This OEM is a leading manufacturer of metering pumps, flow meters and water treatment accessories. Groschopp has been supplying motors to the company for its pumps for many years and Groschopp motors are used in all the new designs. The company has been moving to more value added designs and needed a motor for a peristaltic pump to treat drinking water with chlorine in water treatment pl... (read more)
Groschopp Inc.'s Fast Track™ department quickly builds motors/gearmotors to meet our customer's quick turn-around demands. Because Groschopp stocks components rather than finished motors/gearmotors, we can easily make modifications to the motor/gearmotor to meet your expectations, all in 48 hours or less
Modifications Include:
- Various bolt hole patterns...
Long life and low maintenance were what a quality-conscious provider of insulation products needed in a gearmotor to power a commercial grade insulation blower. Dust and other environmental contaminants were highly likely to get into the motor and could potentially cause premature motor failure. An AC gearmotor was the best choice. (read more)
A manufactuerer of solar collection systems was having problems with corroding gearmotors. Groschopp stepped in and proposed a new, ingress protected gearmotor (read more)
The Permanent Magnet DC (PMDC) is a good fit for applications that require a high starting toque to reliably lift heavy loads. In intermittent applications, even with a PMDC's brush design, the motor can be expected to have a 2000+ hour life. Through proprietary design techniques, Groschopp PMDC motor designs have been customized for extremely quiet operation. (read more)
"Groschopp has taken a typical AC motor made by hundreds of motor manufacturers and perfected it" says Sales Manager, Ed Tullar. Groschopp's AC motors are inverter duty classified. (read more)
The universal motor, an often maligned old workhorse, is actually a particularly adaptable motor, and still proves very useful in many applications. When an application calls for high starting torque, power, and speed - all combined in a small, lightweight package - the Universal Motor (UM) often emerges as the clear choice. (read more)
The customer required a high performance, unique design gearmotor assembly for its heavy automotive (bus) shifter. Their vision was a motor with a "back up" winding inside the armature that could be engaged in the event of a primary winding failure. (read more)
A manufacturer of high performance products including pumps, valves and mixers needed a motor for their portable hydraulic pumps. They trust us to not only choose the motor, but as a partner to source a special cast housing. (read more)
There are times when a completely custom motor over the life and scale of a project will have an overall lower production cost with a relatively short payback time because you are paying specifically for the motor you need. This weighing of a Customized Standard Design versus the Blank Sheet Custom Design. (read more)
This dual output Permanent Magnet DC (PMDC) Planetary Gearmotor drives two hinged arms on an automated surgical table used in orthopedic surgery. It was designed so that the two hinged arms would be positionally aligned, and their movement synchronized at all times. It was designed to eliminate the need for link chains or belts - and provide a positive mechanical actuation interface. (read more)
IP66 Fractional HP Motors and Gearmotors for OEMs provide reliable operation and long life in applications where dust and/or moisture intrusion are present. Product line includes Permanant Magnet DC, Brushless DC and AC Induction motors from 0.05 HP to 1.0 HP. Motors can be coupled with Right Angle, Parallel Shaft or Planetary Reducers to create an integrated, IP66-rated gearmotor solution. (read more)
