Content and objectives

In the GEMÜ product training course "Electric motor drives", we provide you with practical basic knowledge on the design, function and application of modern electric drive systems. You will learn how the different drive types work, how they are controlled and which safety functions are crucial in an industrial environment. The content of the training course is designed to enable you to use this technology safely, efficiently and automatically in your day-to-day work - tailored to your technical requirements. For the best understanding, we recommend prior training on the relevant valve types.

Fundamentals of electric motor drives

Functional principle

You will gain a clear understanding of the interaction between electric motor, gearbox, controller and feedback. We teach you how different drive types work and what role they play in automated process chains.


Product advantages

We will show you how electric motorised drives help to make processes more efficient, precise and safe - especially in systems with a high degree of automation.

Design and components of electric motor drives

Detailed analysis of the drive structure

You will learn about the central components of modern drives: from the electric motor and gear stages to sensors, limit switches and signal processing. You will also learn how different types of control (e.g. digital or analogue) influence operation.


Use and safety functions

In the training course, we cover safety functions such as emergency shutdowns, position feedback or overload protection and show in which processes they are absolutely essential.


Special variants & system integration

You will receive an overview of special solutions for special requirements - for example for high protection classes, potentially explosive areas or communication protocols such as Profibus or IO-Link).

Applications and areas of use

Industry-specific use cases

Electric motor drives are used in almost all branches of industry - from the chemical industry to food technology and water treatment. We show you typical application examples and explain which requirements are in focus.


Technical selection criteria and interfaces

You will learn which parameters are decisive in the selection process: such as control type, ambient temperature, protection class, cleanability or connection to control systems. We also provide you with information on industry-specific standards and interface requirements.

Make confident decisions with knowledge – Why your participation is worthwhile
