Interesting Facts about SETCON Motors

Electric Motors have revolutionized the world of power and speed control, providing precise, robust, and outstanding performance across various industries. The Servos - 6-pole electric motors of the SETCON variable-speed gearbox, in particular, operate with strong results in the matter of energy efficiency and sustainability. The reliability of SETCON Servo Motors is based on both – their innovative development and centuries-old engineering heritage.

The state-of-art motors are one of the key reasons of the gearbox’s high energy savings. With the advanced Soft-Start technology, SETCON is able to operate in three modes:

·???????? supporting the safe, moderate start of the Main Motor of the Drive Train with minimal inrush current,

·???????? generating and redirecting extra energy for its sustainable reuse,

·???????? and upgrading the overall output power of the Main Motor.

The journey of electric motors began 190 years ago. The concept can be traced back to the early 19th century with the work of Thomas Davenport, who built the first commercially successful electric motor in 1834.

Further development of the electric motors was accompanied by the discovery of their reversibility. The inventions of Zenobe Gramme in 1873 and Frank Sprague in the 1880s fit the arising demand for energy savings and efficiency.

Continuous, meticulous research and experiments brought to life the application of various radical improvements. The inventions of such technologies as AC systems, permanent magnets, brushless commutators, sensors, and finally digitalization – all contributed to the modern success of electric motors and their high relevance for variable-speed applications.
