NORD Drivesystems is a global leader in drive technology, specializing in the development and manufacture of high-performance gear units, electric motors, and drive electronics. Renowned for their “UNICASE” one-piece housing design, NORD products offer superior strength, reliability, and precision.
With a massive modular system, NORD provides tailored drive solutions for over 100 industries, focusing on energy efficiency (up to IE5+ standards) and seamless integration into automated environments. From heavy-duty mining conveyors to delicate food processing lines, NORD is a benchmark for German engineering excellence.
High-efficiency drive units featuring the robust UNICASE housing for maximum reliability and quiet operation.
Heavy-duty units designed for high-torque applications up to 282,000 Nm.
A wide range of AC motors, including the ultra-high efficiency IE5+ permanent magnet synchronous motors.
Intelligent frequency inverters and motor starters for both control cabinet (NORDAC PRO) and decentralized (NORDAC ON) installation.
An innovative, integrated motor and gear unit concept in a single wash-down housing.
NORD’s modular drive solutions are designed for longevity in diverse operational environments. We supply these systems to:
High-efficiency LogiDrive systems for airport baggage handling and warehouse conveyors.
Hygienic, smooth-surface motors and “nsd tupH” surface treatments for wash-down zones.
Robust gear units for mining, cement, and grain silos.
Reliable drives for mixers, aerators, and pump systems.
Precise, electronically controlled drives for high-speed filling and wrapping.
Leicester Bearings provides more than just components; we offer complete drive system consultation. We work with site engineers to perform energy-saving audits, identifying where upgrading to NORD’s IE4 or IE5+ technology can drastically reduce TCO (Total Cost of Ownership).
Whether you are replacing a legacy worm gearbox with a more efficient helical-bevel unit or configuring a decentralized inverter system to simplify your cabling, our team ensures the final NORD solution is perfectly matched to your application’s torque and speed requirements.
As an official NORD partner, we bridge the gap between global manufacturing and local engineering needs. We provide access to NORD’s rapid assembly capabilities, often ensuring short lead times for customized geared motors. By leveraging our partner discounts, we ensure you receive premium drive technology at competitive prices. Our local service centers hold essential spares and standard motors, ensuring that if a critical drive fails, your production downtime is kept to an absolute minimum.
