- IndraDrive ML
IndraDrive ML large electric drives—the megawatt-sized universal inverter
Powerful, flexible and intelligent, IndraDrive ML large electric drives help machine manufacturers meet their exact needs. The IndraDrive ML helps reduce costs while increasing productivity and is well-suited for the demands of offshore applications. Additional benefits include:
- Application-optimized for energy efficiency
- High power density and compact design
- Modular universal inverters
- Heave Compensation
Active heave compensation
Varying sea conditions can often interfere with offshore productivity. Active heave compensators enable smooth operations and steady positioning to keep offshore applications moving. Bosch Rexroth has been a pioneer in this technology, with numerous system variants created to ensure that active heave compensators can fit your requirements. Advantages include:
- Smooth operation
- Accurate positioning to maintain a steady load
- Compensation for roll, pitch and heave motion caused by waves
- Power savings up to 85 percent
- Winch Control
Hydraulic winch control—flexible control for winches and cranes
Rexroth’s flexible control solution for winch and crane systems simplifies commissioning to reduce costs and errors. The controller can withstand vibrations and shocks, making it particularly well-suited for offshore applications. Safe, easy and compact, the control solution provides proven technology, field-tested components and reliable software.
- Hägglunds CBM Motors
Hӓgglunds CBM motors—do more with less
Powerful and energy efficient, Hӓgglunds CBM direct drive motors deliver 50 percent more torque in a compact package that’s half the weight of its predecessor. These robust motors are ideal for marine and offshore applications. Benefits include:
- Increased productivity with 50 percent more torque than its predecessor
- Tighter footprint and 50 percent lighter than its predecessor
- Maximum torque of 2,000 kNm
- Full torque from from zero speed
- Operational in all four quadrants
- CIMSmart
CIMSmart – the smart solution for monitoring LHC data
Designed to capture and store information about Large Hydraulic Cylinders (LHC), CIMSmart expands original CIMS technology to give original equipment manufacturers the opportunity to build systems that offer a more sophisticated level of operational management, application monitoring and maintenance planning. Advantages include monitoring of the following data:
- Total travelled distance at both low and high speeds
- Piston rod travel distance history
- Stroke length distribution
