About one out of every two geared motors newly commissioned by the Indian steel industry in the last year has come from the Indian operation of German drive technology leader NORD DRIVESYSTEMS. NORD has become the major mover in the steel and metals sector, peaking at a record 46% of the total drive sales volume in this segment in 2013. NORD has now supplied over several thousand geared motor units to dozens of OEMs as well as all major plant builders and operators in the business across India.
