Key driver for parcel hubs

To cope with the rapidly growing parcel volume, parcel hubs need highly efficient drive technology that ensures high operational safety with minimum downtime, low TCO and minimal maintenance effort. Nord is an important partner for the post and parcel industry.

Its portfolio includes the patented DuoDrive geared motor, energy-saving IE4 and IE5+ synchronous motors, modern drive electronics for decentralised use and control cabinet installation, as well as efficient gear units. With its IE5+ motor generation – available in ventilated and smooth surface version – NORD has succeeded in significantly reducing losses compared to the current IE4 series. The permanent-magnet synchronous motor achieves its high efficiency that at times is significantly above efficiency class IE5, over a wide torque range – and is therefore optimally suitable for economical operation in the partial load range. The patented DuoDrive integrates the IE5+ synchronous motor into a single-stage helical gear unit housing and thus sets new standards with regard to efficiency, installation space and version reduction.

The LogiDrive systems’ standardised geared motor versions mean a balancing between energy-efficient operation and a minimum of drive versions. The decentralised drive units are highly efficient, and thanks to Plug & Play technology, they are extremely service-friendly and result in a considerable reduction of spare part stocks. The entire system has a modular design, so that all components of the drive technology can be individually serviced. This minimises maintenance and repair costs.

Whether an existing system or a greenfield project: NORD supports its customers in the post and parcel field with analysis and consulting.
