Interroll announces expansion of drum motor platform and conveying solutions
Interroll will present its range of state-of-the-art conveyor components and integrated drive solutions at the PPMA Show 2018
I
nterroll will highlight the expansion of the new modular designed drum motor platform from 80mm diameter drums, to include the new DM0113 & DM0138, all available with an Asynchronous or Synchronous motor winding.
Predominately used in belt conveyor applications, each motor is tested and designed in modular fashion to support shortest delivery times. Stronger
shafts and ball bearings ensure
extra-long lifespan and the extremely stable design with a planetary gearbox allows
higher torque to be transferred with low levels of operating noise. All the hygienic
drum motors comply with IP69K.
Energy efficient 24V drive technology Interroll will display the 24V EC310 RollerDrive that makes it possible to build-up an intelligently controlled conveyor system divided into zones. The drives of each individual conveyor section are only powered when material is actually conveyed. At throughput rates of 600 to 1,800 units per hour, this achieves energy savings of up to 50 per cent by comparison with continuously running motors
