Menzel Elektromotoren GmbH, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, specializes in the production of large electric motors for industrial applications. Founded in 1927, the company offers a comprehensive range of asynchronous and synchronous motors, including squirrel cage and slip ring motors, with power outputs up to 25 MW. Menzel provides customized solutions tailored to sectors such as cement, steel, mining, and power plants. Their services encompass technical consulting, motor design, and rapid delivery from an extensive stock, ensuring minimal downtime for clients. Committed to quality and reliability, Menzel supports global operations with a focus on customer-specific adaptations and energy efficiency.
Menzel Elektromotoren built two bespoke slip ring motors to drive the mills in a cement plant in the Middle East: replicas of the original motors, each with two shaft ends and precisely fitting all existing interfaces.
When large motors operating at high output fail, a replacement manufactured from scratch can hardly be the solution because of the long lead times and the resultant loss of production.
German motor manufacturer Menzel Elektromotoren has recruited an industry expert as a representative in the U.S. to serve customers even better: Marc Amato has 27 years of experience in the electric motor and machine industry, particularly in motor manufacturing, re-manufacturing, troubleshooting, and machine applications.
Menzel Elektromotoren has built an asynchronous generator with a special shaft and a special flange for operation on a Pelton wheel in a Scandinavian hydroelectric power plant.
Working under high pressure, Menzel Elektromotoren completed two much-needed compressor motors and delivered them in just two weeks at the turn of the year, despite a company holiday from Christmas to the New Year.
