Benefit From NORD as Your Partner in Battery Cell Production

Our Portfolio and Services Deliver:

NORD solutions are engineered for strength and long service life, maintaining dependable operation under wide temperature swings, heavy axial or radial loads, and continuous duty.

IIoT-based condition monitoring provides real-time visibility into system health and supports predictive maintenance. When service is needed, NORD’s 24/7 support network spans more than 80 countries, ensuring rapid response near your facility.

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

Fast acceleration, high operating speeds, and scalable system designs enable consistent production flow. A modular product platform simplifies integration while sourcing everything from one supplier.

Copper- and zinc-free coatings help reduce contamination risk throughout the battery cell manufacturing process.

Design features such as the UNICASE™ housing and Drywell VL3 bearing for vertical output shafts prevent leakage. Plug-and-play configurations simplify installation and significantly 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 system components, and maintenance-friendly designs.

By addressing the entire drive application, NORD unlocks additional savings opportunities, including reduced system variants and simplified inventory.

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 are equipped with advanced contamination protection that extends well beyond leak prevention.

A coating developed specifically for battery cell production eliminates the use of copper and zinc. This reduces the risk of ionization 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
