1.1 The SEW-EURODRIVE Group of Companies

Global presence Since it introduced the world's first gearmotor 75 years ago, SEW-EURODRIVE has

grown to become the global leader in electromechanical and electronic solutions for

power transmission and motion control. SEW-EURODRIVE does business in more than

144 countries, providing the most advanced and reliable drive solutions to hundreds of

industries: automotive, food and beverage processing, packaging, building materials,

water and wastewater treatment, logistics and transportation, entertainment and many

more. Whether it involves moving people, raw materials or finished goods, SEW-EURO-

DRIVE solutions drive the world.

Always the right

drive

The modular concept behind our global approach to product design enables SEW-

EURODRIVE to offer customers literally millions of ways to combine our components to

create truly custom solutions. That means each SEW-EURODRIVE solution can be fine-

ly tuned for the speed and torque range, available space and ambient conditions of each

customer's unique application. This ability to customize solutions makes SEW-EURO-

DRIVE an ideal partner for OEMs trying to increase the performance of their machines

to meet customer demand for increased quality and throughput.

Our global product line assures that components are the same no matter where in the

world our drive solutions are assembled or used. This is an important benefit for indus-

trial customers with global operations, allowing them to standardize on the best in drive

technology at their facilities anywhere in the world. With 11 manufacturing plants and 58

assembly plants in 44 countries, SEW-EURODRIVE products and technical support are

immediately available to customers worldwide.

SEW-EURODRIVE gearmotors are electronically powered by MOVITRAC

frequency

inverters, MOVIDRIVE

drives and MOVIAXIS

multi-axis servo drives, a combination

that blends perfectly with existing SEW-EURODRIVE systems. As with SEW-EURO-

DRIVE mechanical systems, our drive electronics assure a complete SEW-EURO-

DRIVE solution to deliver the maximum in functionality and flexibility.

Servo drive system products, such as low backlash servo gear units, compact servomo-

tors or MOVIAXIS

multi-axis servo drives deliver exacting precision and dynamics.

From a simple single-axis application to complex synchronized process sequences, you

can be confident SEW-EURODRIVE will deliver the optimum solution.

For economical, decentralized systems, SEW-EURODRIVE offers MOVIMOT

, the

gearmotor with an integrated frequency inverter, or MOVI-SWITCH

, with its integrated

switching and protective functions. SEW-EURODRIVE hybrid cables assure cost-effec-

tive installation no matter the size of the system. And in the latest product advances, we

have introduced MOVITRANS

, a contactless energy transfer system, MOVIPRO

de-

centralized drive control and MOVIFIT

decentralized intelligence.

SEW-EURODRIVE also sets the global standard for power, quality and reliability with its

industrial gear units for large loads. These large gear units are based on the same mod-

ular design concept to provide optimum adaptability for a wide range of applications.

Your ideal partner With its global presence, broad product range and expert technical services, SEW-

EURODRIVE is the ideal partner for your next equipment design project, no matter your
