NORD DRIVESYSTEMS at inter airport Europe tradeshow

Bargteheide – At the inter airport Europe 2013 tradeshow, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will show high-efficiency drive units for baggage handling systems combining two-stage helical-bevel gearboxes, energy-saving motors, and distributed frequency inverters. The motors feature triple overload capacity and provide a constant torque over a wide operating range, enabling the drastic reduction of variant diversity in individual applications. NORD supplies efficient, comprehensive mechatronic solutions manufactured in-house.
