NORD Motors for a Wide Range of Applications

Do you want to reduce your system's energy consumption? Does your application require motors with high dynamics, power density, ruggedness, or chemical resistance? Our motor portfolio offers solutions for a wide range of application-specific requirements.

High-Efficiency Motors

Our IE4 and IE5+ synchronous motors achieve high efficiency when used with NORD variable frequency drives, even during partial-load operation. Their permanent magnets eliminate the need to use energy to generate a magnetic field.

Your Benefits

  • Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
    High efficiency across a wide load range helps reduce energy consumption while also reducing the number of motor variants required.
  • Our Efficiency Highlight: IE5+
    The motor exceeds the efficiency requirements of the highest energy efficiency class, IE5. It is also our most compact synchronous motor.
  • Ideal for Continuous Operation
    High efficiency and power density make synchronous motors ideal for energy-intensive applications, such as intralogistics.

Rugged and Versatile

Three-phase asynchronous motors are particularly resistant to electrical and mechanical overloads. They cover a wide range of applications, from machine tools to conveyor systems in the food industry.

Your Benefits

  • Easy to Maintain
    The robust construction and simple design make NORD asynchronous motors easy to maintain.
  • Featured Product: UNIVERSAL Motor
    The UNIVERSAL Motor has worldwide approvals and certifications, making it an attractive option for machines and systems sold globally, as well as for international projects.
  • Versatile
    The range of applications extends from simple to complex drive applications, including conveyor systems, machine tools, pumps, and fans.

Safe Operation in Hazardous Environments

Systems and components used in potentially explosive atmospheres must comply with the national explosion protection regulations of the country where they are operated. NORD offers motors that comply with major international standards, including ATEX, IECEx, and HazLoc.

Your Benefits

  • Models for Dust and Gas
    We offer asynchronous motors for dust atmospheres in Categories 2D or 3D (Zones 21 and 22), as well as gas atmospheres in Categories 2G or 3G (Zones 1 and 2).
  • Years of Experience
    We have extensive experience developing and manufacturing explosion-proof motors. We work closely with the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) and DEKRA EXAM in this area.
  • Extensive Industry Expertise
    Our explosion-proof motors are used in pumps, agitators, and lifting gear for applications such as grain mills, wastewater treatment plants, and pharmaceutical production.

Designed for Demanding Hygiene and Wash-Down Applications

For hygiene applications, we supply smooth-surface motors with rounded edges and no openings or fans. This helps minimize dirt buildup and simplifies cleaning.

Your Benefits

  • Quick and Easy Cleaning
    Our smooth-surface motors are easy to clean. They minimize areas where germs can accumulate and allow liquids to drain away, helping reduce cleaning time and downtime.
  • Featured Product: NXD tupH®
    Improve hygiene with our food-grade finish for aluminum surfaces. It provides resistance to corrosion caused by moisture and cleaning chemicals.
  • Ideal for Food-Contact Applications
    Hygiene-grade versions are used in conveying, mixing, and processing systems with regular cleaning cycles.
