ABB launches high-output motors in India

27 Nov 2020 Editorial Team

ABB India announced the launch of a new range of low voltage, high-output, International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) induction M3BP motors for its industrial customers in India. These induction motors are compactly designed and require minimum space, thereby reducing the total size of the equipment and cost of ownership.

The M3BP motors are made-in-India process performance motors that deliver an output ranging from 75kW to 560kW and are offered in 280 – 355 frame size. Their compact design enables easy installation, commissioning, and maintenance. ABB’s presence in segments such as cement, pulp & paper, metals, water & wastewater and applications including, compressor, fan, crane and pump crusher is expected to further strengthen after the launch.

As mentioned by Sanjeev Arora, President, ABB Motion India, the motors are manufactured in their factories located in Bangalore and Faridabad.

These process performance motors are designed and built in line with the M3BP motors that are available at ABB’s global factories. They are used to power heavy duty applications in tough environments and to operate critical processes with minimum downtime.

ABB is a global engineering company based in Oerlikon, Switzerland. They have been connecting software to its electrification, robotics, automation and motion portfolio since the past 130 years and more.

Smart Roads, Smarter India

India’s infrastructure boom is not only about laying more kilometres of highways – it’s about building them smarter, safer and more sustainably. From drones mapping fragile Himalayan slopes to 3D machine-controlled graders reducing human error, technology is steadily reshaping the way projects are planned and executed. Yet, the journey towards digitisation remains complex, demanding not just capital but also coordination, training and vision.Until recently, engineers largely depended on Survey of India toposheets and traditional survey methods like total stations or DGPS to prepare detai..

Delay Analysis in Construction Arbitration

In construction disputes, ‘delay analysis’ is essential for establishing the cause of delay, which in turn determines whether the contractor is entitled to an extension of time and associated costs or whether the employer is justified in imposing liquidated damages. This article enunciates various methods employed in the analysis of construction delays. It provides a detailed overview of the techniques used to identify, quantify and apportion delays among project stakeholders that are critical for the resolution of disputes pertaining to extension of time (EOT) and substantiation of EOT cl..
