Goss is ceasing supporting SLT drives, developing a new replacement drive for its M-600 customers following the call from ABB, the original supplier of the power converters which has declared the drives obsolete.

The new drive comes with new components, and Goss calls a straight ‘plug and play’ replacement to the original drives, with no other changes to the control system being required.

Goss is currently in the process of merging with former rival manroland.
