Frequency inverter for conveyor belts

Efficient motor operation depending on loads

Using frequency inverters to drive the motors for conveyor belts brings a broad range of benefits. Theyenable to keep a constant speed, ensuring a smooth flow of materials. With built-in overload protection, they help to extend the lifespan of the system’s components. Also, they are easy to install, which saves both time and money.

All these advantages make frequency inverters a smart choice for conveyor belts, as they maximise operational efficiency and minimise maintenance costs.

Your solution for efficient conveyor belts

Gain constant speed of your conveyor belts

Frequency inverters provide accurate control over motor speed, enabling the conveyor speed to be precisely adjusted to meet the demands of the process.

A constant speed of the conveyor belts is also crucial for smooth and continuous production. The risk of jams or uneven material flows is minimized.

  • Minimizing jams and uneven material flows
  • Adaptation of the motor speed to loads on conveyor belts
  • Energy saving at partial load

Overload protection

Another important advantage of frequency inverters in conveyor belts is their overload capacity. Conveyor belts are often subjected to high loads, especially during sudden load changes or when handling heavy metals.Frequency inverters provide protection against overload by monitoring and adjusting the speed and torque of the motor. This prevents damage to the mechanical components and reduces wear. This increases the life time of the conveyor belt system and reduces maintenance costs.

  • Protection against overload
  • Reduction of damage to mechanical components
  • Reduction in maintenance costs

Easy installation of frequency inverters for conveyor belts

Frequency inverters are characterized by their simple installation, which considerably simplifies the installation and commissioning of conveyor belts.Our frequency inverters are designed to be compact and user-friendly so that they can be easily integrated into existing systems. This simple installation saves time and costs during installation and enables the conveyor system to be commissioned quickly. 

  • No high installation costs

The perfect frequency inverter for your conveyor belts in metal recycling

The low-voltage frequency inverters from the FR-A800 series are particularly suitable for the optimum operation of motors for conveyor belts.

Our FR-A800 series frequency inverters offer high drive precision and fast speed control

Power range and technology

The frequency inverters in the A800 series cover a power range from 0.4 to 500 kW. With the help of advanced technologies such as ‘Real Sensorless Vector Control’ and ‘Online Auto-Tuning’, optimum torque and speed control of the drive is always achieved. These technologies ensure precise and efficient control that meets the requirements of a wide range of applications.

Robust and reliable components

The A800 series is equipped with robust and reliable long-life components, such as high-quality capacitors. These make the devices ideal for demanding industrial applications where durability and reliability are crucial.

Operating temperature and vibration resistance

FR-A800 series frequency inverters can be operated in a wide temperature range from -‍10 to +50 degrees Celsius. They are also characterised by a high vibration resistance of maximum 5.9 m/s², which enables them to be used in harsh environments.

Predictive maintenance

An outstanding feature of the A800 series is the predictive maintenance function. This prevents unplanned machine downtime by continuously monitoring the condition of the devices and signalling maintenance requirements at an early stage. This maximises uptime and increases the reliability of the entire system.
