Modern logistics and material-handling systems are operating under tighter constraints—higher throughput requirements, more frequent changeovers, harsher operating environments, and limited maintenance resources. At the same time, many conveyor systems still use centralized drive architectures that were designed for simpler operating conditions.
This session looks at how distributed drive architectures are being applied in conveyor design and what changes at the system level. Using real logistics and material-handling examples, we’ll examine how teams are reducing installation, control architecture, mechanical layout, and maintenance practices, with a focus on how performance and uptime are affected in practice.
Join us as we review implementation considerations for systems using drives such as the Altivar ATV350, including installation approach, network configuration, and suitability for high-throughput industrial environments.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the system-level benefits of distributed drive architectures
- Explore real-world material-handling and logistics applications
- Learn key implementation considerations for the Altivar ATV350 and similar drive solutions
