ABB has introduced an integrated 12-pulse bridge rectifier module for its ACS 600 range of medium power AC drives. The rectifier produces a 12-pulse power supply that reduces total harmonic distortion (THD) by 80%, compared to conventional six-pulse supplies.
An AC drive that combines accurate speed control and Direct Torque Control (DTC) with line braking for regenerative applications such as cranes, centrifuges and winding machines between 11 kW and 55 kW, is launched by ABB Industry Oy, Finland.
Nokian Renkaat, a leading producer of tyres for northern conditions,broke new ground in spring 1998 in choosing ABB's ACS 600 MultiDrivesystem to control the speed and torque of the motors driving thelatest batch mixer at the company's production facility in Nokia,Finland. According to factory servi
A closed loop AC drive with built-in motion control and positioning, has been launched by ABB Industry Oy. The company claims the ACS 600 MotionControl offers servo performances from standard AC induction motors.
ABB's ACS 600 SingleDrive range of variable speed AC drives has been extended from 630kW to 3MW. The power range starts at 2.2kW. This is the market's widest range of AC drives based on Direct Torque Control (DTC) technology, according to ABB.
Two new software packages from ABB are set to make commissioning, monitoring and process control of the company's ACS 600 AC drives as straight forward as operating a mouse, claims the company. DriveWindow simplifies commissioning and DriveLink allows ACS 600 drives to be controlled via Windows appl
A variable speed AC microdrive with the functions and communication facilities comparable to larger drives has been launched by ABB. Covering 0.37kW to 2.2kW, 200V to 480V, in single and three phase, the ACS 140 offers Modbus, serial communications, two relay outputs and two analogue inputs. Feature
The first ever drive system incorporating Direct Torque Control (DTC) inverters on a common DC bus has been launched by ABB. The ACS 600 MultiDrive uses DTC to give excellent performance with or without pulse encoder on demanding applications, such as rollers and conveyors in the paper and metals in
ABB is launching its first micro drive, taking the power rating of its extensive AC drives range from 2.2kW down to 0.37kW, in 200V and 240V single phase and three phase.Simple operation, accurate speed control, easy installation and fast commissioning are features of the low cost ACS 100.
