The variants can be integrated via PROFIsafe or FSOE into a safety-related application in an existing Industrial Ethernet network. The desired Industrial Ethernet dialect is simply parameterized during commissioning. Stand-alone use is also possible, for example for a single-axis machine. In this case, the safety-related digital inputs of the inverters can also be used to integrate safety-related peripheral components. This allows emergency stop buttons, safety door switches, and light barriers to be connected directly – without any additional hardware, installation, or cabling.

This finish prevents flaking or corrosive infiltration, meaning that the protective effect remains intact even in the event of minor mechanical damage. The surface finish therefore offers major advantages when used in hygiene-critical areas in the food, beverage and packaging industries, as well as in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. NXD tupH® surfaces are PFAS-free and food-compliant in accordance with the FDA, EU Regulation 1935/2004 and the regulations of Switzerland and the MERCOSUR countries.
Advantages
- Not a coating, but a durable finish
- Makes aluminium harder and resistant to acids and alkalis
- Aluminium is lightweight, cost-effective and fully recyclable
- Aluminium housings have better thermal conductivity than stainless steel, which reduces their maximum surface temperature
- Ideal for use in hygiene-critical areas and industries
Electric Motors
NORD’s line of synchronous and asynchronous motors conform to international energy guidelines and certifications – from standard IE1 up to the ultra-premium efficient IE5+. They are designed to perform efficiently and safely in harsh conditions, where extremely heavy loads have to be moved, or where there is a dust or gas explosion hazard.
Electric motors from NORD are manufactured in-house for supply to all major markets throughout the world. This ensures a high level of independence from external suppliers and provides our customers with the decisive advantage of short, dependable lead times.
NORD motors are also highly customizable. Available options include, but are not limited to:
- Brakes
- Encoders
- Environmental protection features
- External cooling fans
- Thermal protection
- Connectivity solutions
In future, individually configured drive systems can be requested as simulation models via the myNORD customer portal. Design engineers can use these to check whether the drive concept is suitable for the plant during the planning phase. Virtual commissioning significantly reduces project time – even for complex systems. Virtual commissioning prevents errors, minimises risks and considerably shortens time-to-market.
Advantages
- Faster availability and commissioning
- Drive configurations can be tested in advance
- Error correction at an early stage of development
- Easy adjustments possible based on data
- Delivery after customer validation
Customer Portal myNORD
myNORD is NORD’s central, digital customer portal. This online tool offers practical and quick support for collaboration and simplifies shared business processes. Currently, approximately 26,500 customers worldwide use the customer portal.Improved User Guidance
A new user guidance system in the myNORD Shop now makes it easier for customers to find, configure, and order the right parts.
Gear units, motors, frequency inverters, and many other NORD products can now be ordered directly around the clock. With just one click, customers can see whether the desired component is available from stock. They also receive information about prices and the estimated delivery time. For orders placed before noon, same-day shipping is often possible.
All information regarding orders, order statuses, and deliveries is available centrally via the myNORD portal.
