In electric motors, the housing structure is just as important as performance. The housing protects the motor while also influencing heat dissipation, durability, and ease of installation. In industrial applications, choosing the right motor body extends service life and improves efficiency.

There are two main types of motor housings: aluminum body and cast iron body. Each is suited for different operating conditions and applications.

1. Aluminum Body Electric Motors

  • Lightweight design for easy installation

  • High thermal conductivity for better cooling

  • Ideal for portable systems

  • Corrosion-resistant

  • Commonly used in low and medium power motors

2. Cast Iron Body Electric Motors

  • Perfect for heavy-duty industrial applications

  • Highly resistant to harsh environments

  • Vibration-absorbing for quieter operation

  • Excellent mechanical strength

  • Typically used in high kW motors

When choosing a motor body, factors like ambient conditions (dust, humidity, temperature), motor power, and operating duration must be considered.
