What Is NORD Drivesystems?

A drive system is the combination of mechanical and electrical components that control how industrial equipment moves — converting raw motor power into usable torque, speed, and direction. It typically includes a gearbox, motor, and some form of electronic control like a variable frequency drive (VFDs) or starter.

NORD Drivesystems builds complete, modular drive systems that bring all three of those elements together — and engineers them to work seamlessly across a wide range of applications. That modular approach means better efficiency, easier integration, and fewer headaches when it’s time for service or replacement.

Unlike brands that just focus on one part of the system, NORD delivers the whole package. Whether you’re powering a crane, conveyor, mixer, or packaging line, their products are designed to deliver consistent motion control — with real flexibility and long-term performance built in. And when it’s time to repair or reconfigure, Engineered Lifting Systems can support the entire process.

NORD Gearbox Distributor St. Louis - NORD Parts and Replacements

NORD Drivesystems Support from a Certified Distributor

As a trusted NORD Drivesystems Distributor and full-service repair provider, Engineered Lifting Systems supports every stage of your equipment’s life cycle. Whether you’re sourcing a brake assembly, troubleshooting a system fault, or deciding whether to repair or replace a gearbox, we help you keep critical motion systems online — fast.

Parts Distribution

We stock a wide selection of OEM NORD parts for immediate shipment — including gearboxes, motors, brakes, torque arms, and Flexbloc components. If it’s not on our shelves, we’ll source it quickly through NORD’s U.S. distributor network.

System Diagnostics

When a drive system underperforms, it’s rarely just one issue. Our technicians can perform on-site or in-shop inspections to diagnose electrical faults, gearbox wear, brake drag, or VFD errors. We’ll isolate the failure point and recommend the most cost-effective fix — not just swap parts and hope.

Repair & Rebuilds

Not every component needs to be replaced. Our team can rebuild worn gearboxes, resurface components, and install new seals, bearings, and electricals to bring your system back to spec. We also support NORD retrofit projects when you’re upgrading or expanding an existing application.

Here’s what a typical NORD gearbox rebuild includes:

  • Complete Teardown: The unit is fully disassembled, cleaned, and inspected for wear, cracks, or damage.
  • Replacement of Worn Parts: Bearings, seals, shims, and gaskets are swapped with OEM or equivalent components.
  • Resurfacing and Machining: Worn gears, bores, and faces are reconditioned or machined back to spec.
  • Reassembly and Testing: The rebuilt unit is sealed, reassembled, and tested under load before it goes back in the field.

Emergency Support

Downtime isn’t an option. We offer expedited turnaround for NORD Drivesystems repairs and part fulfillment — including weekend and after-hours support when needed. Call 866-756-1200 for urgent help, or contact us online to schedule service.

Where NORD Drivesystems Are Used

NORD Drivesystems are built to solve real motion challenges — not just fit a spec sheet. You’ll find them powering everything from high-speed packaging lines to precision-controlled hoists in steel mills. Their systems are modular, adaptable, and engineered to handle the environments and workloads that industrial operations throw at them.

Here are a few of the most common places we support NORD components in the field:

  • Distribution and Logistics: Conveyor systems, automated storage, and parcel handling
  • Beverage and Food Production: Sanitary-grade motors and gearboxes for washdown environments
  • Packaging: High-cycle machinery for sealing, labeling, and palletizing
  • Conveying Systems: Integrated drive solutions for short- and long-run conveyor lines
  • Weighing and Dosing Systems: Precision motion for batching and material flow
  • Steel and Metal Processing: Drives built to handle heat, shock loads, and heavy-duty torque
  • Cranes and Hoists: Controlled lift systems where load safety and repeatability are critical

From food-grade conveyors to heavy-duty hoists, we’ve seen NORD drives succeed in some of the toughest applications out there. Let’s talk through your setup and find a solution that actually fits.

Why Choose NORD Drivesystems?

NORD Drivesystems doesn’t just sell motors and gearboxes — they build complete, modular systems engineered for long-term performance and real-world serviceability. Their components are made to work together from the start, with flexibility built in and no need for one-off workarounds.

Key advantages of NORD Drivesystems include:

  • Oversized internal bearings that absorb shock loads and extend service life in heavy-duty environments
  • nsd tupH surface treatments that protect against moisture, washdowns, and corrosive chemicals — ideal for food-grade and harsh environments
  • Lightweight aluminum housings that reduce total system weight without sacrificing strength
  • Modular design that simplifies integration and makes future changes or expansions easier to manage
  • Serviceable construction that allows gear units to be opened, rebuilt, and put back to work — not discarded

That combination of durability, adaptability, and low lifetime cost makes NORD a top choice for demanding environments. And when you need parts, service, or a second opinion on what’s failing, Engineered Lifting Systems is the NORD Drivesystems Distributor that keeps things moving.

Frequently Asked Questions About NORD Drivesystems

How long does a NORD Drivesystems repair or rebuild take?
That depends on the type of unit, the extent of wear, and parts availability. Most repairs are completed in 5–10 business days. Complex assemblies or units requiring factory-sourced parts may take longer — contact us to confirm your timeline.
Do you stock NORD parts in-house?
Yes — Engineered Lifting Systems carries a wide range of NORD parts, including gear units, electric motors, VFDs, and brake assemblies. Stocking these allows us to turn around rebuilds and repairs quickly. If we don’t have what you need, we’ll source it through NORD’s U.S. distributor network.
Can I replace just one part of a NORD Drivesystem?
Usually, yes. NORD’s modular design allows you to service or replace gearboxes, motors, and control components independently. Whether you’re upgrading one section or troubleshooting a failure, we can help determine the most cost-effective fix.
What kinds of applications use NORD Drivesystems?
You’ll find NORD Drivesystems in food processing plants, distribution centers, material handling systems, packaging lines, wastewater facilities, and crane applications — anywhere torque, speed, and uptime matter. See examples here.
