Cement mill motor in economic 1-for-3 design
26 September 2022
MENZEL ELEKTROMOTOREN supports customers' economical spare parts management by configuring large industrial motors as common parts.

The German, family-run company has built a replacement motor for a cement plant in Pakistan that can drive any one of three applications: the raw mill, another cement mill or a fan.
The solution was a compact slip ring motor in frame size 710 with the cooling system tailored to fit around a steel girder in the cement plant. To accommodate the existing couplings in two different sizes, Menzel designed the replacement motor with two shaft ends with different diameters.
The machine has a rated output of 4600 kW and a rated voltage of 6300 V. It complies with protection class IP55. At the customer's request, it was designed in cooling type IC 666.
