These motor intensive applications require accurate torque and speed control. The lack of precise control in such applications can impact the quality of the final product and in most cases cause equipment downtime. Get ahead of these challenges and meet your goals with our industry-designed solutions.


Challenges by Application

Continuous Casting

Casting steel continuously without interruptions and anomalies is difficult to maintain. Unify your operations with drive systems, powerful machine analytics and advanced motor control capabilities to optimize casting operations while reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Hot and Cold Rolling

To meet the requirements of rolling processes, accuracy of thickness control, prediction and prevention of downtime, and monitoring production throughput are necessary. Achieve precise speed and tension control and high production quality with the integration between our process control, power and advanced drive solutions.

Finishing Lines

Complete machine automation control can help detect surface defects and increase productivity. Combine the right technology with application expertise for reliable operations and the right product quality in your finishing lines.
