CFIA Rennes 2025: WEG to showcase energy efficient technologies
WEG plans to return at CFIA Rennes 2025 to showcase its most recent advancements in digital solutions, motors, and drives.
Taking place from March 18 to 20, 2025 at Rennes Parc Expo, this premier exhibition for the food processing industry is renowned for showcasing the latest advancements in industrial equipment.
The team will showcase the CFW900 VSD, a high-performance VSD offering advanced energy-saving features, simplified configuration and increased productivity, making it ideal for conveyor and process applications. Accompanying this drive, visitors can find the W23Sync+, a permanent magnet/reluctance hybrid motor designed for superior energy performance in challenging environments. Engineered to surpass current standards with the CFW900 VSD, this motor offers an unprecedented level of energy efficiency, with an IE5 rating.
At the heart of WEG’s display will be the WG20 geared motor, a versatile solution engineered for maximum reliability. Available in various gear designs — including helical, parallel shaft and helical bevel — this motor is adaptable to diverse applications, including hazardous environments, thanks to its ATEX certification. Additionally, the new WG20S helical worm geared motor, offering torque capabilities of up to 1600 Nm, will be featured in the latest WG20 brochure.
Also featured will be the WEGscan, an innovative digital monitoring solution that provides real-time insights into motor performance. By collecting data on key parameters like temperature, vibration in three axes and magnetic field, this sensor helps optimise operations, minimise downtime and streamline maintenance for food processing facilities.
The CFW500 IP66 will be demonstrated, an advanced technology device that offers excellent performance for applications requiring speed and torque control, in three phase induction motors and permanent magnet motors. The new washdown version with NEMA4X/IP66 protection rating increases the product’s robustness, ensuring protection against the ingress of dust and water jets from any direction, making it perfect to fit the hygiene requirements of the food industry.
“Our showcase at CFIA 2025 reflects the breadth and versatility of WEG’s portfolio and reaffirms our commitment to supporting the food industry with energy-efficient solutions,” said Loic Kentrotis, marketing manager at WEG France. “From the WG20 geared motor’s adaptability to the intelligence of WEGscan and the robust design of the CFW500, our products empower the food industry to meet their operational goals while aligning with sustainability targets.”
Visitors are invited to meet the WEG team at stand 3-A20 to explore the technologies, gain insights into their applications and discuss how these solutions can transform operations
