NEW MOOG SPEED CONTROLLED PUMP SYSTEM CUTS ENERGY USE IN HYDRAULIC PLASTICS MACHINES

Moog Speed Controlled Pump System. (Photo Moog, MGPR1008)BÖBLINGEN, 4 November 2010 – Moog has unveiled a new pump system at K-2010 that will provide injection molding and blow molding machine builders with a motion control solution that can lower energy consumption in hydraulic machines by 30 percent or more when compared to traditional approaches and ultimately reduce the total cost of ownership. Moog, a specialist in high performance motion control for machine builders in a variety of industrial applications, is now offering a complete integrated system called the Moog Speed Controlled Pump System that is based on three of Moog’s proven products. The system includes a fixed displacement Radial Piston Pump (RKP), a Maximum Dynamic Brushless Servo Motor and a Modular Multi-axis Programmable Motion Control Servodrive (MSD). The unique functionality of this system is the ability to allow users to change the speed of the motor and pump thereby controlling the fluid flow. The resulting machine is more energy efficient and this new system also provides optimized system performance and easier setup for operators.
