Technical Inquiry: Q&A

Question

"How do Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) mitigate structural fatigue in multi-carriage Mobile Racks operating in Lowell, MA?"

Grant Sterling Warehouse Safety & Risk Mitigation Manager

VFDs regulate the electromechanical actuators, providing highly calibrated acceleration and deceleration curves. This smooths the kinetic energy transfer during spatial displacement, eliminating abrupt torque spikes that cause metal fatigue, rail misalignment, and asynchronous carriage derailment.
