How the switch to a decentralized drive solution pays off
With a compact, scalable and efficient solution:
- Reduced energy consumption due to savings during idling and partial-load operation as well as due to use of the "VFC eco" energy saving function
- Compact drive solution, even in the case of heavy load
- Significantly smaller control cabinets and simplified topology
- A significant reduction in cabling costs
- A significant reduction in the number of drive versions
- Soft starting and braking with adjustable ramps mean less strain and stress on material and goods being transported, while simultaneously reducing the amount and cost of maintenance work needed
A numerical example for a materials handling application: With only six drives, a saving of 4,500 € in project costs and a further annual reduction in maintenance costs of almost 1,000 € could be achieved.

A single motor for many applications in horizontal conveyor technology.
The Lenze Smart Motor – Contactor and starter do not feature, fixed speeds can be set at will and there are numerous integrated functions for materials handling applications:
- The functionality of contactor, starter and FI are covered in one device
- Up to 4 times overload reduces the variety of variants Speed, motor protection, control – benefit from fast installation and wiring options
- Freely adjustable conveyor speeds reduce risks in the project and minimise commissioning costs
- There is no brake wear – the Lenze Smart Motor has integrated brakes, eliminating the working brake protects the mechanics and the material being conveyed
- An integrated EcoMode saves costs for electricity and during commissioning and system operation
