The heart of your machine. The drive system.

The development of modern drive technologies has undergone rapid changes in the last 25 years, following the introduction of digital technologies and bus systems. Given the large number of converter systems and electric drives available, machine manufacturers and machine operators need to be careful not to leave the design and implementation of the drive – the heart of the machine – up to just anyone!
