Components for the process industry NORD presents its applications at ACHEMA in Frankfurt/Main @NORD_Drive #Engineer #ACHEMA #Exhibition #August2022

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will present its solutions for the process industry at the world leading ACHEMA
exhibition from 22 to 26 August in Frankfurt am Main. The highlight on the stand is the SAFOMI-IEC adapter – an efficient and safe solution for mixer and agitator applications in chemical, pharmaceutical or food industries

NORD has developed the SAFOMI-IEC adapter (SAFOMI = Sealless Adapter For Mixers) specifically for
agitators. It has a compact and simple design, as well as an integrated oil expansion volume. Oil tanks and
hoses as well as the radial shaft seal that is subject to leakage and wear between gear unit and IEC cylinder are not required.

The SAFOMI-IEC adapter replaces a standard IEC adapter on the agitator drive, resulting in increased
operational reliability and reduced maintenance. Compared to the standard application, not only is the
required oil volume lower, but the installation space is also reduced thanks to the absence of attached
components.

High performance, few wear-prone parts

NORD offers the SAFOMI for MAXXDRIVE® parallel gear units in the sizes 7 to 11 and thus for maximum
output torques from 25 to 75 kNm. The compact combination of SAFOMI-IEC adapter, MAXXDRIVE®
industrial gear unit and a drive motor is the ideal choice for mixer and agitator applications and largely
eliminates the need for wear-prone and attached components.

MAXXDRIVE® industrial gear units have been a part of the NORD product range for more than ten years
and have since proven themselves in countless applications. They offer high output torques from 15 to 250 kNm and ensure smooth operation even under demanding operating conditions.

NORD will present the SAFOMI-IEC adapter and other solutions for the process industry at ACHEMA from
22 to 26 August. You will find the company in Hall 8.0 on stand D9.
