system Movigear and the DRC.. electronic motor, which has a similar design to Movigear, but can be combined with a variable gear unit.
