Overview
The modular MODULOG principle
The modular MODULOG principle has a range of benefits for
machine and plant designers.
The name MODULOG stands for a clear and transparent
modu
lar motor system, which offers optimum
log
istics, that
enables users to assemble powerful, durable, and extremely
easy-to-service motors in line with their own requirements for
most applications, from just a few standard components.
At the heart of this modular system is the basic motor, which is
designed to comply with international line supply conditions,
and a mounting shaft system, which can be individually config-
ured, at the non-drive end.
Functional expansions, such as brakes, backstops, rotary en-
coders, external fan, protective cover, a second motor shaft end,
etc. can be combined almost arbitrarily as "additional functional
components".
For further information about motor options, please refer to
Chapter 11 in Catalog MD 50.1.
