Industrial electric motors are the driving force behind countless industries, from manufacturing to agriculture, converting electrical energy into mechanical force to power essential machinery. With the growing global emphasis on optimising energy consumption, selecting reliable, high-performance motors has become imperative. In this context, we are proud to present two of our world-renowned WEG electric motor ranges: the W21 series in aluminium and the W22 series in cast iron.
Multi-mount aluminum casing for European market
WEG W21 aluminum motors are recognized for their excellent quality, reliability and efficiency, offering the same benefits as the robust cast iron range, but with a lightweight construction and a design that provides unmatched flexibility, as the terminal box can be positioned at the top or on both sides, with the possibility of rotating it in 90° steps to facilitate the connection of the power cables in any position. This unique system eliminates the need for mechanical modifications to the motor feet, greatly simplifying installation.
Furthermore, the innovative design of this range offers the added benefit of standardization and flexibility in stock, allowing the use of a single motor for different mounting configurations and ensuring full interchangeability with existing cast iron motors.
Complementing the wide range of industrial motors, the W21 series also offers specific designs for defined applications. In addition to the standard multi-mounting version, brake motors, single-phase motors, marine motors and TEAO motors (IC 418) for ventilation and exhaust gas applications are available. These specialized versions adapt perfectly to all application needs, maintaining the same reliability, ease of maintenance, reduced energy consumption and flexibility.
Cast iron casing for European market
WEG W22 cast iron motors are our answer to the growing global demand for energy efficiency. With electric motors accounting for nearly 40% of the world’s energy consumption, optimising their operation is crucial for a sustainable future. WEG has taken up this challenge with this series, a new generation of motors that surpasses the already excellent performance of the previous, renowned line.
The result is a motor that offers tangible, measurable benefits: less noise and vibration, for a more comfortable working environment and longer machine life; maximum energy efficiency, with a significant reduction in heat emissions and operating costs; simplified maintenance, for uninterrupted operation and less downtime; full compatibility with current and future speed control technologies, ensuring flexibility and adaptability; and a flexible, modular design, to integrate seamlessly into any application.
The W22 series embodies our commitment to cleaner, more efficient energy. It is our promise for a future where technology and sustainability go hand in hand, offering solutions that improve not only industrial performance, but also the quality of life.
