Intelligent drive solutions for the connected factory

From May 26 to 28, 2026, SPS Italia - Smart Production Solutions in Parma returned as a key reference event for industrial automation. In this context, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS showcased advanced drive technologies designed for increasingly interconnected, flexible, and sustainability-oriented production environments.

At the core of the portfolio is a comprehensive range of frequency inverters for both centralised and decentralised architectures, including the NORDAC PRO, NORDAC ON, NORDAC FLEX, and NORDAC LINK series. These modular and scalable solutions, featuring support for major industrial Ethernet protocols as well as integrated PLC and positioning functions, help reduce system complexity while increasing operational efficiency.

Among the highlights was the NXD tupH surface treatment, engineered to ensure maximum resistance to corrosion, aggressive chemicals, and intensive washdowns. It is ideally suited for industries such as food and beverage, packaging, and pharmaceuticals, enhancing reliability and operational uptime.

Energy efficiency remains a key focus for NORD, with high-performance motors and the NORD ECO service supporting companies in reducing energy consumption and total cost of ownership.

The portfolio is completed by digital solutions such as NORD DRIVE MONITOR, enabling data analysis and predictive maintenance strategies.

At SPS Italia 2026, NORD offered a hands-on experience with live demonstrations, real application scenarios, and direct technical discussions, supporting the transition towards more efficient and connected manufacturing.
