Nord Drivesystems Offers Drive Solutions at IPPE 2024
Nord Drivesystems is once again attending the International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE) to showcase their solutions for the poultry and meat processing industry. Nord’s modular product system includes compact gear units, high-efficiency electric motors, and precise, intelligent electronic controls with a variety of surface protection options. This year’s expo is taking place January 30 – February 1, 2024, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA.
Visit Nord at Booth BC-40087 to see these specialized solutions:
Smooth Surface Gear Units and Motors
Smooth surface gear units are made from a high-strength, aluminum alloy housing that provides an easy-to-clean surface with an optimized design that reduces the number of trapped particles. Available gear units include a range of Nordbloc.1 helical inline gear units, Nordbloc.1 helical bevel 93.1 series, and Universal SMI worm gear units. Additional protection options such as potted terminal boxes, Quadrilip seals, condensation drain holes, and moisture resistant varnished dipped windings are also available to keep moisture and unwanted debris from entering the gear unit. Smooth surface IE3 motors with a variety of protective coatings and finishes are also available in a HM series.
Overhead Conveyor Drives
Overhead conveyor drives feature heavy-duty construction and high-quality machined components to provide long lasting performance. The drives have two main features: a standard VL3 spread bearing design with a dry cavity that enables the drive to handle high overhung loads and an optimized oil leakage protection system with Quadrilip seals. With their output mounting flange and shaft, they allow for easy drop-in replacement for industry standard footprints. Thanks to their energy efficiency and minimal maintenance requirements, overhead conveyors have a low total cost of ownership, long service life, and deliver reliable operation.
