Motion Drives Package For The Mexican Tequila Industry
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) declared the agave landscapes and the old industrial facilities of Tequila, Jalisco, as cultural heritage.
At the end of 2023, WEG, through its branch in Mexico, supplied a highly recognised company in the tequila sector with two integrated packages that include electric motors, variable frequency drives (VFDs) and gearboxes, destined for two tequila factories in the municipalities of Tequila and Atotonilco.
Each package supplied consists of 15HP W22 electric motors, WG50 gearboxes, and CFW500 variable frequency drives, which will be used to control the speed in the agave grinding area. These components combine the quality of the electric motors, the frequency drives' reliability, and the gearboxes' robustness.
For WEG, the concept of motion drives is about having total control of the process. The main difference of this integrated solution is managing everything under the same brand, allowing perfect coupling of the equipment, ensuring its efficient functioning and reducing operating expenses.
This integrated package ensures efficiency in the process, contributing to increased operational savings.
