Motors for OEMs now include AC variants
Power transmission specialist Motovario, one of the largest gear unit manufacturers in Europe, has extended production to include AC motors for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
PPT, which employs a team of nine, was presented with the award by Motovario, one of the world's leading power transmission manufacturers.
Motovario's European sales manager Carlo Degli Esposti presented a trophy to David Hodgson, managing director of PPT.
He said the partnership and support of regional based distributors was all part of the Motovario structure laid down to bring the product to market.
He added that service and support was particularly important in the Potteries with the launch of new bevel helical and helical H and B Series of gear units as direct replacements for most leading manufacturers' products.
PPT, which has been handling Motovario's products for 16 years, is developing a niche in the market for complete drive systems with energy saving advice.
"The service is particularly topical with the advent of the Climate Change Levy", said Hodgson.
