NORD Drivesystems

A very special project – Heavy duty work for industrial gear units from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS in the Alps

In an extremely demanding construction project in the Swiss Alps, at an altitude of around 1700 metres and almost 600 metres inside a mountain, large chambers are being excavated to form the new expanded underground centre of a pumped storage hydroelectric power station that will increase its present power output from 480 MW to 1480 MW. With an extreme incline of 45 degrees and a height difference of approximately 180 m, conveyor systems in a sub-station are transporting 500 t of excavated material per hour, around the clock, using conveyor belts that are driven by NORD industrial gear units.
