NORD smooth motors Ideal for the food and beverage industry

July 11, 2019

From its own production, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS offers ventilated and unventilated motors with smooth surfaces for areas with high hygiene standards. Their washdown-optimized cast aluminum housings make them easy to clean.

The smooth surface motors from NORD are available in sizes BG 80, 90 and 100. They are based on the NORD modular construction system and therefore offer maximum flexibility for versatile application areas. The motors are provided with protection class IP66 and they are compatible with every gear unit type. In addition, the use of energy-saving three-phase motors ensures high efficiency with low operating costs.

Optionally, the smooth surface motors are available with the nsd tupH surface treatment, which is a special process making the aluminum surface corrosion-resistant and particularly hard, similar to the qualities of stainless steel. In contrast to protective painting or coating, nothing can detach or flake off.
