When the diverse motor technologies within one plant are controlled by a single drive platform, the designer is free to choose the best motor for each task .
This may be the traditional asynchronous or inductance motor (IM), or a high-efficiency permanent magnet (PM) or synchronous reluctance (SynRM) motor.
Using one VLT® drive type throughout the site reduces costs for both storage and training in operation. And motor retrofit to PM or SynRM is easy, since no exchange of the drive is needed.
