Today’s state-of-the-art waste compactors can not only sort and weigh waste, but also calculate it automatically via a terminal – with a cloud connection and smart user guidance. However, the hydraulic pressing process itself is still driven by a classic three-phase motor that feeds the hydraulic unit. Unregulated, solid, durable.
Plastic extruders rely on highly developed sensor technology, temperature switching and digital control. But at the point where the decisive torque for the screw is transmitted, a robust gearbox with a high reduction ratio is required. Mechanically resilient, well mounted, easy to maintain – the supposedly “stupid” part of the machine is also its backbone.
In biomass heating systems that are integrated into the building technology with modern control systems in order to communicate smoothly with heat pumps and photovoltaic systems, a simple shaded-pole motor behind the control panel regulates elementary processes such as the opening and closing of exhaust air flaps in an unspectacular and unobtrusive manner. Nothing works without it, even if it goes unmentioned in the marketing brochures.
These examples make it clear: in industrial automation, energy automation and other high-tech sectors, the importance of simple, mechanically robust drives remains unbroken. They are often the silent guarantor of availability and operational reliability, especially where a long service life and low maintenance costs are crucial.
Complete range with product understanding
MOLL-MOTOR knows the needs of buyers. We talk to them about the digital future as well as the analog basis and together we find the compatible drive solution with the best price-performance ratio in our wide range, from frequency inverters, sensors and controls to the “simple” three-phase motor, gearbox and transmission element. Available from stock at short notice or agreed in advance just-in-time.
Because progress does not always mean replacing the old. Progress often also means recognizing what has worked for decades – and integrating it seamlessly into new, digital overall solutions.
Whether highly developed automation or mechanical endurance runners: we will be happy to advise you on choosing the right drive. So that your system is not only innovative, but also durable, low-maintenance and economical.
