From agribusiness to Industry 4.0: The applications of Mercosul motors

The energy that moves different sectors

Have you ever stopped to think about the importance of electric motors in our daily lives? Even when they go unnoticed, they are what keep essential equipment moving for industry, the countryside, and the city.

At Mercosul Motores, transforming energy into motion is what moves us. In another article, we already discussed the factors that influence the choice of the ideal motor; now it's time to show where our motors are present, driving productivity, technology, and efficiency in different sectors.

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), electric motors account for more than 45% of global electricity consumption, which reinforces the importance of investing in high energy efficiency and nationally manufactured solutions.

Single-phase motors: Versatility for the field, commerce, and general use

Mercosul single-phase motors are synonymous with robustness, reliability, and durability. Designed for domestic, commercial, and rural applications, they offer continuous performance, low consumption, and easy maintenance. All models follow the ABNT NBR IEC 60034 standards, ensuring safety, performance, and compliance with INMETRO for energy efficiency.

Main models and applications:
