Selected project experience
MotiraTech supports industrial projects involving direct-drive systems, energy storage, industrial integration, commissioning, and remote field operations. Customer names, site locations, system configurations, operating data and project results are published selectively, and may be withheld where confidentiality, contractual obligations or client authorization requirements apply.
Verification and publication permission are separate questions. A project can be fully documented internally while being inappropriate for public disclosure. Client authorization determines what appears on this page.
Where our project experience sits
The engagement areas in which MotiraTech supports industrial projects. Each states which activities are performed directly and which are coordinated through qualified third parties.

Operator field reports — permanent magnet drum motors
Field reports issued by operating plants after permanent magnet direct-drive drum motors were placed in service. The reports were provided to MotiraTech as manufacturer documentation for the drum motor range we engineer and integrate. Site and company identities are withheld; the figures below are reproduced as recorded by the operators, not as MotiraTech performance guarantees.

Conveyor drive replacement trial
110 kW permanent magnet drum motor, 800 × 1000 mm, 2 m/s, 380 V, replacing induction motor, reducer, coupling and driven pulley
Retrofit trial; production technology department report
- Reducer, fluid coupling, coupling and separate driven pulley removed from the drive train.
- Operator reported fewer unplanned stoppages and a reduced spare-parts inventory for the drive section.
Fuel supply workshop conveyor (M301C)
55 kW forced air-cooled explosion-protected permanent magnet drum motor, 800 × 800 mm, 2.5 m/s, 380 V, with 75 kW drive cabinet
Purchased March 2022; report issued November 2022
- Flameproof joint clearances on the terminal box measured 0.1–0.2 mm, within the operator's acceptance standard after service.
- Phase-to-earth and phase-to-phase insulation measured above 100 MΩ at 2500 V, unchanged from factory values.
- Cooling air and coil temperatures held below 50 °C in steady operation.
- Operator reported a measured energy saving above 36 % compared with the previous induction-motor drive.
Enclosed raw material yard conveyor (A203R)

Trial June 2020 to September 2020
- Test method: three months of metered consumption on the original induction drive, then three months on the permanent magnet drum motor.
- Objectives recorded by the plant were energy and operating performance, belt mistracking correction, lower maintenance cost and higher availability.
- Switchgear, motor, reducer, coupling and driven pulley of the original system were removed in the conversion.
Three levels of project disclosure
Every engagement is classified by what the client authorizes for publication. Confidential work is a normal part of industrial project delivery — not an evidence gap.
Public reference
Projects for which MotiraTech holds sufficient authorization to publish the customer or site identity, scope, technical information, photographs, and approved results.
Anonymized project reference
Real project experience described by industry, application, technical challenge, MotiraTech scope and general solution — with customer identity, exact location, commercially sensitive specifications and confidential operating data withheld.
Confidential project experience
Projects and engagements that cannot be published in detail because of NDA, contractual restrictions, customer confidentiality, commercial sensitivity, security considerations, or lack of publication authorization.
What confidentiality does not mean
- The absence of a public customer name does not mean the absence of project experience.
- The absence of public photographs does not mean the absence of deployment.
- The absence of published performance data does not mean no performance data exists.
- NDA and confidential work are not treated as evidence deficiencies.
How project information is classified
- Verified and publicly publishable.
- Verified but published in anonymized form.
- Verified but confidential.
- Requiring internal verification before any use — the only category withheld on evidence grounds.
How a project is described when the customer is confidential
Where genuine project information can be described without breaching confidentiality, references are published in this structure. Entries appear here only when corresponding internal project information exists.

- Sector and application area, e.g. mining / bulk material handling
- Application
- The system or process involved, e.g. conveyor drive modernization
- Project type
- The nature of the engagement, e.g. industrial drive integration
- MotiraTech scope
- Only the verified scope of supply and engineering role
- Challenge
- Non-confidential description of the constraint addressed
- Solution
- Non-confidential description of the approach taken
- Location
- Canada / International / region only, where disclosure is permitted
- Customer
- Confidential unless written authorization exists
- Project data
- Confidential where required by the client or contract
Need reference detail for an evaluation?
Describe the application you are evaluating. We will share the applicable project experience and technical detail directly, at the disclosure level our client obligations permit.
How a project becomes a published reference
Documentation and disclosure authorization are tracked separately; a reference appears here only when the client has authorized the level of detail published.
- STEP 01
Internal project record
Scope, interfaces, execution conditions and outcomes are documented during the engagement. This record exists independently of whether the project is ever published.
- STEP 02
Disclosure classification
Each project is classified as publicly publishable, publishable in anonymized form, or confidential — based on the client's authorization and contractual terms, not on the quality of the underlying documentation.
- STEP 03
Client review
Where any disclosure is proposed, the client reviews how their site, process and results would be described.
- STEP 04
Written authorization
Customer names, site identification, quantitative results and photography are published only with written consent.
- STEP 05
Selective publication
Authorized references are published here at the disclosure level the client has approved — public or anonymized.
