Optimal protection in harsh environments – NXD BASIC® and NXD tupH®

The NXD surface finish was developed specifically for aluminum. NORD offers it in two variants:

NXD BASIC® consists of an electrochemically produced base coat supplemented by a layer of paint. The corrosion protection remains effective even if the paint is damaged. This variant is suitable for use in demanding environmental conditions, such as in the following areas:

  • Offshore
  • Shipping
  • Water treatment
  • Car washes

NXD tupH® is the ideal surface protection for the extreme conditions found in wash-down applications. The NXD tupH finish consists of a base layer, whereby the upper layer of the aluminum body is converted into a corrosion-resistant layer. Combining this with a sealer results in extreme hardness, durability, and corrosion resistance. This offers advantages when used in hygiene-critical areas, for example in:

  • The food and beverage industry
  • The packaging industry
  • The pharmaceutical and chemical industries

Advantages of NXD

  • Not a coating, but a durable finish
  • Unlocks the strengths of aluminum components in demanding environments: lightweight, cost-effective, and fully recyclable
  • Aluminum housings also have better thermal conductivity than stainless steel, which reduces their maximum surface temperature
  • Corrosion resistance in accordance with corrosion class C5

Energy efficient drives from NORD

Saving energy and reducing TCO with IE5+ motors and customer-specific advice from NORD

We offer customer-specific advice to reduce Total Cost of Ownership. This includes all aspects associated with the purchase, operation, potential maintenance and recycling of a drive system. On the one hand, life cycle costs can be optimised through variant reduction and standardisation, and on the other hand, highly-efficient drive solutions such as the IE5+ synchronous motor from NORD reduce energy consumption.

A well-matched drive concept not only helps to save costs for energy, administration, maintenance and wear. The use of fewer variants also enables more streamlined production, logistics, storage and service processes.

 

We will find the best solution for you

With the NORD ECO service, we also offer the possibility of achieving higher energy efficiency in the application. After measuring the performance data, we analyse and interpret it in terms of consumption, utilisation and TCO. This enables a comparison with other drive systems in order to make the best ecological and economical decision.

NORD DRIVE MONITOR: Smart IIoT solution for plant monitoring

With its new, modular IIoT solution NORD DRIVE MONITOR, NORD supports users with condition monitoring for predictive maintenance. NORD DRIVE MONITOR continuously provides dynamically calculated and sensor-recorded operating values – such as phase currents, heat sink temperatures or torques – for further processing. This enables users to keep track of the current status of electronic drive systems in a plant and detect anomalies or wear at an early stage. This makes maintenance measures easier to plan. NORD DRIVE MONITOR reduces failures and downtime, extends the service life of machines and plants, and significantly streamlines production processes and operating costs.

The most important points at a glance

  • Robust and modular IIoT platform for collecting, storing and analysing plant data
  • Early detection of wear and anomalies through trend recognition and threshold value checks
  • Visualisation of operating values on a configurable dashboard (Grafana)
  • Standardised interfaces for easy integration into application-specific customer solutions
  • Easy data integration and processing via MQTT and TimescaleDB
  • IIoT solution with Docker technology, usable in any IT environment

Functional safety

In the course of increasing digitalisation, automation and decentralisation in industry, functional safety is becoming more and more important and is an indispensable aspect of NORD drive systems. Our latest member of the decentralised frequency inverter family - the NORDAC ON - is therefore receiving a comprehensive safety upgrade: In addition to STO and SS1, the safe motion functions SLS, SMS or SSM for safety-related monitoring of the rotary motion will also be integrated in future - for even more safety when operating systems and machines.

The future variant of the NORDAC ON can be integrated into a safety-related application in an existing Industrial Ethernet network via PROFIsafe or FSOE. The desired Industrial Ethernet dialect is simply parameterised during commissioning. Stand-alone use is also possible, for example for a single-axis machine. In this case, the safety-related digital inputs and outputs of the NORDAC ON can also be used to integrate safety-related peripheral components/functions such as E-stop, reset, and door interlocks. When integrated into the safety controller via PROFIsafe or FSOE, the status of the safe digital inputs and outputs can be transferred from the device to the controller and vice versa.

Functional safety with NORDAC ON:

  • STO: Safe torque off (Safe Torque Off)
  • SS1: Safe Stop 1 (Safe Stop 1)
  • SLS: Safety Limited Speed - NEW 
  • SMS: Safe Maximum Speed - NEW 
  • SSM: Safe Speed Monitor - NEW

Virtual commissioning – a digital twin at the click of a mouse

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS uses data-based simulations for the development of its components and drive solutions. The system provider is now leveraging this expertise to help its customers achieve greater efficiency and availability of its drive systems with a digital service during the planning phase: NORD enables virtual commissioning with digital twins of its drives.

Digitaler_Zwilling_2025

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
