MAKING OF THE HEART OF MACHINES

OEM Update recently toured the Pune facility of Motor Solutions business of Godrej Enterprises Group.

- 

The facility has an annual production capacity of over six million motors and offers more than 300+ customised stock-keeping units (SKUs) to cater to a wide range of industrial applications.

Located on a spacious 36-acre manufacturing campus in Shindewadi, Pune, the Motor Solutions division has been in operation since 1991. It benefits from a highly localised supply chain, with most of its vendors situated within a 100-kilometre radius. This positioning enables the business to leverage Pune's robust manufacturing and automotive ecosystem, allowing it to serve customers nationwide and to export markets, including the US and Europe.

The Motor Solutions business of Godrej Enterprises Group manufactures specialised electric motors, including hermetic compressor motors, custom-built three-phase and single-phase motors, and motor components such as wound stator and rotor assemblies, as well as laminations and stampings for various applications, across all segments in India and international markets.

The Pune facility is designed to produce high-efficiency motors that comply with global standards for productivity, safety, and environmental sustainability.

Green Transition and Miniaturisation in Motors

The facility is focused on making motors more environmentally friendly. Traditionally, compressor motors used in applications such as refrigeration have involved bulkier components and conventional gases. However, the transition to eco-friendly refrigerants demands changes in motor insulation and installation systems. Godrej is actively working on adopting new technologies that support these requirements.
