Motors & Gearboxes

Efficiency and Reliability for the Food and Beverage Industry

The manufacture of WEG electric motors started with the combined skills of an electrician, an administrator and a mechanic, which resulted in the production of the first WEG electric motor. Since then, that is what guides us to produce more efficient machines, designed with the most advanced technologies. All that because, regardless of the market segment, WEG keeps dedicated research and innovation initiatives to produce highly efficient electric motors, which guarantee the production reliability for your industry.

WEG offers various solutions with electric motors and gearboxes, such as permanent magnet motors, antimicrobiotic and corrosion resistant painting, and new technologies for Industry 4.0, such as WEG Motor Scan. These are products specifically designed for any application in the Food and Beverage Industry.

Ventilation, Exhaust and Pumping Systems

These systems incorporate several WEG solutions, such as motors for ventilation in poultry farms and for silos. Additionaly, WEG offers the WECM (WEG Electric Commutated Motor), which is designed for freezing tunnels, condensers and evaporators; the W12 which can be used with gearboxes, pumps and fans, while the W22 line offers all of its versatility and efficiency. Developed for large exhaust and pumping systems, the W60 motors offer high levels of energy efficiency, ideal for high speed applications.

Washdown Application Environments

Applications requiring continuous washdown process (handling animal protein, such as: pork, beef, lamb and poultry) demand safe equipment. WEG offers solutions like the Encapsulated Washdown Motors Hydroduty and Picker Plus, and General Purpose Washdown Motors Hydrowash, Shark and W22 Wash, which features NobaC®, exclusive WEG paiting with antimicrobial properties.

Preparación y Procesamiento

WEG proyecta equipos destinados a la preparación y procesamiento de alimentos industrializados. Incluidos en este portafolio están los motores eléctricos dedicados y los reductores.

Sistemas de Compresión y Refrigeración

Aplicaciones como compresores de amoníaco, extractores de aceite, máquinas centrífugas, agitadores y ambientes de gas inflamable exigen productos dedicados y confiables.

WEG también ofrece la línea W60, con diseño compacto y flujo de aire optimizado, para aplicaciones en bombas, ventiladores, compresores, prensas, calandras y máquinas emulsificantes. El destaque es el W22, línea Cooling Tower, usada en torres de refrigeración.

Manejo de Materiales

Los reductores, como el WG20, Magmax y GSA y el nuevo W12, son adecuados para aplicaciones como máquinas de laminación, agitadores, grúas, ascensores, picadores y correas transportadoras. Algunas aplicaciones pueden recibir una pintura especial antimicrobiana, resistente a la corrosión, que es importante para la industria de Alimentos y Bebidas.

Ambientes de Área Classificada

Estes motores elétricos atendem às necessidades das áreas classificadas pois são fabricados conforme normas industriais vigentes, tanto nos padrões NEMA como para IEC. Os equipamentos possuem certificação dos principais organismos de certificação de produtos (OCP) mundiais, além de contar com altos padrões de segurança, essenciais para as Zonas 1 e 2. Possuem construção robusta e representam o que há de mais moderno para o acionamento de equipamentos com a presença de atmosferas explosivas na forma de gás ou vapor.
