Extrusion International USA 5-2022

77 Extrusion International 5/2022 installation area. Due to the flexible design of the motor flange, the mo - tor’s installation position can be freely selected and adapts to the respective machine design. The converter series b maXX 5300 includes feed-in and regenerative units as well as drive units, which can be quickly and easily combined by an integrated drive connect system. This allows the machine builder to benefit from low installation costs and short commissioning and service times. The controllers impress with their high power density and very small instal- lation space. The power supply units have been expanded to include peak outputs of up to 300 kW. This is ideal for the plastics sector, because short- term high peak power outputs are of- ten needed for dynamic movements such as the opening and closing of the closing unit. In addition to the b maXX 5300 side- by-side system, the bmaXX 5500mono units are also available. Power outputs from 1.1 to 315 kW can therefore be covered. The entire bmaXX 5000 se- ries also offers higher safety functions such as SLS (Safe Limited Speed) and SLP (Safe Limited Position) directly in the drive and a large number of cool- ing options for optimum use. Water-cooled torque motors im- press with their highly compact de- sign and optimal heat removal. Direct coupling achieves high stiffnesses and therefore very good force transfer to- gether with ideal control properties. The execution as a hollow shaft vari - ant improves accessibility and enables media and tools to be fed through. For example, spindle drives can be inte - grated in a hollow shaft. This enables optimizations in the compact machine construction and in the process engi- neering. Several industry-specific drive com - ponents are also exhibited on the trade fair stand. One example is a torque motor version with thrust bearings. These thrust bearing motors were designed for use in extruders. Here the extruder screw is directly cou - pled with the motor shaft. The motor can therefore be connected in a space- saving and direct way, even under the high prevailing axial forces.
