MOVIFIT®

Decentralized installation technology combined with application-oriented drive and ­communication functions

The new MOVIFIT® system combines the established advantages of SEW-­EURODRIVE decentralized installation technology with modern, application-oriented drive and communication functions.


Demands on materials handling technology
For years now, the components from SEW-EURODRIVE's decentralized drive system have been proving how compact and modular a decentralized system structure can be in diverse applications. Nevertheless, drive engineering requirements are becoming ­increasingly demanding even in this field. The following are examples of some of the ­demands made on materials handling technology:

MOVIFIT at a glance:

Modular
Flexible
Economical
  • Available in three unit variants
  • New power electronics with frequency inverters and motor control switches
  • High level of integration
  • State-of-the-art connection technology makes for fast installation and startup, high degree of serviceability and ease of diagnostics also when replacing the electronics
  • New strategies for optimized system topologies are supported
  • Communication via all commercial fieldbus systems, including ETHERNET
  • Various areas of application
Reduced investment and operating costs and project planning times:
  • Standardized conveyor elements
  • Well-structured, functional system topology
  • Modular, decentralized concept allows for quick and easy expansion of a system should this become necessary
  • Reusability of the modules reduces project planning costs and time
  • A decentralized electronics unit enables control of several drives, which reduces the number of units
  • Minimizes the space required in the control cabinet
  • Minimizes error sources during wiring
  • MOVIFIT® HygienicPlus: Standard design for use under special ambient conditions, such as in wet areas
