Motor Generator Set Technology - IMS
Motor Generator Set Technology
In many existing rolling mill facilities, Motor-Generator (MG) sets remain a viable variable speed drive subsystem. IMS is an expert in the modernization of these legacy drive systems using modern solid-state digital motor and generator field excitation and PLC control.
The PLC is the heart of the MG drive control implementation. This includes the software implementation of:
- Motor Speed Control
- Motor Torque Control
- Motor Armature Current Control
- Motor CEMF Control for Extended Speed Range Operation
- Fault Monitoring of all Key Operating Parameters
IMS has implemented a variety of motor and generator configurations:
- Single Generator/Motor
- Multiple Parallel Generators and Motors
- Rolling Mill Common Bus Systems
A digital upgrade to a legacy mg set drive subsystem provides the following benefits:
- Improved Control Accuracy
- Improved Dynamic Performance
- Enhanced Protection and Troubleshooting
- Digital Network Interface to New or Existing Supervisory Control Systems.
