The integrated MGF..-DSM gearmotor, paired with MOVITRAC® LTP-B control cabinet inverter and Configurable Control Unit (CCU), meets system designers’ and operators’ needs for a highly efficient IE4 solution suitable for central control cabinet installations. This system extends MOVIGEAR® mechatronic drive advantages to central setups, with specially coordinated components fully integrated into SEW‑EURODRIVE software. Ideal for food/beverage transport systems, it is popular for energy-focused retrofits and new installations needing central inverter mounting. The new size 1 MGF..-DSM complements the portfolio, offering high efficiency for low-power central installations and conveyor applications requiring 10–100 Nm torques.
The MOVIGEAR® classic drive unit is an efficient, hygienic solution ideal for systems with special ambient conditions, featuring IE5 motor efficiency class (per IEC TS 60034-30-2). It integrates a permanent-field synchronous motor and a gear unit in a compact die-cast aluminum enclosure. Intelligently combinable with an inverter (installed near the motor or in the control cabinet), it offers optimal flexibility. Available in three gear unit sizes, it covers a power range of 0.4–3.0 kW, delivering the core benefits of an integrated drive system, energy efficiency, and adaptability to diverse system requirements.
Our agitator-design gearmotors are ideal for mixing, stirring, kneading, or aerating equipment, widely used in industries like biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and wastewater management. SEW-EURODRIVE offers specialized designs across three series, including the long-standing RM.. helical gear units and new FM../FAM.. (parallel-shaft) and KM../KAM.. (helical-bevel) units. These maximize space, allow direct agitator shaft insertion, and eliminate extra bearings. With overhung loads 25,000–176,500 N, motor power 0.12–200 kW, and output torque 820–20,000 Nm, they offer options like double oil seals and drywell design. Compatible IE1-IE3 motors are also available.
The S..DR.. helical-worm gearmotors feature high efficiency due to their design and integration with a helical gear stage, along with ultra-low noise to avoid excessive noise emissions. Ideal for those seeking high-performance, efficient drive solutions, they are fully customizable via a modular system, offering a wide range of sizes, gear ratios and motor options. Their greatest strength is smooth, near-silent operation. Compared to single helical-worm gear units, they boast higher efficiency, saving energy and reducing operating costs. Available with various AC motors, configurable properties, and optional flange/foot mounts or solid/hollow shafts, they save time and money through flexible modular combinations, long service life and simplified maintenance.
The K..DR.. Helical-Bevel Gearmotors are the industry gold standard for industrial applications needing space-saving, high-torque drives. Engineered for near-zero wear, they minimize maintenance and maximize uptime. Key advantages include integrated, tailored drive assemblies, up to 200 kW motor power with high efficiency, exceptional durability from premium components, modular versatility (various gear ratios, foot/flange mounts), and IE1-IE4 compatibility. Their modular system accelerates planning, robust gearing cuts costs, and low-maintenance design reduces downtime. Choosing K..DR.. means investing in a future-ready system that saves time and costs, meeting modern industry’s precision and reliability demands.
