Efficiency in Continuous Operation

Moving materials over varied distances at high speeds, NORD's belt conveyor solutions provide optimized system efficiency, a high power density. and a space-saving design. Our drive solutions for belt conveyors achieve high efficiency over a wide torque range, making it suitable for operation in partial load and speed ranges.

Drive Technology for Belt Conveyors

  • Energy efficiency
  • Economic operation in partial load and speed ranges
  • Synchronous motors without encoders

High-Speed Transport

Tray conveyors consist of two narrow belts on which the baggage items are transported in flat, rectangular containers – also known as trays or tubs. As they do not require a conveyor belt, they run more easily and achieve higher speeds than belt conveyors. Geared motors with brakes are therefore a must, as is energy-saving operation. Stand-alone motors are also often used.

Drive Technology for Tray Conveyors:

  • High-efficiency drive systems
  • Geared motors with STO functions
  • Stand-alone motors
