The right ATEX motor in-house in no time at all thanks to ready knowledge
The right ATEX motor in-house in no time at all thanks to ready knowledge
It fills us with pride to announce that more colleaguas have all acquired the official ATEX certificate.
In addition to the fact that we have shelved quite a stock of ATEX motors by Cemp, we are now able to offer professional guidance and modify the motors according to ATEX guidelines. All this within a very short space of time.
These men were intensely trained by an authorised instructor for two days. A representative from each relevant department within Kolmer followed this training and concluded it with an official exam. Everyone passed! We greatly appreciate our employees and thank them for their efforts and drive.
Why the expansion of knowledge and a large stock of ATEX motors?
Read the interview with employee Chris Huijgens, working at Kolmer since 1987:
Spare motor in stock at supplier
Ever since Kolmer Electric Motors was established, we've been well disposed towards Cemp and Cantoni Motor. Our portfolio consists of an extensive range of motors of both these brands and with a superfast delivery as we can supply most of these from stock. Sales employee Chris Huijgens has been working at Kolmer since 1987 and knows our customers as well as the Cemp motors like no other. Chris: ‘Nowadays speed is considered very important. I remember well that companies used to have a spare motor in stock. In today's world we've actually taken over that job as supplier. Employees of a ship on its way to the harbour e-mail us to make sure that the motor is ready and waiting on the quayside upon arrival. This kind of speed happens to be one of our strengths.’
Chris: ‘Thanks to a wide range in stock in addition to our own workshop we can sometimes be four times quicker than other suppliers.’
0.12 to 200 kilowatt
All Cemp Ex db motors (explosion-proof and pressure-resistant motors) are neatly shelved in the Kolmer warehouse, Chris shares. So, do you need a standard variant of the high-quality Cemp motor, from 0.12 to 200 kilowatt? We can supply it in no time at all: https://www.kolmer.nl/motoren/cemp/ It's also possible to order specialised variants, such as a six- or eight-pole motor, and have it in-house within two to three weeks. Very large or specific models may take five to six weeks maximum.
Top of the segment
Cemp Ex db electric motors are produced in a factory in Senago, a suburb of Milan. Cemp motors are incredibly versatile, according to Chris. ‘Brake or anchor winch motors, we supply anything that's considered special. And whether it concerns the navy or chemical industry, Cemp motors meet all safety requirements. They are devices of an exceptionally high quality that are often used offshore, for example. They are the driving force for capstans when pulling large ships towards the quayside.' You can also find Cemp motors in fans and mixers throughout the chemical industry. Dustproof, pressure- and fire-resistant and totally spark-proof. Chris: ‘These are heavy, cast-iron motors. Really the top of the segment. Obviously each small electric motor meets the European IE2 Standard, while each larger (three-phase) motor meets the IE3 Standard.
‘We can build anything and do it really fast!’
The fast delivery of Cemp motors is partly due to Kolmer being able to build specials in-house, says Chris. ‘Kolmer is Cemp's point of contact in the Benelux. As the only certified distributor, we (and a number of our dealers) are authorised to implement all kinds of modifications.’
‘We can, for example, integrate temperature monitoring and breakdown heating, make different shafts, adapt flanges and we can obviously deliver the motors in any desired colour with or without Kolmer Top Coating.’
‘Our customers often use Cemp motors in combination with other machines, such as fans or pumps. It's of the utmost importance that processes are not brought to a standstill and that every part is delivered on time. Ships must continue to sail and machines must keep on running. Chris: ‘The combination of speed and high quality makes Cemp a very appealing option for our customers. And it's a method of working that fits Kolmer like a glove. Almost every company claims that the customer is key. We want to live up to that promise, time and time again, and we can do that with this product and service. I'm proud of that and I'm convinced that in this respect we'll have many happy customers in the coming year!’
When customised/custom-made solutions are required, Kolmer Electric Motors will pull out all the stops to fully accommodate our wishes. Customised/custom-made solutions are all about details and they are very good at that!
