Amtech Drivesis offering its Eazy Series Variable Frequency Drive system to the North American market.

Designed to manage the electrical current for ultra high-speed motors and spindles, the Eazy system uses a proprietary PWM sinusoidal waveform. This PWM technology combines with 5th generation IGBT devices to create improved bearing and spindle life as well as production up-time, says the company.

“We call it Eazy because it makes the operators life easy with simple to use features and dependable, automatic performance. For its given markets, the Eazy Series is one of our best values,” says Dan Patel, CEO for Amtech Drives.

The Eazy system includes a 5th generation IGBT power inverter, a SVPWM control strategy, a power losses ride trough, a built-in energy meter, a slip compensation function, true overload and ground fault protection, and standard RS-485 modbus-RTU communications software, in addition to standard encoder built in.
