Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) provide many industrial benefits for motor control.
Precise control of motor speed and torque helps to improve operational performance and drives efficiencies in energy use, resulting in lower costs. VFDs can be adjusted to match motor speed with application requirements, thus reducing the overall system's stress and strain. This helps to increase uptime and also reduce maintenance costs. Additionally, VFDs also reduce the number of mechanical components needed, such as gears and belts.
With motors consuming up to 75% of all energy used within industry, real savings can be made by utilising effective motor control. In this interview, experts from Eaton help us understand how their DM1 range provides users with intuitive out-of-the-box solutions.
