From systems to solutions

With its modular product range, Nord Drivesystems offers countless combination options for motors, gearheads, and drive electronics. Combining its application expertise, the company develops drive solutions perfectly tailored to the needs of over 100 industries.

Whether transporting goods, kneading dough, or lifting heavy loads: every movement requires a drive. But different applications have different requirements. As a developer of drive solutions, Nord offers all drive technology components with its modular product range, which can be combined in various configurations. Nord handles the appropriate selection, design, and calculation of the drives. Drive systems consisting of gearheads, motors, and drive electronics thus become tailor-made solutions for specific industry applications. This enables the company to meet a wide range of specific requirements.

A modular system with numerous solutions

One example of this is the requirement for energy efficiency. Nord offers electric motors that can be used worldwide and meet all relevant international regulations. With its IE5+ synchronous motors, the developer exceeds the efficiency levels of the currently highest defined energy efficiency class (IE5). They are also part of the integrated DuoDrive gear/motor concept, which combines the IE5+ motor with a single-stage spur gear unit in a single housing. DuoDrive achieves one of the highest efficiencies on the market in this performance class. Users also benefit from Nord's expertise and additional services, such as the ECO efficiency analysis, which enables the energy-optimized implementation of upcoming drive tasks.

Another current example is the condition monitoring that Nord can integrate into its drive solutions. With an IIoT solution, drive and condition data can be collected and analyzed via the frequency inverter's integrated PLC and made available to the user's central systems. This provides important information for predictive maintenance. This enables machines and systems to be proactively maintained, downtime reduced, and overall system efficiency increased.

Solutions to optimize user performance

"Requirements are changing – and we are actively supporting this change," reports Jörg Niermann, Head of Marketing at Nord. "We are continuously developing our drive components to offer our customers solutions that advance them technically, economically, and ecologically." By combining a broad modular product portfolio with technical know-how and knowledge in over 100 industries, Nord creates customized drive systems that are delivered as complete solutions from a single source.
