Cone and gyratory crushers are the heaviest-duty machines in mining and aggregate plants. At the heart of these crushers is the eccentric shaft that produces the crushing motion, a... More Details

1.5 kW and 2.2 kW are the most sought-after small power values in the IE3 efficiency class. A wide range of applications — from small pumps to fans, from conveyor drives to machine... More Details

At the heart of every asynchronous motor lies a component that is often overlooked yet underpins all torque production: the rotor cage and the rotor end ring at each of its two end... More Details

The 7.5 kW and 11 kW power classes form the most frequently supplied mid-range band of industrial electric motors in production facilities. From pumping stations to fan and blower ... More Details

Pump and fan motors operating outdoors, atop water tanks, on irrigation lines or on cooling towers face far harsher electrical threats than those inside an enclosed facility. Forem... More Details

One of the most common and most expensive mistakes in industrial facilities is selecting an electric motor larger than necessary, "just in case." The belief that "a bigger motor is... More Details

Plastic recycling and pellet (granulate) production plants depend on electric motors that run continuously under heavy load. From taking raw material out of bales and shredding it,... More Details

Cold-climate conditions are one of the most underestimated challenges for an electric motor. While factors such as high temperature and dust are discussed frequently, the burdens t... More Details

The quiet, vibration-free and long-lasting operation of an electric motor often depends on a detail invisible to the eye: shrink-fitting the stator core into the frame. In cast iro... More Details

Coal crushers, hammer mills and pulverizer mills sit at the very heart of a power plant or cement facility, and the electric motor driving them determines the efficiency of the ent... More Details

Selecting the right motor for the smallest drive points in a plant often demands more attention than high-power applications. Machines in the IE3 micro-power motor class at 0.18 an... More Details

Direct online starting of large asynchronous motors draws an inrush current of 6-8 times the rated current from the grid. This high current causes voltage dips on the grid, fuse tr... More Details

2.2 kW and 3 kW are among the most commonly used electric motor ratings in industry. A wide range of applications, from small pumps to conveyors, from fans to machine tools, operat... More Details

Sewage lift stations sit at the heart of wastewater networks and are facilities whose downtime is simply unacceptable. To pump domestic and industrial wastewater from a wet-well to... More Details

The efficiency class printed on a motor nameplate tells only half the story of how much energy that motor will actually save in the field. The other half depends on how the shaft p... More Details

Pasta production is a continuous process consisting of many interconnected mechanical steps, from processing the raw material to packaging. Dough mixers, extruder presses, drying f... More Details

One of the most common technical obstacles in export-oriented motor supply is that frame and connection standards differ from country to country. While Europe and many countries us... More Details

In industry, small powers carry critical tasks just as much as large ones. Conveyor drives on automation lines, small pumps, dosing systems, fans and geared drives often run on a m... More Details

In very dusty environments such as cement, mining, lime, coal and recycling plants, the weakest point of an electric motor is often the cooling system. The fan and fan cowl at the ... More Details

In a crushing-screening plant, material continues to be reduced in size at the secondary and tertiary stages after passing through the primary jaw crusher. The most widely used equ... More Details
