Large DC Motors
Louis Allis custom, large DC motors are used across all raw material industries, such as steel and aluminum, coal, aggregates, rubber, paper, and plastics, as well as heavy manufacturing, such as transport and autos. In the marine sector, Louis Allis has worked on large-frame DC motors for ship propulsion from standard dredges and tugboats to military vessels, such as U.S. Navy submarines, mine sweepers, and assault craft. Whatever the specification, low, high, or constant torque, low, high, or variable speeds, fast or slow acceleration, or quiet operation, we can design, engineer, and build a motor up to 20,000 hp for your applications.
We understand that many large DC motors are specialty, "one-of-a-kind" motors. That's why we specialize in providing timely repair and maintenance services at your site, helping reduce operational downtime. If your large-frame DC motor cannot be repaired onsite, we offer turnkey removal, rebuild, and re-installation services. If a replacement is needed, Louis Allis can also manufacture new motors designed to match any other manufacturer's footprint, form, fit, and function.
