A variable speed drive’s (VSD) primary job is to regulate how much energy is sent from the mains to the process. Drives with variable speeds are located between the power source and the motor. A drive receives electricity from the electrical source, and the drive then controls the amount of power delivered to the motor.
An electronic motor control device called a variable speed drive (VSD), sometimes known as a variable frequency drive (VFD), or an inverter, enables total control of the motor speed, including starting and stopping. To keep the motor operating at its best flux, it works by varying the frequency and voltage provided to the motor.
Variable speed drives considerably reduce the amount of energy used when operating centrifugal loads like fans. A fan, for instance, can be powered with eight times less horsepower if it operates at only 50% of its regular speed.
The global Variable Speed Drive market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
WEG, a maker of motors and drives, will introduce its new CFW900 variable speed drive (VSD) at the Drives & Controls trade show in Birmingham, United Kingdom.
WEG is a Brazilian manufacturer of electronic equipment that provides capital goods with electric machines, automation, and paint solutions for a variety of industries, including infrastructure, steel, pulp and paper, oil and gas, mining, and many more.
WEG will introduce the CFW900 drive to the UK and Ireland market at Drives & Controls, an event held at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham.
The newest frequency inverter model from CFW has a more user-friendly interface, better power density, and a more straightforward design that makes it easier for users to access setups and technical information. Additionally, the CFW900 can work with a variety of recently released digital products from WEG, such as Motion Fleet Management (MFM), which will be displayed at booth E110.
Using cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) technology, MFM is a control and monitoring solution for the operation of industrial assets. MFM generates real-time insights about motors, drives, and other industrial assets through asset monitoring and a combination of edge and in-cloud data processing, which it then shares with plant managers and engineers.
MFM works in conjunction with WEG Motor Scan and WEG Drive Scan, sensors that keep track of the temperature, vibration, and operating hours of their respective assets. Engineers and plant managers can gain operational insights from these technologies’ collection, transmission, and interaction with MFM.
