Our company always takes extreme care in choosing the motor to install on its machines.

The motor can be supplied in various types, such as: 

• ventilated AC servo motor
• water cooled AC motor
• special executions of motors and extruders according to ATEX regulations

The motor is equipped with temperature sensors, encoders for more accurate speed control and, in the case of water-cooled motors, a system that monitors temperature and flow. Furthermore, the system is equipped with a solenoid valve and filter to prevent foreign parts from entering the engine.

A torque limiter is inserted between the motor and the gearbox to eliminate overloads, which can be generated by possible locking of the screws, preserving the gearbox. These devices, purchased externally, are however analyzed together with the supplier and customized according to use. The tripping of the limiter, which completely zeroes the torque, is signaled by a microswitch that stops the motor so as to prevent the latter, generated by the motor due to inertia, from discharging onto the gearbox.
