Industry

Actuator solutions for heat, protected spaces and hard-to-access installation positions.

Furnace construction and heat treatment create specific requirements for distance, protection, temperature and serviceability. S+R sizes actuators so drive, sensors and interface fit the environment.

retrofit of older systems

Requirements

Sizing starts with the environment, not with the nameplate.

temperature distance

This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.

protected drive technology

This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.

mechanical robustness

This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.

long service life

This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.

clear spare-part strategy

This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.

S+R solution route

Project requirements become a robust motion solution.

01

record temperature and space limits

The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.

02

derive motor position and design from the machine

The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.

03

place sensors in protected areas

The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.

04

include service and replacement strategy

The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.

Technology building blocks

Proven design principles as a basis for individual solutions.

AP, SP and XP are not a rigid product logic; they are typical ways to build force line, installation space, protection and control.
