NORD Drivesystems launches its myNORD customer portal: this new section of the drive manufacturer’s website, http://my.nord.com, offers on-line tools for registered customers that provide detailed information about order status, product selection, local contacts, and latest news.

NORD is currently developing IE3 motors. They will ensure an efficiency increase of at least 10% compared with the IE2 class, primarily by the use of different materials.

Six sizes of the NORD SK 500E series control cabinet inverters are available, with outputs from 0.25 kW to 22kW. Once the output range has been set, whether the basic model or a fully-equipped package of functions, the external dimensions of the unit are identical. Especially for conversions or extensions of functions, the uniform space requirements regardless of the options selected makes life easy for users.

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS offers individual "Smart Solutions" for drive applications across all areas of industry. These solution packages combine customised drive concepts complete with components from NORD production and development, and systematically link them with fast-reaction complete support – including order tracking, training offers and on-site service. The ready-made systems can be supplied fully functional and ready to run on delivery.

For the very first time, the new conveyor belt systems of the INOTEC AP GmbH in Hesse achieve the wide range of functions of servo drive technology using decentralised inverters. Integrated drives from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS enable complex functions such as cycling, positioning and start-stop operation to be realised with cost-effective units.

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS is bringing to the market IE2 high-efficiency motors compliant with the IEC 60034-30 standard. For practically all its IE2 motors NORD has kept the same capacity and introduced new technological solutions to improve their efficiency.

The SK 200E family of economical decentralised frequency inverters has been expanded with two new models, SK 225E and SK 235E, featuring onboard AS Interface support. In addition to creating a drive system that is especially attractive in economic terms, this interface makes life easier at the I/O level for users of large-scale installation by simplifying cabling.
