<h1>Strong Partner with Industry Knowledge</h1>
Manufacturers and operators of all types of packaging machines and transport systems need a strong partner with great expertise in drive technology and profound industry knowledge in the packaging industry. We are the reliable partner.
Asynchronous motors enable maximum process stability, reduce vibration and the risk of damage to the load or packaging machine. Read more in our white paper "Drive Technology in End-of-Line Packaging".

Electric drives play an important role for packaging machines. They can be used to convey packaging material, to drive tools, and to form and seal packages. These drives are essential to monitor and control the overall process.
They provide cost-efficient, precise, and reliable solutions for the entire packaging process. Electrical drive systems are easy to install, maintenance friendly, energy efficient, and can be quickly adapted to the requirements in the packaging process.
In primary packaging, food, pharmaceuticals and other hygiene-sensitive products are often packed. Drive systems in these applications must be easy to clean and resistant to chemical cleaning agents and potential contamination.
Electric drives have become more popular than pneumatic ones for secondary packaging machinery. Electrical drive systems enable more efficient processes through enhanced precision and control. Electric drives also have a longer service life and require less maintenance than pneumatic drive systems. For these applications, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS® offers a wide portfolio of drive components: motors, gear units, and drive electronics.
Heavy pallets, boxes, bags, and containers are moved in end-of-line packaging. Heavy loads must be transported over long travel distances. This requires individual and powerful drive systems. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS® offers drive components for all types of packaging, strapping, and palletizing machinery from a single source. NORD’s decentralized asynchronous motors with higher inertia are an ideal solution. Electric drives with higher inertia in the rotor ensure quality control and stability when moving heavy loads.
Supplying, storing, and transporting are all important stages of processing in the packaging industry. Powerful and efficient drive systems are required to transport indidivual units or large containers. With NORD DRIVESYSTEMS®’ wide portfolio, the team at NORD always finds suitable solutions needed for specific requirements.
Drives with centrally controlled servo motors are commonly used in end-of-line packaging. In applications with large inertia or long travel distances this is not required. Decentralized drive solutions offer numerous advantages such as low procurement costs, constructive freedom in machine design, faster commissioning and simplified maintenance and repair processes. We will present the advantages of decentralized drive technologies compared to conventional centrally controlled servo motors in our webinar.

The focus is on positioning accuracy and chemical resistance in primary packaging, and on the performance of the drives in end-of-line packaging. Some applications require higher hygienic standards for drive components.
Different criteria determine processing stages in the packaging industry: NORD DRIVESYSTEMS® offers optimally adjusted components for all stages. Together with you, our industry experts will develop a drive solution customized to your requirements.
<h2>Gearmotors</h2>
NORD DRIVESYSTEMS offers drive solutions for all types of packaging, strapping, palletizing, and conveying machinery, all from a single source. Geared motors, electric motors, and decentralized variable frequency drives that are fully matched and adjusted to the end-of-line packaging’s requirements.
Jütro GmbH & Co. KG Konserven und Feinkost from Jüterbog in Brandenburg is a traditional company that is specialized in the production of ketchup, remoulade sauce, mayonnaise, and salad cream. The Brandenburg company equipped a new PET bottling plant completely with gearmotors and variable frequency drives. Read here what convinced them about NORD DRIVESYSTEMS<sup>®</sup>’ solution.
