Automotive manufacturers worldwide are replacing traditional switchgear, electronic controls and analog wiring – kilometers of it – with decentralized drive systems using standard fieldbus communications. The reason is savings.
In fact, a recent third-party audit has shown that materials and installation costs for cabling, sensors and actuators can be reduced by as much as 76%. Setup is simplified. And the versatile, modular design of decentralized systems makes modifications and expansions faster and easier. Not to mention the savings in reduced maintenance costs.
Available with all SEW gearing types, our award winning MOVIMOT® smart gearmotors have been proving the advantages of integrated stepless speed control, protection and monitoring for years now. Along with our exclusive "field distributor" technology, they offer a proven decentralized drive solution that is unmatched for its control flexibility and reliability.
SEW applications engineers are available regionally, coast to coast, to show you how a decentralized drive solution from SEW-Eurodrive can deliver greater uptime, and save you money. Contact your nearest sales representative for more information.
