electrical motors that power heavy equipment with less energy

Songatech supplies reliable electrical motors for crushers, pumps, conveyors, fans, and more. Built for harsh plant conditions, these motors run efficiently and last longer so production stays on schedule.

Key facts

  • Applications: Crushers, slurry pumps, conveyors, fans, compressors, mills
  • Types: Low voltage and high voltage, slip ring, flameproof or explosion proof
  • Power range: 0.75 kW to 5 MW
  • Voltages: 380 V, 525 V, 690 V, and high voltage up to 11 kV
  • Mountings: Foot or flange, horizontal or vertical
  • Efficiency classes: IE2, IE3, IE4 high efficiency

Overview

Mining and processing plants expose motors to dust, vibration, moisture, and long run hours. Songatech motors use heavy duty bearings, high grade insulation, and robust enclosures so they keep running with minimal maintenance.

High efficiency Heavy duty bearings Robust enclosures

Benefits

  • High efficiency that reduces power consumption
  • Reliable under continuous operation in tough conditions
  • Long service life with reinforced bearings and cooling
  • Explosion proof options for hazardous zones
  • Wide power and voltage range to match plant needs

Low Voltage Motors

Standard drives for pumps, fans, and conveyors. Available in IE2 and IE3 efficiency classes with foot or flange mounting.

LV drives

High Voltage Motors

Up to 11 kV for large crushers, mills, and compressors. Built for high power with low losses and strong insulation systems.

Up to 11 kV

Slip Ring Motors

High starting torque for crushers and mills. Smooth starts protect gearboxes and couplings during heavy load pick up.

High starting torque

Explosion Proof Motors

Certified flameproof for underground or hazardous areas with gas or dust. Enclosures built for safe operation.

Hazardous zones

Energy Efficient Motors

IE3 and IE4 motors that cut energy cost without losing reliability. Ideal for fans and compressors with long duty cycles.

IE3 and IE4
