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%.

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or efficiency:
“This was Pharaoh, direct descendent of our deity Amon, god of the sun, who rules the heavens as Pharaoh rules the earth. Again, he brought treasure, gold, and precious jewels taken from our enemies. For to Pharaoh riches were power and power was to be desired. And also again he brought many captives. For is it not by slaves that one becomes even richer and then has even more power?”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
