SEW EURODRIVE

SEW-Eurodrive is a leading German manufacturer of drive technology, gear reducers, gear motors, frequency inverters and servo systems for industrial automation and process industries. With a catalog of 981 products, SEW-Eurodrive supplies complete drive solutions for conveyor systems, hoisting installations, mixing machines and production automation in the automotive, food and logistics sectors. SEW-Eurodrive operates globally with production facilities in 17 countries and sales offices in more than 50 countries, ensuring short delivery times and comprehensive technical support worldwide.

SEW-Eurodrive WF-series worm gear reducers are the most used products in the range. The WF30-series MT80N8 gear motors combine a worm gear reducer with a three-phase asynchronous motor in one compact assembly. Reduction ratios from 1:5 to 1:100, output powers from 0.09 kW to 22 kW, and flange-mounted or foot-mounted versions are available. All motors are constructed conforming to IEC/EN 60034 energy performance standards with availability in IE2 and IE3 efficiency classes for energy-efficient operation.

SEW-Eurodrive encoders for (E)DR servo motors are available as absolute multi-turn SSI/EnDat encoders or incremental TTL/SinCos encoders. The ES7C/EV7C encoder series are mounted as options on SEW MOVIMOT and MOVITRAC frequency inverters for precise speed control and torque regulation of drive motors. Hybrid connection cables integrate power cables and encoder cables in one prefabricated cable for simplified wiring of distributed drive systems and reduction of installation costs.

SEW-Eurodrive frequency inverters (MOVITRAC, MOVIMOT, MOVIDRIVE) provide speed and torque control for three-phase asynchronous motors and servo motors. MOVIMOT integrated drive units combine the frequency inverter with the motor in one motor-mounted assembly for decentralized drive architectures. MOVIDRIVE B servo controllers provide high-dynamic torque control for positioning and synchronization applications in printing, automotive and packaging industries.

SEW-Eurodrive gear motors are also available in hygienic versions for the food and pharmaceutical industries. Stainless steel housings (AISI 316L), smooth surfaces without accumulation zones and NSF H1-certified lubricants ensure compliance with FDA and EHEDG cleaning requirements. The DR-series hygienic gear motors conform to IP69K protection class for high-pressure cleaning with hot water and steam.

At Verkopershulp.nl you will find the complete SEW-Eurodrive range including gear reducers, gear motors, encoders, hybrid cables and drive accessories. Our technical experts support you in drive selection for your specific machine application, from torque calculation to interface selection and replacement of existing SEW installations.

History

SEW-Eurodrive was founded in 1931 by Ernst Blickle in Bruchsal, Germany, as a manufacturer of gear reducers for industrial drive applications. The company was a pioneer in developing standardized gear reducer sizes for simple interchangeability in industrial machines, enabling the manufacturing sector to use interchangeable drive components. In the 1950s, SEW introduced the integrated gear motor concept, combining motor and reducer in one unit. In the 1970s, SEW launched its first MOVITRAC frequency inverter, initiating the transition to electronic speed control for industrial motors. The 1980s and 1990s saw rapid international expansion of SEW's production network. Today SEW-Eurodrive employs more than 21,000 people with production facilities in 17 countries and sales offices in 50 countries worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which SEW-Eurodrive gear reducer suits my application?
For selecting an SEW-Eurodrive gear reducer you need the required output torque (Nm), reduction ratio, motor power and mounting position (floor, wall, ceiling). The WF-series worm reducers are suitable for simple applications with reductions up to 1:100; the R/F/K-series are industrial helical reducers for higher torques and higher efficiency. SEW's MOVITOOLS selection software helps with exact coupling sizing.
What is MOVIMOT and what advantages does it offer?
SEW-Eurodrive MOVIMOT is an integrated drive unit where the frequency inverter is mounted directly on the motor. MOVIMOT reduces wiring costs and required switchgear cabinet space compared to a centralized frequency inverter. Bus communication via PROFIBUS DP, DeviceNet or AS-Interface enables decentralized control of individual drives from the central PLC without additional signal cables.
Are SEW-Eurodrive encoders compatible with other frequency inverter brands?
SEW-Eurodrive encoders (ES7C/EV7C-series) use standard interfaces (TTL incremental, SinCos, SSI absolute, EnDat 2.2) that are compatible with frequency inverters from Siemens, ABB, Danfoss and other brands, provided the interface hardware matches. Use of SEW encoders on other drives requires checking the wiring diagrams. Our technical experts advise on interface compatibility.
What are hybrid cables for SEW-Eurodrive motors?
SEW-Eurodrive hybrid cables combine the motor power conductors and encoder signal conductors in one common cable sheath, making separate motor and encoder cables unnecessary. Hybrid cables reduce installation costs in distributed drive architectures (MOVIMOT, MOVIAXIS). They are available in lengths from 1.5 m to 150 m and are prefabricated with SEW-specific plug connections at both ends.
How do I configure an SEW-Eurodrive MOVITRAC frequency inverter?
SEW-Eurodrive MOVITRAC frequency inverters are configured via the local operating unit or via the MOVITOOLS MotionStudio software on a PC via USB or fieldbus. Parameters for motor data (voltage, current, frequency), control method (U/f, vector control), acceleration/deceleration times and safety functions (Safe Stop SS1/SS2) are set. SEW supplies parameter import files for standard motor configurations.
Are SEW-Eurodrive gear motors available with integrated electromagnetic brake?
Yes, SEW-Eurodrive gear motors are available with integrated spring-applied electromagnetic brakes for holding and stopping functions in hoisting and positioning applications. The brake is electromagnetically released when motor power is applied and automatically engages on power failure (fail-safe). Braking torques are available from 2 Nm to 1,500 Nm depending on motor size.
Does Verkopershulp.nl offer technical support for SEW-Eurodrive products?
Yes, Verkopershulp.nl has technical specialists who support you in selecting SEW-Eurodrive gear reducers, gear motors and frequency inverters for your drive application. We advise on torque sizing, motor type, interface selection and replacement equivalents for existing SEW-Eurodrive installations.
