Bonora Components for Quality and Endurance

February 15, 2025

Motori Bonora were founded over 70 years ago in the heart of Italy’s mechanical industry, and they have carved a niche for themselves specialising in high quality asynchronous electric motors. The Bonora components are designed with intention and built with precision, and are trusted by a wide variety of industries where failure is not an option.

Here we take a closer look at asynchronous motors and the Bonora motors available through YB Components.

How Asynchronous Motors Work

Also called induction motors, asynchronous motors are the workhorses of modern industry, found in everything from hydraulic lifts to textile machines. Unlike synchronous motors, the rotors of Bonora components don’t spin at the exact speed of the stator’s magnetic field. This slight mismatch or slip generates torque, while the stator’s alternating current creates a rotating magnetic field, inducing current in the rotor and setting it in motion without direct electrical contact. There are no brushes or commutators, just pure electromagnetic ingenuity that results in an efficient, low maintenance motor that boasts a long service life.

The Motari Bonora motors range includes both single-phase and three-phase options, spanning IEC frame sizes from 56 to 160, with pole configurations ranging from 2 to 8. They adhere to stringent European EC directives as well as UL cURus standards for North American markets, making them a good choice for companies with global operations. Their IE2 and IE3 efficiency-rated motors are especially good for saving energy without sacrificing performance.

Motari Bonora Motors Customisation

All of the Bonora components are typically robust and adaptable, and can be crafted to meet precise specifications. Unlike generic alternatives, these motors can be tailored to fit complex applications, with Bonora often designing directly from client blueprints.

Whether it’s a brake motor with precise stopping power, or an ATEX-certified unit for explosive environments, Bonora will provide a solution. They can even build compact motors with external fan cooling. The range is broad, so you can speak to the experts at YB Components who can help you find the ideal option for your application.

Applications of Motari Bonora Components

The Bonora motors are used in many different industries and applications, including woodworking machines, hydraulic power units, ventilation systems and industrial automation. If it moves, pumps, cuts, grinds or lifts, chances are Bonora has a motor that fits.

They’re found in coffee grinders and textile machines, as well as in mechanical meat processing equipment. Dry-cleaning systems, air pumps and balancing machines also need asynchronous motors, with the common theme of all these applications being the need for consistent quality and endurance.
