Motore
Earlier: DC- and wound-rotor motor with high wear and spare parts requirements.
Today: Frequency inverter-controlled asynchronous motors with speed monitoring and low maintenance
Limit switch technology
Earlier: Complicated to adjust and space-consuming end switches.
Today: Easily adjustable geared cam limit switches, with incremental encoders for distance measurement and gripper adjustment.
Switchgear
Earlier: Unregulated switching technology with air-break contactors.The procurement of spare parts has become expensive or even impossible.
Today: Regulated drive technology with state-of-the-art control- and diagnostic systems. Safe, reliable operation with low maintenance.
