At interpack in Dusseldorf, the drive specialist NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will present its wide product portfolio and great expertise in the packaging industry from 4 to 10 May 2023 – from decentralised frequency inverters to energy-efficient drives to high-performance surface treatments for wash-down or spray areas.

For the different types of bulk materials, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS offers suitable drives for belt conveyors, bucket elevators and other transport systems.

In a challenging year, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS also looks back on positive developments. Just before the turn of the years 2022/2023, the drive manufacturer passed the one billion euro sales threshold for the first time, increased its number of employees to 4,900 and opened new production locations worldwide.

With its digital customer self-service solutions, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS provides its customers with practical and fast support in their daily work. One example is the NORD Shop that is now available in 15 markets.

70 percent! That is the share of the total energy consumption of all industries for electric drives according to expert estimates. This is not only a significant cost factor – there is also a large optimisation and savings potential hidden here. The NORD ECO service helps companies to reveal this potential and to find the most efficient drive solution for their application.

Before the turn of the year 2022/2023, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will cross the sales of 1 billion euros for the first time. The company sees this as confirmation from its customers.

With high thermal limit powers, MAXXDRIVE XT industrial gear units have been optimised for bulk logistics applications such as belt conveyor systems.

Lifting applications place special demands on the installation space for drives. With MAXXDRIVE^® XD, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has now developed an industrial gear unit with increased centre distance that is ideally suited to the U-shaped configuration of drive, motor and cable drum.

How economic can an investment be? If you take the lifecycle of drive systems, only 15 percent of the Total Cost of Ownership is distributed on the purchase price, around 85 percent result from downstream processes. It is therefore important to not only keep an eye on the investment costs when making a purchase decision but also on the costs for energy and the ongoing operation, i.e. administration processes, service and maintenance, spare parts stocking or disposal.

Automatic bottling and conveyor systems in beverage and liquid food production set high requirements for energy efficiency, operational reliability, wash-down-capability and corrosion protection. As one of the world’s leading full-range suppliers for mechanical and electronic drive technology, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS knows the industry’s requirements and provides efficient, hygienic and reliable solutions for bottling and conveyor technology in beverage lines.
