By combining AI-powered technology, integrated protection and future-ready connectivity, we are delivering a platform that not only meets the challenges of today's industry but provides a foundation for the innovations of tomorrow. This is just one of many exciting developments in our roadmap as we continue to push the boundaries of motor control technology." Kirsten King Managing Director, Motortronics Built for the Real World Unplanned downtime can have a significant impact on productivity, maintenance costs and operational performance. Whether operating a wastewater pumping station, conveyor system, compressor, fan or industrial process line, maintenance teams need fast access to meaningful diagnostic information. VMX-AGILITY PLUS provides detailed performance monitoring and stores up to 1,600 events, allowing engineers to quickly identify faults, analyse historical operating conditions and support predictive maintenance strategies. The intuitive OLED display delivers clear operational data and status information, helping users commission, monitor and troubleshoot systems with confidence. Future-Ready Connectivity Industrial automation is evolving rapidly, and connected devices are becoming an essential part of asset management strategies. To support this transition, Motortronics is continuing to enhance the VMX-AGILITY PLUS platform with the introduction of NFC connectivity planned for next year. This capability will enable faster access to device information, simplified configuration and enhanced service support, providing another step towards smarter, more connected motor control systems. By combining today's requirements with tomorrow's technologies, VMX-AGILITY PLUS provides investment protection for users seeking long-term value. Engineered by Motortronics Since pioneering digital electronic motor control technology, Motortronics has established a reputation for delivering reliable, application-focused solutions to customers around the world. With more than two million installations globally, the company continues to support industries that depend on reliable motor control, energy efficiency and operational resilience. VMX-AGILITY PLUS represents the latest evolution of that expertise, bringing together intelligent control, integrated protection, advanced diagnostics and future-ready connectivity in a single platform. VMX-SYNERGY PLUS Intelligent Energy Optimisation VMX-SYNERGY PLUS combines advanced soft starting with Motortronics' proprietary iERS (Intelligent Energy Recovery System) technology. By continuously optimising motor operating conditions, it helps reduce energy consumption in suitable fixedspeed applications while delivering comprehensive motor protection, diagnostics and communications. iERS continuously monitors the load in real time and intelligently adjusts the voltage and current supplied. The result is lower energy consumption whenever your motor is lightly loaded - without comprimising on performance. VMX-SYNERGY PLUS has a built-in real time kWH meter Beyond Soft Starting While VMX-AGILITY PLUS, VMX-SYNERGY PLUS and VMX S.A.F.E. PLUS are the latest additions to the Motortronics portfolio, they sit alongside a range of innovative motor control, protection and energy optimisation solutions designed to improve reliability, efficiency and safety. Past. Present. Future. One constant remains: Motortronics’ commitment to delivering intelligent motor control solutions that keep industry moving Motortronics UK first introduced digital electronic control of electric motors in 1979, helping to pioneer modern soft start technology VMX-S.A.F.E. PLUS Safer Access for Electricians Developed around the principle of Safer Access For Electricians, VMX S.A.F.E. PLUS helps improve safety during maintenance activities through integrated isolation and advanced motor protection.
