rotating machines
Large power induction motors up to 40 MW
Robust, compact, customizable
Innovative electrical and mechanical power solutions
GE manufactured motors and generators for some of the first commercial and industrial electrical applications more than 125 years ago.
Our machines operate efficiently in the most challenging applications and severe environments where reliability and ease of maintenance is critical.
Our induction motors are available up to 40 MW and are fully customizable to match our customers requirements at whatever speed, from the method of cooling to the smallest accessory.
GE induction motors are highly reliable thanks to their rotor cage construction, the elimination of the retaining rings and they can be load tested at our factory. Our proprietary design allows for low vibration and high-power density
Features and benefits
