One of the key advantages of nsd tupH over stainless steel is cost-effectiveness. Aluminum, as a material, is more affordable than stainless steel, making nsd tupH drive solutions a cost-efficient alternative. Additionally, NORD Drivesystems offers nsd tupH across a wider range of product options made of aluminum, providing flexibility in choosing the most suitable drive components for specific applications.
Furthermore, aluminum offers better thermal conductivity compared to stainless steel. This characteristic ensures lower temperatures within the gear unit and motor components, which can be critical for maintaining optimal performance in packaging operations. Additionally, aluminum is lighter than stainless steel, enabling easier installation and reduced energy consumption.
In addition to the packaging industry, nsd tupH is applicable in various other sectors. The surface treatment is highly suitable for use in extremely humid environments such as car wash facilities, waterworks, maritime and coastal areas. Its resistance to corrosion makes it a reliable choice in such challenging conditions.
NORD Drivesystems has successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of nsd tupH in practical applications within food and pharmaceutical companies. For instance, in a seafood and shellfish processing company, the drive components previously made of cast iron had to be replaced every one or two years due to the corrosive effects of saltwater. However, the nsd tupH-protected drive units have proven to be durable and have been used for an extended period under these harsh conditions.
NORD Drivesystems has been a leading global full-service provider of drive technology since 1965. With approximately 4,700 employees, the company develops, produces, and sells a wide range of drive solutions for over 100 industries. They offer gear units for torques ranging from 10 Nm to over 282 kNm, electric motors with power ratings from 0.12 kW to 1,000 kW, and the necessary power electronics with frequency inverters up to 160 kW.
NORD Drivesystems’ nsd tupH surface treatment provides the packaging industry with corrosion-resistant and robust drive solutions. The electrolytic process creates a permanent protective layer on aluminum surfaces, offering corrosion resistance similar to stainless steel. This treatment is not only cost-effective but also provides better thermal conductivity and lighter weight compared to stainless steel alternatives. With its extensive applications in various industries, nsd tupH has proven to be a reliable choice for demanding environments, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliability in drive technology.
