Drum Motor - Power Efficiency

Power Efficiency

Test results showed drum motors used 32% less energy (unloaded) and 47% less energy (loaded) than a comparable geared motor drive thus helping to reduce the global carbon footprint. Drum motors have fewer frictional losses and a higher efficiency than conventional drives use in material handling industry, which normally transfer approximately 75% of their mechanical efficiency to the belt, compared to the Drum Motor which transfers up to 97%.
