Conveyors

Keep your conveyors moving under any load

No matter if you use them for general or bulk material handling, you need conveyors to provide the precision, reliability and performance to keep your business moving forward.

Using our medium and low voltage drives to control your conveyor motors helps you get longer life out of the conveyor system. Our variable speed drives control and prevent the belts slipping and stretching, and that helps keep the belts lasting longer. Our drives also offer regenerative braking options for downhill conveyors that can put braking energy back into your electrical network. Our products are all backed by a global service and support network.

No slipping. No stretching. Long life belts. Everything counts when you are looking to improve the performance of your conveyors.

Highlights

Soft starting and stopping

Smooth reversing

Reduced power consumption

Prolonged conveyor belt lifetime

Synchronizing of multiple motors

Regenerative braking

Low harmonic drives

Dynamic torque and accurate speed regulation

Feeders

Optimal material flow is essential for process excellence

Feeders with accurate and controlled dosage of raw materials and additives are crucial to your quality of the cement. Our drives provide precision control for your feeder to help prevent stretching, slipping and breaking of feeder belts.

By controlling the precise speed and/or torque of your feeder motors with our low voltage AC drives helps ensure you continuously have the exact material dosage. Our AC drives enable precise monitoring of the material dosage information, critical to quality cement production, while protecting the feeder belts and other mechanical equipment from harsh wear and tear.

For demanding environments high protection class variants are available.

Accuracy. Control. Efficiency. Everything counts for you to create quality cement.

Highlights

Accurate speed and torque regulation

Detailed information on the dosing process elimination of mechanical dosing systems

Desired cement quality, consistent process quality

Optimized consumption of fuel, raw materials and additives

Easy connection to any automation system through multiple fieldbus adapters

Sensorless

vector control for induction and permanent magnet motors

This article was published on the original KEWO site in 2015 as general guidance on drive selection for this load type. The technical points apply to any low or medium voltage AC drive, including the KEWO AD and SD3000 series.
