tecodrive GmbH from Garbsen has named its invention "fleXfeed" – and is breaking revolutionary new ground in material feed applications used for metal processing. Thanks to an ingenious magnetic field, "fleXfeed" works on a completely contact-free basis and is much faster than conventional feed rollers. The young company is basing its new solution on the principle of linear direct drive technology. As a partner for the delivery of drive control solutions, Kollmorgen was closely involved at the development stage. The S700 servo drive play a key role in the contact-free feed process.
KOLLMORGEN expands its fields of application for the distributed servo technology with a significant increase in performance. The three-phase AKD-N series now delivers currents up to 12 A – equivalent to a doubling of output to 4.8 kW. The AKD-C central rectifier units are also bringing more power. With 20 kW the compact devices are now also providing double the previous maximum continuous output of 10kW. The short-term peak output for both devices is at just short of three times the nominal current.
Integrated solutions are now the benchmark for drive and control technology in machine and plant engineering. As a result, product documentation and sales literature are increasingly focused on solution packages. The latest catalog goes far beyond a simple guide for selecting individual products. The latest edition "KOLLMORGEN - Motion Control and Drive Solutions" complete catalog, covering over 100 product and solution ideas, is available to download from the website.
