Q-Drives presents innovative drive solutions at LogiMAT

Hall 1, Stand 1D01

Who we are !

Q-Drives is a drive and automation technology company and has been shaped by more than 3 decades of experience. Our vision is to build the best possible drive unit for users.

By this we mean giving the drive properties and functions that were previously unthinkable and creating real added value.

o Development, production & sales of drives (synchronous motors and controllers) and mechatronic solutions for drive tasks
o Extensive experience, active in the industry since 1990, since 2022 as Q-Drives
o Headquarter in Austria

What are we doing!

Q-Drives strives to provide the best technological and most economical solutions for low voltage drive and automation applications.

o Wheel hub drives

• Omnidirectional
• Differential

o Drives for stair or seat lifts
o lifting drives for vertical lifts
o Access systems for doors & gates
o Drives for Barriers
o Drives for shuttles
o Drives for sorter
o Dischargers
o Conveyor systems (motorized roller drives and drum motors)

What drives us!

Recognize specific customer requirements, not be satisfied with existing solutions, break new ground…

In short:
to build the best possible drive unit

"It was 1990 when I became passionate about drive technology and it fascinates me to this day. At a leading German manufacturer of drive technology, I earned my first spurs as a sales engineer and succeeded as head of sales."
Herwig Feuerstein, Founder & Inventor

Revolutionary ideas for unique drives for AGV, AGV, AMR and Shuttle or other applications cannot be stopped and that’s why I founded Q-Drives!

Total freedom in innovation and development and only responsible to my customers, that is our DNA.

You can take my word for it.

Sorter with direct drive
Supply: 48VDC
Power: 50 Watt
Speed: 350 – 1000 rpm
1… 3 m/s

What drives us!

Controller and sensor for drives

We develope motor-controller for external and internal usage and specific encoder/sensor-system for compact motor design and unique performance.

What drives us!

Motor technology

Different applications require different motor technologies.

In addition to highly efficient synchronous motors (BLDC) from our own development, we work together with selected partners who manufacture PMDC motors or AC motors according to our design and requirement standards

What drives us!

Gears

we use gears when the application cannot be optimally solved with the motor alone. The adjustment of process parameters such as rpm/speed and force/torque is then carried out by "suitable" gears.

Q-Drives takes care of the dimensioning and selection of the gears and integrates them into the drive and the finished mechatronic unit (or we develope suitable gear-solutions).

A total solution requires holistic view, for which we only use the best products.
