We have taken On-Machine motor control to the next level with Armor PowerFlex motor control solutions. Smart, safe, secure, and simple – Armor PowerFlex drives are a scalable solution designed to help meet your application needs.
Our On-Machine solution is a decentralized equipment design approach that helps reduce the challenges seen in cabinet-based solutions for OEMs and end users.
Whether you are an OEM or an end user, your time is valuable
If getting operations up and running quickly is what matters to you, an Armor PowerFlex motor control solution can help. Armor PowerFlex drives and our Logix control platform share one user-friendly software environment. Having the shared platform can make designing, integrating, and maintaining a unified system simpler and faster.
An On-Machine solution could be right for you—whether you’re an OEM or an end user. With an Armor PowerFlex drive you can:
- Reduce your engineering time and help expedite integration significantly
- Speed your installation time through flexible mounting orientations and quick-connect cables
- Lower total cost by using a simple, more modular approach to machine design
- Reduce risk of failure with our environmentally robust design
Durability & safety built into the design
Keeping your equipment clean is a must in grimy areas. Armor PowerFlex drives are designed to withstand water wash down, so it’s appropriate for your most demanding applications. Our smart, safe, secure and simple features don’t stop there. Integrated networked safety in Armor PowerFlex drives helps simplify your machine design and minimize component redundancies.
