High system availability in intralogistics
The market for intralogistics is constantly changing and subject to growing requirements these days. Conveyor belts, systems, and high-bay warehouses are key elements of logistics. Fast delivery times, increasing delivery quantities, or return rates: All of these require flexible processes and efficient transport systems with maximum system availability.
Challenges
Systems must operate safely and efficiently
The systems in intralogistics are mainly operated by three-phase asynchronous motors. To design the movement sequences to be as efficient, safe, and flexible as possible, simple solutions are more important than ever.
There are several challenges that need to be overcome:
- Overload: Motors can be overloaded, which can cause damage.
- Emergency stop: In an emergency, the motor must be switched off safely.
- Thermal load: Heavy loads can cause the motor to overheat.
- Space requirements: Motor control devices often take up a lot of space in the control cabinet.
- Installation complexity: Installation and startup can be time-consuming and complicated.

Summary
Efficient, simple, and safe operation of three-phase asynchronous motors
The CONTACTRON Speed Starter protects motors in the event of overloads caused by a shutdown in accordance with the load curve. It enables safe shutdown in the event of an emergency via the Safe Torque Off (STO) function, without the need for additional contactors. The integrated thermal storage system ensures that the motor is shut down more quickly under high loads in order to prevent overheating. With its compact design, the speed starter requires very little space in the control cabinet. In addition, easy wiring and the intuitive operating concept make installation and startup much easier.
