Customised

Custom motors

Inside: Everything you expect from a Gibbons electric motor – energy efficiency, superior quality and outstanding reliability.

Outside: A fully-customised product that meets your exact specification.

If you’re a manufacturer of motor-driven equipment such as conveyors, mixers and compressors then what better way to make a professional impression than a bespoke motor?

We offer low-cost customised electric motors for OEMs, with the following features available.

Fitted with a tailored nameplate

We’ll stamp your motor’s nameplate with bespoke information including your company logo, part number and contact details.

Mechanically modified to suit your application

For specialist applications where a standard motor off the shelf won’t do, we provide:

  • Shaft variations (including stainless-steel shafts)
  • Modified flanges
  • Multi mount options
  • Special motors in 100/115V and 50/60Hz
  • Aluminium frames, which are light and offer high corrosion resistance

Painted in the colour of your choice

Whether it’s to match your company logo or to blend in with the driven equipment, we’ll gladly supply your motor in whatever colour you desire.

Maximum protection

If your motor’s to be used in an aggressive environment, we can offer a number of protective measures to keep it in perfect working order:

  • Class F insulation with Class B temperature rise
  • Sealed or shielded bearings and use of special grease packs to suit high-temperature applications
  • Vacuum varnishing for enhanced insulation in tropical conditions.

Gibbons Stainless-Steel Motors

Rated IP69K for water resistance, our stainless-steel electric motors are ideal for food and beverage processing and chemical/pharmaceutical applications where high-pressure jets are used during washdown. These corrosion-resistant motors ensure the highest standards of hygiene can be maintained, with no cooling fins or rating plate where bacteria and other contaminants can thrive.

Benefits include:

  • Fully-enclosed IP69K casing is dust tight and resistant to high-pressure water jets
  • Completely-smooth, paint-free surface removes contamination risk
  • Up to IE4 energy efficiency, ensuring compliance with EU MEPS legislation
  • No nameplate – ratings are laser engraved

Technical details:

  • 63–90L IEC frame size
  • IP69K ingress protection
  • IE3 efficiency (Pn ≥ 0.75kW)
  • Available as 4-pole
  • S1 duty
  • Maximum temperature 60°C

Combine your stainless-steel motor with an ABB drive for even greater savings.

For the gold standard in process control and energy reduction, choose a completely waterproof ABB ACS355 variable-speed drive to accompany your stainless-steel motors.

These drives are rated at IP66/67 ingress protection, meaning they’re dust tight and can resist powerful water jets and immersion up to a depth of one metre – ideal for ultra-hygienic applications where high-pressure washdowns can damage standard equipment.

Ordering a variable-speed drive from an ABB authorised value provider such as Gibbons means users benefit from installation and commissioning along with unrivalled technical expertise, training and lifecycle support.

Combining a Gibbons stainless-steel electric motor with the ABB ACS355 drive offers operators in the food and beverage, chemical and pharmaceutical industries the ultimate waterproof control package at market-leading value.
