ABB has enhanced its Roller table motor range to meet rising demand from the steel sector. These motors, designed for the harsh, high-temperature, and corrosive conditions of steel mills, are paired with ABB variable speed drives (VSDs) to handle heavy workloads while reducing downtime and operating costs.
The Roller table motors are engineered for durability, featuring a shockproof and temperature-resistant casing that resists dust and moisture. ABB’s renowned quality and reliability testing further ensure a long service life.
Peter-Stefan Tampsi, Segment Manager at ABB IEC Low Voltage Motors, stated, “Steel production environments are extremely challenging, both in terms of the process and market demands. The robustness of our Roller table motors, combined with ABB’s VSDs, plays a crucial role in improving both competitiveness and profitability for steel producers.”
ABB’s Roller table motors are built to improve the efficiency and reliability required by the steel industry. The motors are fully customizable in terms of size, configuration, and power rating, allowing for easy installation, even in older mills with outdated infrastructure.
Tampsi added, “A unified approach to selecting motors and VSDs is essential for upgrading the global steel industry. Our goal is to be a one-stop solution for the sector, and our Roller table motors are now available more quickly than ever.”
