Through its modular offerings for mobile systems, SEW EURODRIVE provides inventive, reliable hardware and software components from one source. This modular system assists customers looking to broaden their portfolio or establish a presence in the mobile solutions market.
SEW‑EURODRIVE produces cutting-edge, high-quality technologies for mobile systems and possesses extensive application knowledge in this field. This is especially advantageous for suppliers and operators of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), along with companies looking to incorporate AGVs and AMRs into their material handling technology offerings. The SEW‑EURODRIVE modular technology framework for mobile applications relies on established, well-coordinated components and modules that facilitate configurable and validated functions along with automation solutions.
SEW‑EURODRIVE’s ELV (Extra Low Voltage) drive solution for mobile systems provides travel drives optimized for system solutions, ensuring protective extra-low voltage. The distinctive nested structure facilitates a narrow vehicle width, coaxially positioned wheel axes, and utilizes the vehicle’s geometric center. The absence of planetary gear units makes maintenance easier and lowers operating expenses. Additionally, this sturdy solution features an outstanding service life that ensures the travel drives are a dependable and eco-friendly option. Users can also choose an output shaft equipped with an encoder and a brake.
Wheels tailored to the customer are also an option. The integrated gear units span a broad range of gear ratios and come in various sizes. The complete drive unit exhibits a high efficiency level and is completely incorporated into SEW‑EURODRIVE’s MOVI‑C® range. All software components needed for running control programs are accessible for different functions and applications of bidirectional and omnidirectional vehicle types. They consist, for instance, uniquely tailored kinematics modules for the drive train to attain outstanding travel precision using a vector-controlled approach (x, y, ω kinematic).
