High Voltage
Like many people from my generation, I was first introduced to the concepts of alternating current and direct current from the moniker of the iconic rock band AC/DC. It wasn’t until I reached my physics class in high school, however, that I learned the importance of these two electrical charges.
As you can probably ascertain, direct current is a charge that never changes it direction. Due to its consistency and low wattage, direct current is commonly found in low-voltage devices, especially those that are powered by batteries, which have constant positive and negative sides. Alternating current, on the other hand, reverses direction periodically and creates much more energy; it is utilized in everything from household and business electricity to an AC motor
Baldor Motor
Baldor motors are a common thought when one hears the company Baldor, but Baldor also has a more extensive line of products. Baldor carries many products including AC motors & controls, DC motors & controls, servo motors & controls, gear motors & products, linear motors & products (as pictured), and much more!
Baldor Electric Motors
When choosing an motor, a Baldor motor is the way to go. When selecting a Baldor motor you know you will be receiving a high- quality motor, great service, low cost, and you will receive it in time.
Koss Industrial, Inc. is a distributor of Baldor Electric Motors.
3 Phase Motor
Koss Industrial, Inc. offers a wide variety of 3 phase motors; whether you are looking for a Baldor, Leeson, or even a Gator motor, Koss has what you need.
A 3 phase motor is a motor with a continuous series of three overlapping AC cycles that are offset by 120 degrees. Three-phase power is used for all large AC motors.
Three Phase Motor Basics
When selecting a motor, there are a few major decisions to make, and one of the biggest is whether to choose a one or a three phase motor. The three-phase models feature three hot leads, which means that there is less time between peaks in the current. Each leg that is carrying power is at a peak for one third of the time while the other two rotate through.
This cycle allows the motor to run more smoothly than one-phase units. It also creates a magnetic field that rotates in a specific direction, allowing for a more simplistic motor design. Generally three phase motors are more compact and cheaper than their one-phase counterparts as well.
Connex Motor
Koss Industrial, Inc. offers a wide variety of stainless steel motors–including the connex motor, which is also referred to as a gator motor. This motor is three phase with a c-face. If your looking for the lowest price on a motors, this is the motor for you.
Cheese Making Equipment
Koss Industrial, Inc. offers a large array of stainless steel cheese making equipment, both new and reconditioned. For example, Koss’ manufactures process cheese cookers, cheese grinders, HTST systems, curd pails, CIP systems, sanitary conveyors, clean catwalks, sanitary floor drains, and much more.
Baldor’s Stainless Steel Motors with Premimum Efficency
Baldor offers a line of AC Motors that includes a Premium Efficiency line that are made of stainless steel. This Baldor motor is also referred to as a Super-E Motor. The Super-E Motor was designed with the goal to conserve energy over extended periods of time. Baldor has these premium efficency motors in three-phase and single-phase designs.
The Next Step in the Evolution of Energy
With all of the economic turmoil of recent months, people have been drawing numerous comparisons to the novel Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. In the novel, there is a similar economic downturn that must be managed by the increasingly helpless people in the government and society. The story has many characters and subplots, but one of the most intriguing is the development of a motor that utilizes the Earth’s kinetic energy.
Humans are unimaginably innovative when it comes to technological advances in energy, from harnessing fire all the way to stainless steel motors. With the increasing research into green, renewable energy, it is hard to believe that they next major revolution in this industry is far off. For all of the economic examples that are drawn from Atlas Shrugged, the most important idea in the novel may be the future of how we create, store and utilize energy.
Powder Funnel
Koss Industrial, Inc. engineers, fabricates, & manufactures sanitary stainless steel powder funnels.
Powder funnels are not only used to quickly mix powders, but can also be used for various tasks, such as rapidly reconstituting a liquid concentrate. Another feature of Koss’ powder funnels is the ability to CIP clean the unit making it even more cost effective.
These powder funnels are designed with a built-in powder inducer which minimizes the moisture crawling into the funnel, which in turn helps prevent clogging of the lower funnel area.
