NORD now provides digital twins for system improvement. Based mostly on a myNORD configuration, it’s now attainable to request individually created drive techniques as simulation fashions. This permits engineers to confirm early within the planning section whether or not the drive idea is appropriate for the system. Digital commissioning considerably reduces the venture time – even for advanced techniques.
Because the publication of the FMI (purposeful mock-up interface) technical customary in 2010, it has turn into increasingly more widespread to work with simulation fashions in system planning. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS additionally makes use of data-based simulations for the event of its parts and drive options. The system supplier is now utilizing this know-how to assist its prospects obtain higher effectivity and availability of its drive techniques even within the planning section by providing a digital service: With digital twins of its drives, NORD permits digital commissioning.
Easy on-line configuration
Customers can configure drive techniques or parts for his or her necessities as regular through the myNORD buyer portal. They choose parts and their options equivalent to efficiency, mounting choices or outputs. Then, they’ll request a simulation mannequin for the absolutely configured drive system. The method was developed by NORD in cooperation with the software program firm Machineering from Munich, which specialises in digital commissioning.
Just some weeks till precise commissioning
The benefit of those digital twins of the NORD options is the considerably quicker availability of your entire system. The simulation fashions are inserted right into a equally simulated system. On this atmosphere, the drive configurations might be extensively examined. If changes are required, they are often simply carried out based mostly on the information. Errors might be remedied within the early levels of improvement, avoiding potential later harm. Solely as soon as the digital drive system has been validated by the client, will probably be manufactured and delivered by NORD. Because the drives are already functionally built-in into the system management at this level, precise commissioning is feasible in a really quick time. The general course of from configuration to commissioning is decreased from a number of months to only some weeks.
Excessive-efficiency
Digital commissioning of drive techniques is of particular curiosity for any technically demanding resolution. Subsequently, NORD notably focuses on parts that play a decisive function in automating manufacturing processes. The producer is kicking off the digital commissioning with its vary of high-efficiency IE5+ and IE4 motors, together with the corresponding gear models and frequency inverters. Simulation fashions will then regularly turn into obtainable for different NORD product areas as nicely.
