Mining  -  Variable Speed Drives (VSDs)

The two primary reasons for installing variable speed drives are process control, and energy / maintenance efficiencies.  With our latest products, motor powers up to 1MW (at 380V to 3,300V) are now readily available for the mining industry.

Whatever the application, operating environment or control system you require for the drive, either as a part or as a complete scheme, BALDWIN & FRANCIS Ltd. offer both the technology and expertise to assist your company acheive its potential.

Benefits of Variable Speed Drives

Full control of torque from zero to full speed

Continuously equates drive speed to operating demands

Employs existing  a.c. motors and mechanical systems

Increases component life cycle time

Reduction in maintenance costs

Reduced electrical network costs

Reduced energy costs

Voltage Sourced system.
