Its own motors since 1983
An efficiency portfolio from IE3 to IE5+
Production in Italy, Poland and China

More than 1 million standalone electric motors leave NORD DRIVESYSTEMS’ production facilities worldwide every year. Originally planned as a product to complement the gear unit portfolio, NORD motors are now offered in standard and special versions to users in more than 100 industries.

Its own motors since 1983

NORD began producing its own motors in 1983; today, annual output exceeds the one-million mark. The drive technology solutions provider manufactures asynchronous motors from 0.12 kW to 55 kW and synchronous motors from 0.5 kW to 11 kW at three plants. Alongside standard motors, the company also offers customer-specific configurations, with a focus on flexibility and fast availability.

NORD motors are used in a wide range of applications: from energy-intensive motors running continuously in intralogistics to smooth motors with NXD tupH® surface treatment for washdown areas in the food industry. Explosion-protected versions compliant with ATEX, IECEx, CCCEx and HazLoc are also available for conveyor systems in dust or gas atmospheres.

An efficiency portfolio from IE3 to IE5+

Motors in efficiency classes IE3 to IE5 are among NORD’s most popular developments. According to the company, this “efficiency portfolio” meets all efficiency regulations in its international target markets. With its IE5+ permanent magnet synchronous motor, NORD even exceeds the efficiency required by the highest defined IE class. For users wishing to move to a higher efficiency class in existing installations, identical motor dimensions allow the change to be made without major mechanical modifications.

Production in Italy, Poland and China

NORD manufactures standard and special versions at its plants in Italy, Poland and China. It also has additional motor assembly facilities in North and South America, India and Australia, enabling short delivery times for national and international projects. Because products such as the asynchronous UNIVERSAL motor and the IE5+ synchronous motor comply with international standards and approvals, they can be integrated into systems and machines worldwide without significant design changes, making commissioning simpler and faster.
