Comprehensive Electrical Motor Catalogue

We match motor type, power rating, and efficiency class to your specific operational duty to resist the dust, vibration, and moisture common in African mining plants. From our facility in Alrode, Alberton, we supply the following motor types to operations in Middelburg, Rustenburg, Kathu, and Phalaborwa:

Low Voltage (LV) Motors: Standard, dependable drives for pumps and conveyors, available in IE2 and IE3 efficiency classes.
High Voltage (HV) Motors: Massive power units up to 11 kV designed for large-scale crushers, mills, and compressors.
Slip Ring Motors: Engineered for high starting torque, these are ideal for protecting gearboxes during heavy load pick-ups in crushing circuits.
Explosion Proof Motors: Certified flameproof units for underground mines or hazardous areas containing gas or dust.
Energy Efficient Motors: IE3 and IE4 class motors that significantly reduce power consumption for fans and compressors with long duty cycles.
