E-Drive product line

Electric drive technology with maximum efficiency

Future-proof alternative 

The new JACOB's E-Drive series combines maximum energy efficiency with modern electric drive technology – the sustainable alternative to pneumatic solutions. With this expansion of our standardised product portfolio, we offer 500 additional high-performance solutions in our range of throttle valves and 2-way distributors. Our new E-Drive series impresses with fast changeover times, high drive power and tool-free setup – maximum flexibility with minimal effort.

Two-way valves

Ideal for use in the gravitational conveyance of free-flowing bulk materials and in ventilation systems.

Pipe slide gates

For use in the gravitational conveyance of granular bulk materials to open or close the material flow as required.

Throttle valves

Ideal for regulating and shutting off air flows in ventilation systems and bulk materials during the gravity conveying of free-flowing materials.

2-way distributors

Perfect for the targeted deflection and distribution of free-flowing bulk materials in gravity conveying systems and low-pressure conveying.

More efficiency. More flexibility. More possibilities.

 

The advantages of our E-Drive product line:

  • Maximum energy efficiency 
  • Environmentally friendly and cost-reducing 
  • Fast changeover times with high drive power 
  • Fully electric operation 
  • Intuitive, flexible tool-free end position adjustment 
  • 500 standardized products

Sustainability that pays off

Sustainability that pays off

By using an electric drive instead of a pneumatic drive, I save about 40 kg of CO₂ per year. This corresponds to the amount of CO₂ produced during the production of around 30 kg of paper. 

More power, less consumption

The diagram shows the development of total costs (in €) for a pneumatic and an electric drive depending on mileage (switching). It illustrates that while the pneumatic drive is cheaper to purchase, it becomes more expensive to operate due to factors such as higher energy consumption or maintenance. The electric drive is more expensive to purchase but remains more cost-effective over time.
