KEBA KeDrive D3 Smart DC Systems

Energy management for your machine

The energy transition and rising energy costs require

sustainable and efficient solutions for machines and

factories. Electric drives account for 70 % of the energy

demand in factory automation. A considerable potential

for saving operating and installation costs.

Are you looking for a partner who will work with you to develop

and implement economical and environmentally conscious

drive solutions? What drives you as a machine builder or plant

operator and what are your challenges?

Use the KEBA expertise from research and application as

well as the KeDrive D3 drive platform with active power

supply and energy storage systems for your energy-efficient

machine or plant.

• Controlled DC link voltage for uniform international

drive sizing

• Independence from worldwide mains voltages

• Optimized energy storage in the DC link

• Reduction of mains distortion (THD) and reactive power

caused by passive rectification

• Savings in grid connection costs by limiting peak power

consumption from the mains

• Controlled energy storage for dynamic applications

Active power supply units

• Energy recovery of regenerative energy into the AC grid

• Controlled DC link voltage for best drive utilization and mains independence

• Limitation of the mains input power

• Reduced mains current distortion (THD) due to sinusoidal mains currents

Controlled energy storage systems

• Temporary storage for regenerative energy

• Peak power reduction through "peak shaving"

• Bridging of mains failures (short time UPS for DC link)

Modular drive system

• Optimal integration into the KeDrive D3 drive system

• Energy efficiency due to energy exchange in the DC link

• Capacity expansion for storing short-term regenerative peaks

• Different cooling concepts
