Reliable speed detection for stable drive performance
In electric drives with asynchronous motors, accurate speed detection supports the traction control system in optimally utilizing the available torque. High-precision sensors contribute to maximum efficiency, optimal torque, and smooth motor operation.
Particularly at high rotational speeds, slip or rotational speed fluctuations of individual drive axles must be detected quickly and reliably. Dynamically stable speed signals help the motor controller adjust torque so that the tires regain optimal grip on the road. This improves drive efficiency, reduces mechanical stress, and contributes to smooth, comfortable driving behavior.
With our sensors, you receive a long-lasting, fail-safe solution for reliable control of asynchronous motors – for stable performance throughout the entire service life of your drive.
Speed serves as the central control variable in asynchronous motors to ensure stable and dynamic drive behavior. Since the motor inherently operates with slip between rotor and stator due to its physical principle, a slip model is frequently employed to precisely determine the actual rotor position and speed.
Through closed-loop control with sensor feedback, these values can be continuously monitored and adaptively corrected. This enables accurate torque generation, improves starting behavior, and increases robustness under load changes.
Precise speed and position feedback also enhances efficiency, as the motor operates closer to its optimal working point, and improves performance with regard to dynamics, energy consumption, and thermal load.
Speed sensing plays a key role in electric drives, as it forms the basis for precise motor control. Modern sensors capture speed and rotor position with high resolution, enabling the motor controller to align the magnetic flux accurately and achieve maximum efficiency.
Especially during strong acceleration and at high rotational speeds, sensor signals must be stable, fast, and interference-resistant. At the same time, compact motor architectures demand space-saving, thermally robust integration of the sensing components directly within the drive.
Our sensors enable reliable, long-lasting, and performance-optimized control even under demanding operating conditions.
Condition monitoring is the key for the reliability of modern electric drives. Through the continuous acquisition of relevant status data such as temperature, vibrations, and speed, deviations can be detected at an early stage and downtime avoided.
Data-based evaluation methods enable component loads to be monitored in real time and trends to be analyzed. This not only extends the service life of critical components but also optimizes the efficiency of the entire drive system.
Our condition monitoring solutions can be integrated directly into the motor and communicate via standardized interfaces. They enable predictable maintenance, reduced operating costs, and maximum availability of high-performance electric drives.
