Headquartered in Bargteheide (Germany), Nord has been developing, manufacturing and distributing drive technology since 1965. The company employs around 2,500 people worldwide, in more than 60 locations. The technical sophistication of both the mechanical and the electronic components has earned Nord a leading position in the drive industry worldwide. Gross sales totalled 315 million Euros in 2007.
Nord's helical inline, helical parallel-shaft, helical-bevel, worm, and planetary gear units, with friction disc or V-belt speed variation, deliver torques from 10 to 200,000 Nm. Nord motors with outputs from 0.12 to 200 kW range from IEC standard types to highly dynamic synchronous servo motors. Frequency inverters and digital servo controllers complement the portfolio. Nord also supplies compact units integrating mechanical drive components and power electronics, like geared motors with motor-mounted frequency inverters.
