Benefit From NORD as Your Partner in Battery Cell Production

Our Portfolio and Services Deliver:

NORD solutions are engineered for durability and long service life, maintaining reliable operation under wide temperature ranges, high axial and radial loads, and continuous duty.

IIoT-based condition monitoring provides real-time insight into system health and supports predictive maintenance strategies. When service is required, NORD’s 24/7 support network across more than 80 countries enables fast local response.

NORD delivers complete drive systems that combine gear units, motors, and drive electronics to achieve precise torque, speed, and positioning performance.

High acceleration capability, stable operating speeds, and scalable system designs support consistent production flow. A modular product platform simplifies integration and allows sourcing from a single supplier.

Copper- and zinc-free coatings help reduce contamination risk throughout battery cell production.

Design features such as the UNICASE™ housing and Drywell VL3 bearing for vertical output shafts help prevent leakage. Plug-and-play configurations simplify installation and reduce the risk of assembly errors.

NORD supports lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) through high-efficiency technologies such as the IE5+ synchronous motor, durable components, and maintenance-friendly designs.

By considering the full drive system, NORD also helps reduce system variants and simplify inventory, creating additional savings potential.

No Risk of Contamination:
0% Copper, 0% Zinc With NORD

NORD brings proven experience in highly sensitive production environments. For applications where contamination must be avoided, our drive components offer advanced protection that goes beyond leak prevention.

A coating developed specifically for battery cell production eliminates the use of copper and zinc. This helps reduce the risk of ion transfer between cathode and anode materials caused by drive components.

Key features include:

  • Coatings with 0% copper and 0% zinc
  • Replacement of galvanised components by corrosion-resistant V4A stainless steel, especially components such as screws, washers, screwed cable glands, oil lids and other components upon request
  • Fan covers manufactured from cold-rolled steel
