Product philosophy – The new modular motor system:
One single series for millions of drive combinations

Configuring gearmotors with AC motors from SEW-EURODRIVE has never been easier: A modular system comprising a single series of the new DR motors offers all efficiency levels, including energy efficient motors.

As the first manufacturer worldwide, SEW-EURODRIVE succeeded in 2002 in using die-cast copper technology in an industrial high-volume production process for the manufacturing of our energy efficient motors. Another novelty in the new modular system is the option to choose between three different brake sizes, depending on the motor size, and cost-optimized encoders built into the motor.

All motor optimizations and designs of the new DR series are available for all efficiency classes. They comply with all worldwide standards and already fulfill the forthcoming IEC standard. For planners and users, they offer a number of unique benefits.

Overview of benefits Very simple configuration and ordering All motor variants are configured from just one series Even more options, even fewer restrictions Saves space and costs due to compact design Future-proof, also from an environmental point of view (regulations) Reduced prices for energy efficient motors due to integration Reduced prices due to selection of different brake sizes
