These capabilities are available on a common platform that functions as a servo-drive or frequency converter, thus lowering the overall cost of integration and deployment for the machine builder while providing the latest safe motion technology to the end-user. The IndraDrive with Safety-On-Board is said to have reaction times up to 400 times faster than conventional solutions that use contactors to produce a safe stop.
