Electronic drives at packaging machines until 2016

Electronic drives at packaging machines until 2016

To the Interpack 2014 the Quest Trend Magazine publishes how the use of electronic drives at packaging machines will develop until 2016 according to a market survey from Quest TechnoMarketing.

The growth expectations of the packaging machine-builders indicate a plus of 9% per year until 2016. This value lies clearly about the average expectancy in the German machinery industry of 2.7% - according to the market survey of the Quest study.

The growth expectations add up for four years from 2013 to 2016 to a plus of 42%. So dynamically will also grow the number of electronic drive components at packaging machines, i.e. by 41%.

Verpackungsmaschinen gehören zu den antriebsintensivsten Branchen des Maschinenbaus. Sie stehen an zweiter Stelle in der Rangfolge der zehn untersuchten Branchen des deutschen Maschinenbaus. 16% der elektronischen Antriebstechnik in diesen zehn Branchen werden bis 2016 allein an Verpackungsmaschinen eingesetzt werden.

The focal point of this dynamic development is the servo drive, the king discipline of the drive technology.

In the ranking of the ten servo-intensive sectors packaging machines impose the second rank. 17% of all servo-drives will be implemented at packaging machines until 2016. So the number of servo-drives at packaging machines will increase by 58% until 2016. This value ranges noticeably over the increase of the number of electronic drive components at packaging machines by 41%. So packaging machine-builders will force the use of servo drives in the future both at new machines and via the substitution of other drive systems at the machines.

Beim Servoeinsatz vertrauen die Verpackungsmaschinenbauer auf den klassischen Servo für Positionieraufgaben. Dann folgen Servos mit Technologiefunktionen für high-end Anwendungen. Selten setzen Verpackungsmaschinenbauer Servos mit integrierter SPS ein.

Using servo drives the packaging machine-builders feel confident of the classical servo drive for positioning tasks. Afterwards servo drives with technology functions follow for high-end applications. Packaging machine-builders rarely use servo drives with integrated PLC.

Right behind the servo drive servo-similar converters are on the agenda of the packaging machine-builders. We call servo-similar converters as frequency converters with field-oriented closed-loop control at asynchronous or permanent-field synchronous motors. Also for this drive technology packaging machines are in second place in the related ranking of the ten sectors. 19% of all servo-similar converters in the ten sectors will alone be implemented at packaging machines 2016.

The use of servo-similar converters by packaging machine-builders will grow only below average with 28% until 2016. So the servo-drive will remain first choice.

The article is based on the market survey from Quest TechnoMarketing about the use of servo drives in the German machinery industry until 2016. For this purpose 28% of the machine-builders in ten sectors with 100 and more employees were interviewed. The link to the table of content of this study is http://www.qtm.de/en/headlines.html.

Latest Feedback of the German Machinery Industry on Industry 4.0 - New Report in …
Along the market survey from Quest TechnoMarketing about the engineering of the machine automation until 2017 the machine-builders also assessed “what Industry 4.0 is supposed to mean for the engineering of the machine until 2017”. 80% of the investigated machine-builders in the ten sectors of the German machinery industry provided their feedback to this question. The following numbers refer to these machine-builders. The open question without further specifications invited to a
Electric linear actuators have been growing for 10 years
Bochum, July 14, 2010. During the last 10 years from 2001 to 2010 the use of electric linear actuators in the German machinery industry has increased fivefold. So the portion of the machine-builders using electric linear actuators at the machines increased from 3,5% to 19%. Linear actuators produce a straight-line resp. translational motion. So e.g. the hot glue nozzle of a packaging machine can be guided straight-lined across a paper
RFID - constantly and throughout the machinery industry implemented
Bochum, July 5, 2010. This year 14% of the machine-builders intend to implement RFID at the machines. RFID stands for radio frequency identification and provides the wireless identification of goods, semi-manufactures or workpieces in the industrial sector. Last year 15% of the machine-builders wanted to implement RFID at the machines. So RFID shows a constant implementation during the last two years. This implementation is taking place with all or almost all of
Intensified interest in application-optimised I/O modules
Bochum, June 15, 2010. The machine-builders are intensified interested in application-optimised I/O modules this year. This confirms the trend to fine-tuning the control and drive technologies that determines the changes in the automation technology this year. With 11% each tenth machine-builders intend to change to application-optimised I/O modules this year. That is an increase in relation to the previous year by more than one third as this value was 8%. What application-optimised
Panel PC benefits from the current trend to fine-tuning the control technology
Bochum, 7th June 2010. Machine-builders prefer fine-tuning the control technology this year.

Bochum, May 25, 2010. The Quest Trend Magazine has recently published the first part of a three-part series of articles to the topic „automation, supplier structure, economic crisis“. It concerns the connection between automation technology, its suppliers and the economic crisis. By now two main trends in the automation technology have been appearing. The first main trend of the automation substituted the electro-mechanics by microelectronics. The second main trend consists of
