Welcome to ROK Talk on Drives, the podcast that gives you the latest updates for the Rockwell Automation drives business. Hosted by Sr. Product Specialist, Jim Finiak and Power Control Lead, Neal Corbett, ROK Talk will focus on drives topics that include both medium and low voltage VFDs, as well as servo drives. This podcast will help inform you on how drives play a role in moving customers forward to the future of manufacturing. Tune in for all the information you never knew you needed about drives.
In ROK Talk on Drives, Episode 5, join Jim and Neal for a deep dive into a subject near and dear to Jim’s heart—TotalFORCE Technology. TotalFORCE is the common control technology across the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 755T LV drives and PowerFlex 6000T MV drives. Special guests include Sayantani Ganguly with Medium Voltage Drives and Adam Davis with Low Voltage Drives.
In ROK Talk on Drives, Episode 4, Mark Ossanna and Elizabeth Allen of Rockwell Automation MCCs, join our hosts Jim Finiak and Neal Corbett to discuss packaging AC drives in low voltage motor control centers.
In ROK Talk on Drives, Episode 3, you can learn about the differences and similarities of variable frequency drives and servo drives. We talk to Mike Harris from our drives team and Michelle Holt from our Motion team and they will go head to head on which drive is best for your application. We can then help you solve the mystery of which drive you should use over the other.
In ROK Talk on Drives, Episode 2, we talk about how to select the right medium voltage drive for your application. Fred Jason teaches us when you need to consider a medium voltage drive vs a low voltage drive. Medium Voltage is preferred when higher power motors are used and when branch circuit power cabling distances are longer.
In ROK Talk on Drives, Episode 1, we talk about the difference between a drive and a soft starter. Bill Martin, host of ROKTalk on Industrial Components, helps explain the difference. Jim and Neal will chime in too. Drives and soft starters are found in so many different applications and industries. They both can control motors but what are the key differences between them that everyone should know about?
In ROK Talk on Drives, topics will be focused on Drives and include both medium and low voltage VFDs, as well as servo drives. Topics could cover areas of packaging and applications for drives. Tune in for all the information you never knew you needed about drives.
