Constant torque application benefits from SynRM technology Up to 15 percent lower energy use, a significant reduction in motor maintenance costs and a drop in audible noise are achieved with the installation of an ABB synchronous reluctance motor and drive (SynRM) package on a twin extruder application. Radius Systems’ plant in Derbyshire, UK, houses 14 … Continue reading →
Gearbox failure on cooling tower fan applications is eliminated with an ABB motor-drive package designed specifically for such hot and humid operating environments. A traditional cooling tower drive system consists of an AC motor, a gearbox, pillow block bearings and shaft couplings to achieve the air flow required. Any one of these mechanical components runs … Continue reading →
Balancing energy efficiency improvements with process control requirements is eliminated with ABB’s synchronous reluctance (SynRM) motor and variable-speed drive (VSD) packages. An innovative synchronous reluctance motor that combines all of the energy saving benefits of permanent magnet technology together with the service-friendliness of an induction motor platform paired with an ABB industrial drive and advanced … Continue reading →
A company producing extruded PVC-U profiles for double glazing product applications is using ABB’s synchronous reluctance (SynRM) motor to cut the number of motor failures on two of its main extruders. The SynRM replaced ageing servo motors, ensuring high reliability and maximum production time for the company from its extruders. Synseal Extrusions Ltd, based in … Continue reading →

The day will include: Demo of the new ACS880 Inverter! Introducing the Synchronous Reluctance Motor ( SynRM Motor). A Sneak peak at the ACS580 Inverter … Continue reading →
Over the life of an electric motor, the power cost in just one year can be ten times the capital cost. Over the life of a motor, the power cost is by far the most significant for a motor that runs most of the year. Therefore the most important factor when choosing a new motor is its … Continue reading →
