The new DM 0138 synchronous drum motor extends the proven range of high-performance synchronous motors from Interroll and opens new applications for customers and users, particularly in highly dynamic logistics centers and in the food industry.

Like the existing DM 0080 and DM 0113 series, the new DM 0138 offers maximum acceleration and braking performance with very low energy consumption and the ability to precisely position conveyed goods on a system without the use of additional sensors, greatly simplifying the integration of packaging and other Source: InterrollSource: Interrollprocessing machines into an automated flow of goods, for example. The new synchronous motor with a diameter of 138 mm and an output of 1.8 kW also impresses with its very compact design: Comparable outputs could previously only be achieved with conventional asynchronous motors with a diameter of 165 mm.

The new DM 0138 synchronous motor is also available in an oil-free version option. Like all drum motors from Interroll, the construction and design of the fully enclosed drive comply with the guidelines of the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group. In addition, to meet even the most stringent requirements, only materials certified according to U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration specifications and European Union Regulation EC 1935/2004 are used.
