About CG Drives & Automation / Emotron
Emotron is the brand of CG Drives & Automation AB based in Helsingborg (Sweden) and part of the CG Group. The company develops and manufactures frequency converters (VFDs), softstarters, shaft power monitors and modular converter solutions for electrical drives and power conversion. Typical applications include pumps, fans, compressors, conveyor systems, cranes and lifts as well as grid feed-in in power generation. In addition, custom-designed control cabinets, complete project solutions and product adaptations are offered. The portfolio of services also includes commissioning, maintenance, workshop repairs, field service, spare parts, rental equipment, remote access, extended warranty (3/5 years), 24/7 support, application diagnostics as well as product and application training with simulations. Industries served include water/wastewater, power generation (including wind power, waste incineration, hydrogen), marine/shipping, material handling, mining, chemicals/oil & gas as well as the wood and food industries. Training centres are located in Helsingborg (SE), Wernigerode (DE), Bladel (NL) and Mandideep (IN).

Products & Technologies
Frequency converters (VFDs)
Energy-efficient control of pumps, fans, compressors and conveyor systems, including IP54 and IP20/21, up to 4 MW.
Softstarters
Smooth motor starts, e.g. for saws, mills and trimmers in the wood industry, with braking functions.
Shaft Power Monitor
Monitoring of shaft power for load monitoring without external sensors.
Modular converter solutions
For green-energy applications such as grid feed-in in waste incineration and hydrogen production with low grid feedback.
Active Front End technology
Reduces harmonics and enables energy regeneration, e.g. in marine and marine hoist drives.
Direct Torque Control
Handles abrupt load changes in cranes and presses and reduces mechanical stress.
