Less Complexity, More Efficiency: Lenze Revolutionizes Conveyance
Lenze is transforming the future of intralogistics with its groundbreaking magnetic motor-driven roller (MDR), the o450. Designed to directly integrate into existing conveyor systems, the o450 delivers an impressive 115 watts of power—more than twice as strong as current market options. This powerful performance is combined with exceptional energy efficiency, offering up to 30% energy savings compared to conventional MDR systems.
Thanks to its innovative Vernier principle, the o450 operates with remarkable quietness while producing less heat. This unique design reduces copper and iron losses, leading to improved efficiency: cooler copper windings have lower resistance, and cooler magnets maintain higher magnetic flux linkage, ensuring optimal torque with lower energy consumption. Depending on speed, the o450 achieves efficiency classes IE7-IE9, making it a sustainable and cost-effective solution.
To put this into perspective: in a logistics center with 20,000 Lenze MDRs across 20 km of conveyor lines, energy savings could reach 335 MWh annually, reducing CO2 emissions by 145 tons.
The o450 offers full nominal torque even at low speeds, enabling smooth acceleration of goods weighing up to 30 kg. Operating at 24V or 48V, the system simplifies maintenance—non-electricians can safely replace, install, or maintain the roller. Additionally, its gearless design eliminates the need for traditional gear ratios, reducing variances by 85%, streamlining inventory, and minimizing design complexity.
With integrated cabling for power, speed, and temperature monitoring, the o450 eliminates the need for additional cables, offering a clean, efficient, and sustainable solution. Exceptionally quiet, compact, and powerful, the Lenze o450 sets a new benchmark in motor-driven rollers, making conveyor systems more efficient and warehouses more comfortable work environments.
