Variable Frequency Drive allows speed ranges up to 20:1.

Press Release Summary:



Variable Frequency Drive fits new and existing Chainveyor® systems. It utilizes AC frequency controller with motor and gear reducer combination. Controller electronically controls speed and limits output torque to preprogrammed levels. Helical gear reducers with Inverter Duty TEFC motors allow full torque rating at broad range of speeds. Full function options include soft starting and overload protection.




Original Press Release:



Gregory-Adams, Inc. Introduces the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)



Gregory-Adams, Inc. Introduces the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) now available for new and existing Gregory-Adams, Inc. Chainveyor® systems. The Chainveyor® overhead conveyor is an efficient and economical system that has been solving material handling problems for over 40 years. Since acquiring Chainveyor® in 1991, Gregory-Adams, Inc. has continued the tradition of providing the highest quality products and complete customer satisfaction. Gregory-Adams, Inc. is a front runner in providing material handling solutions making it the Best Name in the Business.

The VFD utilizes a state-of-the-art AC frequency controller with motor and gear reducer combination to provide maximum output speed rage. It offers great advantages such as:
o Easy speed change with push button control
o Reduces maintenance by eliminating many of the mechanical drive parts such as variable pitch sheaves, V-Belts, and torque limiters. The VFD controller electronically controls speed and limits output torque to preprogrammed levels.
o Broad speed range. Variable Frequency Drives allow speed ranges up to 20:1. Mechanical variable pitch sheaves have a speed range of less than 2:1
o Improved Gearmotor Design. High efficient helical gear reducers with Inverter Duty TEFC motors allow full torque rating at a broad range of speeds with less heat buildup than double worm gear reducers.
o Foil Function VFD controller. Variable Frequency Drives offer full function options such as soft starting, torque limiting and overload protection
