Motor-mounted CFG Systems

Vagrant shaft currents in inverter-controlled AC motors can cause bearing and gearbox damage, which in turn can lead to increased noise and heat generation and ultimately force a costly shutdown. This is exactly what our patented Carbon Fiber Grounding (CFG) systems protect against. The carbon fiber shaft grounding systems reliably dissipate interference currents, protect against damage and increase the service life of the vehicle fleet. As an adaptable standard solution, our CFG systems on the engine side can be fixed to any engine plate with little effort. The center of rotation of the engine shaft serves as the mating surface.

You benefit from these advantages:

  • Patented systems for perfect grounding
  • Reliable protection against expensive damage and unplanned downtime
  • Resistant to strong vibrations
  • Easy assembly and disassembly
  • Customized design
  • Compact design
