Energy efficiency thanks to hybrid drive solutions

Processes can only run safely and efficiently if the solution is customised to the problem. This requires good knowledge of the parameters on the one hand and highly efficient products on the other. The drive specialist demonstrates with its comprehensive motor portfolio and the central inverter technology with the latest generation of controllers, such as intermediate energy storage and energy recovery highly efficient systems. For example, the KES compact infeed transfers regenerative energy back into the grid using sinusoidal commutation.

A further building block towards more energy efficiency are hybrid drive concepts. Modularised mechanical engineering uses decentralised drives that work directly on site. However, power-intensive processes usually require the Construction of a centralised automation solution with control cabinet. If users combine both solution approaches, they can utilise the respective advantages. This is particularly easy if the components are at home in both worlds.

AMKmotion supports its customers with the KHY hybrid distributor, for example. It simplifies the Combination of various signals and supply voltages from the central drive level. The distributor thus serves as an intelligent interface to the decentralised drive world. The standardised interface is designed as a baying module and thus simply extends central control cabinet devices. The KHY also monitors the DC link current and the decentralised drive train via an I²t counter. The switch-off behaviour can be configured individually.
