Decentralized Family_1200x628

Decentralized Drive Solutions

The decentralized product family is a grouping of distributed drive and automation solutions engineered to simplify installation, reduce energy consumption, and maximize system uptime across high-throughput baggage handling and logistics environments.

  • MOVIGEAR® combines motor, gear unit, and electronics in one efficient housing for energy-saving, fast conveyor setup.
  • MOVIMOT® Performance / MOVIMOT® Advanced integrates a gearmotor and inverter to reduce wiring, save space, and deliver flexible torque control.
  • MOVIPRO® Technology provides decentralized motion and control for positioning, coordination, and zone management.

Combined, these technologies streamline commissioning, reduce wiring by as much as 80%, and support modular, scalable system designs, perfect for building or modernizing baggage handling, material handling, and parcel logistics systems across today’s demanding airport facilities.


MOVILINK DDI_DR2C_1200x628

MOVILINK DDI® Single Cable Technology 

Gearmotors with MOVILINK® DDI single cable technology use a true digital motor-interface, transmitting power, data, and diagnostics over one single cable, unlike analog feedback systems. This enables simplified plug-and-play setup, automatic drive/motor pairing, richer condition data, and faster commissioning, making it ideal for high-throughput logistics automation and conveyor systems.
