Intelligent Feed-in Converter

Mon, 16 Apr 2012 13:32:00 +0200

In energy production the trend goes toward renewable energies for private as well as commercial consumers – and consequently to appropriate installations and components used for the different methods of alternative, decentralized energy generation. In this context the feed-in converters or the frequency converters are of particular importance: They are the connecting link between the sun, wind, geothermal or waste heat energy and the public low-voltage grid. Only a control technology suited to the application and operating conditions with pinpoint accuracy makes efficient and economical operation of the unit possible.

Feed-in Converters for Renewable Energies on the Upswing

Customized Servo Controller

Thu, 22 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0200

In many areas the requirements to machines or applications are so specific that precise adaptations of functions and design are needed. Application-oriented and performance-based modification of servomotoric techniques, for example, may be complex and cost-intensive. SIEB & MEYER AG provides customized system designs as solutions for these applications.

ORC Systems

Thu, 22 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0200

The efficiency of systems for residual and waste heat utilization is significantly increased when proper frequency converter technology is used. Therefore SIEB & MEYER systematically modified the features of the device basis SD2S for this field of application.

Customized Drive Technology

Fri, 16 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0200

Industrial electronics play a central role in almost all fields of automated production. In many areas the requirements to machines or applications are so specific that precise adaptations of functions and design are needed.

A Special Type of Control

Thu, 08 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0200

"The speed of the economic motor has increased further [...]", Dr. Wolfram von Fritsch, CEO of Deutsche Messe AG (German trade fair company), concludes at the Hannover Messe in April. This increase in performance is deliberate and normally proves to be unproblematic. It is different with speeds of high speed electric motors. In this field proper prevailing conditions must be established; otherwise "exodus" might follow. Why and how to prevents this is explained below.

A Special Type of Control

Thu, 28 Apr 2011 00:00:00 +0200

Many high speed electric motors are limited in performance due to heat-sensitive components for protection against thermal destruction. SIEB & MEYER AG from Lüneburg focused on motor heating caused by frequency converters and has developed converters with controlled intermediate circuit. These devices allow heat-reduced top speed.

The Knack That Makes the Difference

Fri, 01 Apr 2011 00:00:00 +0200

In many areas the requirements to machines or applications are so specific that precise adaptations of functions and design are needed. This applies for example for servomotor drives of electronic nut runners used in the automotive industry for assembling applications, where performance with high quality requirements is an important factor.

Maximum Performance

Mon, 01 Nov 2010 00:00:00 +0100

As usual small things have a great effect – like the main spindle of a machine tool. Concerning increase in performance, the main spindle is hardly taken into account. But it's time to rethink: If the main spindle is combined with the appropriate frequency converter double-digit growth values can be reached for cutting aluminum alloy.
